Last Call at the Nightshade Lounge is a fun read set in the Ravenswood
neighborhood of Chicago where bartenders are not just friendly servers or mere
mortals, but supernatural hunters tasked with protecting the city.
After Bailey Chen
graduates from college, she moves home broke and unsure of her future. When her
friend Zane hooks her up with a job at his family’s bar, she thinks it will be
a fun and easy way to make some money while she tries to find a “real” job.
Little does she know that the bartenders of Chicago are really unsung heroes
who use perfectly mixed cocktails that give them super powers (super-strength,
telekinesis, and more) to fight invisible beasts called tremems. But fighting
demons is rarely as easy as it seems and Bailey and Zane soon learn that
tremens are not the only thing out to get them. It will take brains, courage,
and the mythical powers of the Long Island Iced Tea to save themselves and
their city.
Fresh, witty, and
entirely original, Last Call at the
Nightshade Lounge is a fresh addition to the urban fantasy genre. A great
read for fans of Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files series.
