Publisher Description
Mary Alice Brannigan doesn’t believe in the supernatural. Nor does she expect to find that Dreamland, the decaying amusement park she’s been hired to restore, is a prison for the five Untouchables, the most powerful demons in the history of the world. Plus, there’s a guy she’s falling hard for, and there’s something about him that’s not quite right.
But rocky romances and demented demons aren’t the only problems in Dreamland: Mab’s also coping with a crooked politician, a supernatural raven, a secret government agency, an inexperienced sorceress, an unsettling inheritance, and some mind-boggling revelations from her past. As her personal demons wreck her newfound relationship and real demons wreck the park, Mab faces down immortal evil and discovers what everybody who’s ever been to an amusement park knows: The end of the ride is always the wildest.

"This novel is set at an amusement park in the middle of the Ohio River. The town of Parkersburg is mentioned several times and it appears that the author is putting Parkersburg in Ohio (it is actually in West Virginia, but is on the river). Anyway, the amusement park is more than just an amusement park, it is a demon keep which imprisons the five Untouchable demons. The bulk of the story centers around Mab, the woman restoring the park, and a group of park workers who make up the Guardia who keep watch over the demons. Anyway, there are bad guys, demons, minions, possessed teddy bears, government agents, and more in the offbeat cast of characters. I found myself laughing out loud several times and thoroughly enjoyed the romp through the demon prison/amusement park."
