WW Review: Immortal Justice by Faith V Smith

Caution: Parts of this book may cause copious weeping; abrupt drops in blood oxygenation levels; and sudden outbursts of gut-busting laughter.

       Darach MacRath is what’s termed an Immortal, employed by Michael the Archangel as an emissary of justice to prevent crime and render justice to evil mortals and demons. Fearless and only slightly ruthless, he and Michael's crew of executioners have for the last couple thousand years 'smote' some very bad guys [and probably a few gals; this being an equal opportunity band of slayers]. The reasons behind Darach becoming an Immortal will lead to the aforementioned weeping so we won’t give away the deets. For the last ten years, give or take, Darach has lived and worked in New Orleans, doing his job for old Michael who sits up there, calling the shots—or so he thinks.

         Enter Abigail, Abby, Dupree, administrative assistant by day, dinner club singer by night, and one of those special people who is afflicted with visions of crime scenes, seen in such vivid detail she can now spot a demon by the look in their eye. When Michael steps in and assigns Darach to protect Abby from Angus, the same demon who murdered Darach's wife and small son centuries past, sparks fly--for more reasons than the usual.

          Set in the French Quarter of New Orleans, the Big Easy becomes a secondary character of its own under the skilled hand of Ms. Smith. She does not disappointed in providing more 'human' characters for this delightful story. Two of whom, half-mortal/half-demon Sean Black and Arianna, another member of Michael's crew of Immortals. These two light up the pages when they're together so stay tuned for their story which we have on good authority is in the works.

          Immortal Justice is packed with non-stop action and romance with more than a bit of dry humor tossed in for flavoring. We can't wait for the next in Faith V. Smith's Immortal stories.

Pick this one up--you won't be sorry. We weren't.

Out of 5 stars, this earns a 6+
