Hell for Hire: A new series and a new world from Rachel Aaron

When a clever witch moves across the country to Seattle and hires a demon mercenary crew to guard his back while he casts the spell of his career to defeat the agents of Gilgamesh, the eternal and despotic god king of Heaven, you know it's going to be a good time! Introducing HELL FOR HIRE, the first in an all-new series full of witches, demons, epic sword fights, talking cats, wild magic, Mesopotamian mythology, beautifully cruel princes, and a revolution that will tear down Heaven itself.

TELL ME MORE!

"Featuring a motley crew of lovable demons, a chaotic male forest witch with a sassy talking cat familiar, snarky sentient weapons, wicked warlocks, and plenty of magical mayhem, Hell for Hire is a bewitching and diabolically fun Urban Fantasy that is as thrilling as it is wholesome."
