Review: Unholy Ghosts by Stacia Kane

The world is not the way it was. The dead have risen, and the living are under attack. The powerful Church of Real Truth, in charge since the government fell, has sworn to reimburse citizens being harassed by the deceased. Enter Chess Putnam, a fully tattooed witch and freewheeling ghost hunter. She’s got a real talent for banishing the wicked dead. But Chess is keeping a dark secret: She owes a lot of money to a murderous drug lord named Bump, who wants immediate payback in the form of a dangerous job that involves black magic, human sacrifice, a nefarious demonic creature, and enough wicked energy to wipe out a city of souls. Toss in lust for a rival gang leader and a dangerous attraction to Bump’s ruthless enforcer, and Chess begins to wonder if the rush is really worth it. Hell, yeah.

Author: Stacia Kane
Publication: May 19th 2010
Format: Paperback, 346 pages
Disclaimer: This book was purchased by me

Have you ever started a book where after the first few pages you *know* you've got an interesting read?  Something so unique and different and off the beaten path that you say to yourself *what the heck?*  Enter the world of Unholy Ghosts and you'll meet Chess Putnam. Churchwitch. Debunker. Functional Drug Addict.  Yeah I said it -- Functional Drug Addict.  Interested yet?

Author Stacia Kane has created a world where there's no such thing as Casper the Friendly Ghost -- more like House on Haunted Hill-want to kill you- type of ghosts and the Church of Real Truth uses magic to keep them under control and the world at-large safe.  Toss in drug lords and a sexy enforcer named Terrible and you've got a recipe for great story... a fantastic series and just pages and pages of simple awesomeness better known as The Downside.

I can't sing enough praises about Unholy Ghosts and Stacia Kane.  Her world is so unique and different, it pulls you right in.  Unholy Ghosts is the first book in the Downside series. I've read all three and will post reviews for all three.  If you're craving for something fresh and new to add to your Urban Fantasy shelves - get with The Downside - you won't be disappointed.


Get your read on, AYE?
