Demon Bound is the second book in the Black London series by Caitlin Kittredge. You can visit the author here.
The Blurb
Thirteen years ago, Jack Winter lay dying in a graveyard. Jack called upon a demon and traded his soul for his life… and now the demon is back to collect its due. But Jack has finally found something to live for. Her name is Pete Caldecott, and because of her, Jack’s not going to Hell without a fight.
Pete doesn’t know about Jack’s bargain, but she does know that something bigger and far more dangerous than Jack’s demon is growing in the Black. Old gods are stirring and spirits are rising–and Jack doesn’t stand a chance of stopping them without Pete’s help.
Rapid-Fire Review
Kittredge does dark like a young, hip Poe – with an edge of macabre humor that doesn’t cover up the jaded side.
I can’t help myself: I’m in love with Jack Winter. But isn’t everybody? This book isn’t afraid to be gritty, fight dirty, or talk nasty. It also has maybe the best sex scene I’ve seen in urban fantasy lately… And this is coming from the girl who’d rather do the deed than read about it. Honestly, I usually skim those parts, but not this time. It felt real, instead of contrived. Unlike most I’ve read – er, skimmed.
The stakes feel real and immediate, and you know life’s a bitch when even your patron goddess is out to get you. Recommended.

Kiara
Kiara possesses a dry wit, a sharp sarcasm, and a towering intellect. Her secret alter ego has a boring™ day job, but at night she writes and reviews speculative fiction. She carries the keys to dozens of hearts in her pockets and jumps puddles in a single bound. Her superhero power is losing her socks before they've even made it into the dryer. She also likes to tell stories, so parts of this bio may be exaggerated. Waiting for Fairies is not responsible for any credulity that may be lost in the reading of this bio.2 Responses to “Review: Demon Bound by Caitlin Kittredge”

Hi, Jackie!
I'm really glad that this series is going so well… I had to stop reading Caitlin's other series, and I felt really bad about it. But Luna's romantic relationships were just… too similar to some nasty experiences I've had in the past and the story was resonating a little too strongly. Maybe someday I'll get to go back and finish it.
Until then there's always JACK! And who doesn't love that British accent?
