  “Kate Conner is back on the Vatican payroll as a demon-hunter in the second book of the Adventures of a Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom series. Her family is clueless and the list of quirky characters who know her secret is growing. The story and writing style are much more consistent and believable in this book. The story ends setting up the next installment and I can’t wait to read more Kate Conner adventures. ”

  “This is the second in the series. I have liked both that I read but this one leaves you with a little more food for thought. I'm anxious to get the next one now.”

  “In this follow-up to 2006's Carpe Demon, we return to San Diablo, California, a small quiet suburb outside Los Angeles, where Suburban housewife and Level Four Demon Hunter Kate Conner is on the job. On one hand, she's trying to keep house for her husband, teenage daughter, and toddler son, while on the other, she's hunting down a demon who just took over the body of an old man and escaped the old age home!
  
  But Kate's up against more than she can handle when it turns out that the special guest appearing at the high school surf competition is a Demon himself... and her daughter Allie is right smack in the middle of the action. With the help of her best friend Laura, and what may well be the spirit of her dead husband, Kate takes on the Demon and still manages to get dinner on the table in time. ;)
  
  I enjoyed this 2nd book in the series. Even though I don't particularly relate to the whole housewife/soccer mom mentality, I have several friends who are in that phase of their lives, so I can appreciate it. ;)”

  “I thought this book would be a lot of fun. But if you took out all of the talk of running errands, going to the store, placating her kid with TV, and trips to McDonalds, the book would be about 10 pages long. She mentions McDonalds so many times that I wonder if she was getting paid for product placement. Not enough story. And the main character seems like a pretty half-assed parent.”

  “Maybe because I am such a Buffy fan... I love books where it's the unexpected hero...”

  “Hilarious and thrilling. A great sequel to Carpe Demon. Can't wait to read her next one! Who couldn't love a demon hunting soccer mom?”

  “This book seemed a bit slow at times for me, but in the end I still loved it. I like seeing how Kate is gonna handle dealing with her family while trying to rid San Diablo of it's Demon population.”
