This is the third book in the Jill Kismet series, but the first one I've read. Normally I try to read a series in the proper order, but when I began this book I hadn't done my due diligence to find out if it was part of a series. Oh well. Luckily for me, this book can read as a stand-alone, and t...
I've found this series is getting better with each book. There's lots of action and rather gruesome details to make things interesting, if a bit stomach churning. The circus brings some interesting new characters/antagonists to the story. Jill also goes in a relatively new direction for her, away...
I enjoyed Flesh Circus. I liked that Saul was back for this book but I don't really feel like he was given the amount of time he deserved. I also liked that this was about a demon circus. I could see that happening and how people might respond to the siren's call and how the hunter simply had ...
The second installment in the Jill Kismet series was as good, if not better, than the first. In fact, I loved it. This is dark fantasy, really dark and gruesome. Young prostitutes are found mutilated and half eaten, their entrails gone, their eyes missing. They've been taken by an unknown type of...
Angel Town is book 6 of the Jill Kismet series. I read the first 5 because I got them as a set, however, even as a set, I couldn't finish reading Angel Town. The biggest issue I had with the series is the main characters didn't seem to learn or change or grow, keeping everything seemingly the sam...
Wow. Each time I finish a Lilith Saintcrow novel I'm left emotionally drained, and this time more than ever. I'm afraid to read on, yet I need to know what happens in the last installment... but I don't want the story to end. This world is terrible, terrifying, gory and dark, and from a hunter's ...
I spent the majority of this book confused. I had no idea what was going on, there were cockroaches everywhere, Saul was being a weirdo, Jill was being a weirdo, the Cirque was creepy, and Jill's "sea-urchin aura" kept spiking everywhere. I'm rating this up mainly because I like Jill quite a bit,...
I enjoyed this one quite a bit - the story was interesting and multi-layered. Jill is asked by a cop and personal friend to look into something that at first doesn't seem to be her kind of thing. As a favor, she digs into it, as in the same day seems other nightmares come into play.I think the st...
always enjoy her books Full of nice ideas, but don't any allure. Reading was very unenjoyable experience.
Fun book. Looking forward to the series. the beginning of the book was a little difficult to get into but by the end I was intrigued.
Jill is really damaged, which makes her more real than a lot of other female characters. I was depressed while reading this book. It's full and I mean really full of blood, gore and her issues with pretty much everything in her life. Nevertheless, I liked it. The past came back in this second boo...
This is the first book in the series by Lillith Saintcrow, the author of the Dante Valentine books. I loved Dante Valentine, and now Jill Kismet is on the list too. In this series, Jill Kismet is an executioner/exorcist who works the Nightside bringing down the criminals that the police can't. Th...
