Flesh Circus (Jill Kismet Series #4)

Flesh Circus Delivers

Flesh Circus is a good addition to the series but doesn't, in my opinion, advance it. The relationship between 'Kiss' and her 'apprentice' is not developed as much as I would have liked and her relationship with her 'cat' is left hanging.
Not to mention the relationship between her MALE apprentice and her MALE Were-Lover. Are we, the readers, supposed to guess what MIGHT be going on?

The series is starting to get a back log of 'unresolved issues'.

And her Demon supporter languishes in some sort of odd, writer's Hell.

All in all, a good read but nothing special. If the next book is as good then I might consider ending my interest in the series and keep the good memories of the previous books.
I hope this is not an indication that the series is going downhill or, as might be more appropos...to Hell.

Ohhhh yummy sounds like a fun place

Best Series EVER!!!

I love this book. Every time Jill was sad i wanted to cry my eyes out. Every time she was happy i was happy. Lilith Saintcrow is so good at making you feel like you are in the story. I'm only in Middle School but i love these books.

A wonderful urban fantasy

The Cirque de Charnu comes to Santa Luz although Jill Kismet would prevent them entry, but the compact these Hellspawn refuges live under does not give her that latitude. Still the hunter reminds the Ringmaster and the others of the sufferance rules of engagement and demands her hostage whom she rings. However, someone is even less tolerant than Jill and is killing the performers. Although sympathetic with the killer, Jill investigates fearing the murderer may be one of her colleagues.

The hunter also struggles with exorcisms linked to voodoo practitioners who are dying following the rites they perform. Zombie hordes are flocking to the city so between the Cirque and its death toll, the voodoo mage and its death toll, and the zombie needed death toll; Jill has no time for a rest.

The fourth Kismet Noir fantasy thriller (see Night Shift, Hunter's Prayer, and Redemption Alley) is loaded with action and starring a kick butt heroine who from the opening scene until the final climax is donkey kicking seemingly every character in sight. Jill makes the tale as she is a hardboiled noir with a soft inside but not when it comes to protecting Santa Luz; in this case from the memories of the past causing havoc on the present.
