Hell For Hire: Urban Fantasy Action with Witches and Demons
(Tear Down Heaven Book 1)

To my mind Aaron continues to get better with each series. Early on she
had a tendency to over-explain her magical systems, but she has that well
under control here, and doing something with Gilgamesh and Sumerian demons
is a bit of a nice switch up from usual UF tropes. She also has a knack for
writing complementary heroes & heroines who each bring something to the
table that the other does not. Her romances tend to be rather slow-burn,
but I don't think there's any doubt where this relationship is headed.
There's still plenty to do after the partial victory in the final battle
here, so I would expect probably two more books, which I will follow.

Aaron has been on my "try something some day" list - given the paragraph
above, is this one of hers that you'd recommend starting with?

It's starting well, but we'll have to see how it progresses. Right
now I would recommend the DFZ Changeling trilogy starting with _By
a Silver Thread_.
