Hi fellow denizens,

Demon's Bluff by Kim Harrison
hardcover, 451 pages, $30, Ace. New York
Thankfully I got it at the San Francisco
Public Library Main in the New SF area.
       This is set in the Hollows as are
most of the tales in the endless (we hope)
saga of Rachel Morgan.  The world of the
Hollows is much like our own but Rachel
resides in Cincinati with a host of Vampires
both living and undead, some Weres, and
troublesome Elves, and  Demons who come
 in from the Ever-After  which in a previous
 volume Rachel with  some help recreated
 with power from ley lines.  She started as
 a witch but studied  and spelled hard and
 learned to twist  curses.  In this story she
 travels back  in time, but not alone but
  with an enemy.
 To retrieve a artifact she must solve a
 riddle from the maddest of demons.

 May be the culmination of the series.

I have not read this one, so I cannot comment specifically, but at some
point in the series I just got so frustrated with Rachel's issues that I
gave up.  Maybe she works past that, but I found she was just not fun to
spend time with anymore.
