Here are a couple. If you're not interested in either of these, no worries.
There will always be more. *Smile*
I haven't read any of these so I can't say how good or bad they are.
The Man with the Golden Torc by Simon R. Green
For ages, Eddie Drood and his family have kept humanity safe from the things
that go bump in the night. But now one of his own has convinced the rest of
the family that Eddie's become a menace, and that humanity needs to be
protected from him. So he's on the run, using every trick in the book, magical
and
otherwise, hoping he lives long enough to prove his innocence...

Ok.
I'll look through my stack of books and let you know what I've got. Most
of it is urban fantasy so I may not have many regular fantasy books at the
moment. I'm always getting more though.

Oh, yes, that would be great. As long as its not modern fantasy, I will
take it on. I love non-stop action. Just let me know when you want me to get
started. I'm a huge fan of fantasy. I can't seem to read anything else. Lol
I've tried, and it doesn't work.

Hi, Ann.
If you like fantasy and urban fantasy, I have a pile here.
I can see what I've got if you're interested.
I don't read through my scans before I submit them but I do a lot of
cleanup work and I'm always willing to rescan pages if they're too jumbled.

I love Jim Butcher. If this book is anything like his work, I would
love to read it.

Hi, Christina, this sounds very gritty in the Jim Butcher school of
writing. How do you like Sagara's writing? Regards, Kim. P.S.: Sorry, I'm
already working on something right now (you know what). Regards, Kim.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Proofer Sought for Cast in Shadow
Hello.
I'm looking for a proofer for Cast in Shadow by Michelle Sagara. The
previous proofer didn't enjoy the book as much as she thought she would.
I put the synopsis below.
Christina
Long Synopsis: = Seven years ago Kaylin fled the crime-riddled streets
of Nightshade, knowing that something was after her. Children were being
murdered
-- and all had the same odd markings that mysteriously appeared on her
own skin. ...Since then, she's learned to read, she's learned to fight and she's
become one of the vaunted Hawks who patrol and police the City of
Elantra. Alongside the winged Aerians and the immortal Barrani, she's made a
place for
herself, far from the mean streets of her birth. But children are once
again dying, and a dark and familiar pattern is emerging. Kaylin is ordered back
into Nightshade with a partner she knows she can't trust, a Dragon lord
for a companion and a device to contain her powers -- powers that no other human
has. Her task is simple -- find the killer, stop the murders... and
survive the attentions of those who claim to be her allies!
Personal Demons by Stacia Kane
Megan promises listeners to her new radio call-in show that she'll
"slay their personal demons," and they believe her. So do the personal
demons... although
she doesn't know it, Megan is the only human without a demon on her
shoulder! Megan and her allies - a demon lover who both protects and seduces
her with
devilish intensity, a witch with poor social skills, and three cockney
guard demons - have to deal not only with the personal demons, but a
soul-sucker,
ghosts of Megan's past, and a reporter who threatens to destroy Megan's
career!
