I've long been a fan of Jordan L. Hawk's Widdershins series and recently got into the Hexworld series so I decided to give SPECTR a try... I'm glad I did!

Hunter of Demons is a unique twist on a paranormal m/m story that had my interest from page one. The book follows Caleb Jansen, a closeted 'mal' - someone with paranormal ability - in a world where 'mals' are registered and kept an eye on. Caleb had spent his life hiding and flying under the radar until his older brother Ben was killed and then the body just got up and walked out of the funeral home. In a twist of fate, Caleb is thrust into the attention of SPECTR, the government agency that trains and uses paranormals to police the paranormal community.

Without giving the plot away, Caleb comes face to 'face' with his brother's body snatcher and then is forced to deal with the fallout of his ill thought out decision to seek vengeance with a group of anti-mal anarchists. Enter John Starkweather, a hot agent who has 'drunk the SPECTR koolaid' and was the agent responsible for investigating brother Ben's death. John only wants to help Caleb regain sole possession of his body but it turns out the entity within Caleb isn't a demon after all, and has an agenda similar to Caleb's - finding and destroying the demon that killed his brother.

Starkweather and Caleb are forced together by fate and forces beyond their control. They end up working together to solve Ben's death and as they do attraction sparks. But things aren't what they seem at SPECTR... and the entity in Caleb isn't going anywhere now that it's had a taste of what it's like to inhabit a living body instead of a corpse.

This book is a HFN with a Sword of Damocles type cliff hanger ending. I'm hooked. Off to read book two!

I liked it as much as the others. 

It's a solid series.

And I liked the twist with the new entity.

This was short, it was a lot of the usual.

The story around the demon was rather boring.

It felt a lot of "meh".

I skimmed in the end.

I am a bit sad to see such an interesting concept go stale...

Not really much to say about this instalment of the Spectr series except that I totally enjoyed it.  There was some character grown from both Caleb and John and I really liked how John's opinion and feelings towards Gray are changing and growing.  Caleb remains a lot of fun and I really enjoy the 'inside' interactions between him and Gray.  

Maybe it was good to have some time gap between the last one and this most recent one.

So the story felt new and interesting, although it is not so much different from the others in the series.

Caleb/Gray and John are in an established relationship for some time now and the murder mystery was in focus.

It was a very enjoyable and fast paced read with a solid plot.
