A TALE OF TWO DEMON SLAYERS is the third book in Angie's
Fox's Demon Slayer series. Reluctant demon slayer Lizzie is
off to Greece to meet her hunky shape-shifting boyfriend's
family. However right from the start it turns into anything
but the relaxing vacation she was hoping for. Someone has
stolen part of her life essence, and she needs to get it
back before they do something bad with it...like turn it into
an evil doppelganger. As usual, Lizzie has to rely on help
from her grandmother's crazy biker witch coven, her talking
dog, and her overprotective (but gorgeous) boyfriend
Dimitri. Add an obsessed ex-fiancé, an eccentric
necromancer, and a baby dragon into the mix and she soon
finds herself needing a vacation from her vacation.
If you didn't read the first two books in this series, then
it can be a little confusing keeping track of the characters
and how they got where they are at the start of the book.
It's not necessary to read the others first, but it might
make the book a little more enjoyable. If you have read the
others and like them, then this one won't disappoint you. It
has the same crazy characters and similar outrageous
story-line. There is never a dull moment as Lizzie and her
posse fight demons, imps, and other evil entities. There are
quite a few laugh-out-loud moments and a couple of hot sex
scenes as well.
The nonstop action and quirky characters are what make this
book worth reading. It can be a little-over-the top at
times, but is perfect if you're looking for an escape from
real life. Lizzie wears on me a little with her neuroticism
and insecurity, but the fierce Dimitri and hilarious biker
witches make up for it. I find the series similar in style
(although not quite as good as) Stephanie Rowe's Immortally
Sexy series. If you're looking for a funny paranormal romp
with a little heat and lots of action, this book is for you.
The latest from New York Times bestselling author, Angie
Fox:
Last month, I was a single preschool teacher whose
greatest thrill consisted of color-coding my lesson plans.
That was before I learned I was a slayer. Now, it's up to
me to face curse-hurling imps, vengeful demons, and any
other supernatural uglies that crop up. And, to top it
off, a hunk of a shape-shifting griffin has invited me to
Greece to meet his family.
But it's not all sun, sand,
and ouzo. Someone has created a dark-magic version of me
with my powers and my knowledge--and it wants to kill me
and everyone I know. Of course, this evil twin doesn't
have Grandma's gang of biker witches, a talking Jack
Russell terrier, or an eccentric necromancer on its side.
In the ultimate showdown for survival, may the best demon
slayer win.
