Publisher Description

Seventeen, dead, and in charge of heaven's dark angels—all itching to kill someone.

Madison Avery's dreams of ever fitting in at her new school died when she did. Especially since she was able to maintain the illusion of a body, deal with a pesky guardian angel, and oh yeah, bring the reaper who killed her to his untimely end. Not exactly in-crowd material. It's amazing that her crush, Josh, doesn't think she's totally nuts.

Now Madison has learned that she's the dark timekeeper, in charge of angels who follow the murky guidelines of fate. Never one to abide by the rules, she decides it's time for a major change to the system. With the help of some unlikely allies, Madison forms a rogue group of reapers who definitely don't adhere to the rules of the heavens.

But as she grapples with the terrifying new skills that come with being a timekeeper, Madison realizes she may not be prepared for what lies ahead—unless she gets some seriously divine intervention.

"As the sequel to a book I enjoyed I was predisposed to like Early to Death. It had the same cute tone and it boosted it's likeability by having characters besides Madison that Harrison delves into. It's really short so the ending runs into you like a telephone pole you didn't see coming."

    " I found myself immensely interested in this book after having finished the first. Both were great and this one holds up to the usual. I thought this one had a little less kick to it, but it was still worth the read. "

    " Tried to get back into this series but it just didn't work. The first book was pretty good and grabbed my attention but getting into this book was boring and just not worth it. I'm sad to say it, but this is another series I'm going to have to drop. "

    " I can't believe I didn't read this series sooner. I think I was afraid Kim Harrison was gong to be one of those authors who writes adult books and then feels they have to dumb everything down for teens. But this series isn't like that. "

    " This is a fun twist on the paranormal theme. The lead character, Madison, is charmingly imperfect. I've yet to meet a Kim Harrison novel that I haven't enjoyed and this in no exception. "

    " Looking forward to seeing what's next for Madison in her journey to find her body, figure out where she stands in the battle between free will and fate, and, oh yeah--make it through her senior year of high school. Kim Harrison has given the YA world a fun new urban fantasy series. "
