Review: Perhaps The Best Of The Series - Hopefully Not The Last

I have read and enjoyed all of the novellas in this series so far.  Though the prequel short story could have been a little longer.  It is not often that you come across something as fresh as the concept behind this story.I am not Ms. Evans' target market (as I am older and male) but I have been reading fantasy for longer than she has been writing.  Recently looking for new authors I started looking through the paranormal section (as I had gotten tired of the whole space war theme fantasy seems to abound with today) and found Ms. Evans along with several others.  I was drawn into the Witches Anonymous series from the first pages of the first novella.  Ms. Evans has a real talent and a light hand with her stories.  These run the gamut of emotion and by the end of about book three you find yourself rooting for the devil.Without offering any spoilers, if you are sensitive about the use of biblical verse, angels, demons, and God in a work of imaginative fiction in which God and the Angels are not always good guys you would be better off skipping this series.  However is you are a reader of fantasy or paranormal fiction you probably don't fall in that category.If you are looking for smart, funny and in many cases irreverent piece fiction that works on many levels and is not your run of the mill plot then this series is for you.  I would suggest reading them in order but some may prefer to read in reverse order (in a rare move for me I did it both ways, rare because I seldom read a book twice).  Even though they are novellas there is so much going on at so many levels that when you get to end of number five it dawns on you some of what you thought wasn't important earlier was.  You will not see the plot twists in Step 5 coming.So even though I am not her target audience, she has won a loyal fan.  I will continue to buy and enjoy her books.  Kudos Ms. Evans and I look forward to more good reads from you.
