For all the bodies she's encountering, you'd think beat cop Joanne Walker works in Homicide. But no, Joanne's a reluctant shaman who last saved mankind three months ago -- surely she deserves more of a break! Yet, incredibly, "Armageddon, take two" is mere days away. There's not a minute to waste. Yet when her spirit guide inexplicably disappears, Joanne needs help from other sources. Especially after she accidentally unleashes Lower World demons on Seattle. Damn. With the mother of all showdowns gathering force, it's the worst possible moment for Joanne to realize she should have learned more about controlling her powers. 27369 book 1 5 2006 Thunderbird Falls (Walker Papers, #2) total:488|5:110|4:201|3:130|2:38|1:9| 488 1829 723 39 2 2 false false Sun Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Mon Jun 18 15:18:54 -0700 2007 Mon Jun 18 15:18:57 -0700 2007 more...]]> 2 1 false false Sun Mar 02 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 03 15:42:07 -0800 2007 Fri Mar 14 15:20:03 -0700 2008

Meh. I'm not sure why I picked this up. I was not enthralled with the first book, and this one was even less gripping. But I've had multiple unconnected people sing the series' praises, so I thought I'd give it another try...the concept seems like something I'd like. ...more...]]> 3 0 false false Sat Apr 11 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 05 19:20:30 -0800 2009 Sat Apr 11 09:39:07 -0700 2009 1 more...]]> 4 0 false true Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Oct 06 05:58:26 -0700 2008 Tue May 19 19:28:25 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Aug 04 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu May 15 11:27:36 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 04 17:24:47 -0700 2008

Murphy's Thunderbird Falls is the second full-length novel in her Walker Papers series--though it's actually the third installment, since "Banshee Cries" in the anthology Winter Moon is sort of book 1.5.
