How can you not like a book that starts with a possessed sneaker? Very unique and certainly catches and keeps your attention.
What do you do when everything male in the Otherworld is out to rape you and get you with child? Well Eugenie Markham takes names and kicks ass. She's in fight after fight with all things Otherworldly with the end result brutal rape if she fails. I kinda got tired of the rape threat but the author quickly down played that with death threats instead. Oh yay.
Eugenie is an unbelievably strong shaman who interacts in the Otherworld all the time usually by killing the offending demons and sending them to hell. Now she must cultivate and use Otherworld allies just to survive. Fairy king Dorian and shapeshifter Kiyo are the greatest help but the demons Eugenie controls also give invaluable assistance and boy are the demons sarcastically funny. They are not happy with Eugenie's control of them and aren't shy about telling her. Dorian taunts her sexually and promises so much but Eugenie hates all things Otherworldly and tries to resist his pull. However it's lust at first sight with foxy Kiyo. Reminded me a little of Anita Blake in the beginning when sex with shifters was new and she rapidly acquired boyfriends. I surely hope that the Dark Swan series doesn't head in that direction. One Anita is enough.
