Unrecorded urban fantasy books from 2009:

A Flash of Hex, Jes Battis - The second in Battis' urban fantasy series set in Vancouver and focusing on the exploits of paranormal forensics investigator Tess Corday it continues the story, gives us more information about Corday herself and about the relationships between the various supernatural communities, and tells a decent police procedural mystery. I'm enjoying the series.

Norse Code, Greg van Eekhout - satisfying debut that provides a modern, urban version of Ragnarok. I recommend this to fantasy fans who are looking for an infusion of Norse-influenced myth.

Camileon, Shykia Bell - I am not happy when I find it impossible to say much that is positive about a book, but alas, writing about this book is not a happy experience, any more than reading it was. Hackneyed and poorly written, with a far-too-predictable storyline, I'm afraid I can;t recommend this to anyone for any reason.
