Calliope Reaper-Jones, longing for a normal life and a glamorous career, is called into the family business when her father, Death, is kidnapped and, in order to step into the CEO slot on the company board, must compete against the Devil’s protégé to find three objects of power in hell. Original.
Calliope Reaper-Jones so just wanted a normal life: buying designer shoes on sale, dating guys from Craig’s List, web-surfing for organic dim-sum for her boss… But when her father — who happens to be Death himself — is kidnapped, and the Devil’s Protege embarks on a hostile takeover of the family business, Death, Inc., Callie returns home to assume the CEO mantle — only to discover she must complete three nearly impossible tasks in the realm of the afterlife first.
I love the snarky dialoge, but I thought that Callie was just a little too whiney. If there had been a bit of editing the book would have had a faster pace and and stronger characters. Overall, for a debut of a new series, the story gives a little too much background. I am looking forward to the next one in the series and I hope the humor continues. Overall, I really enjoyed it and read it quickly.
