I downloaded Retro Demonology after I finished A Demon Trapper's Daughter because I loved the world that Jana Oliver created so much and I wanted more of it. At that time, the sequel hadn't been released yet, and I was wanting more of Riley's kick butt-ness. It's only a short story, a very short story, 15 pages, so don't expect a full length novel or anything. It's just a quick foray into Riley's first trapping mission alone. If you haven't read A Demon Trapper's Daughter yet, I definitely recommend downloading this story to give you a taste of what's in store.Retro Demonology by Jana OliverPages: 15

A Demon Trapper’s bonus story.
Before Riley Blackthorne can take on Grade Five demons, she has to trap her very first. Her debut solo trapping experience should be a breeze, just a harmless Grade One after all. But throw in some dippy hippies (whose peace signs and Patchouli really aren’t driving any demons away), one mischievous demon, and a run-in with the police, and Riley might not be able to pull it off...
Riley is cool as ever. She's excited to be on her first solo mission, even though it's only a biblio-fiend, which basically means it's a relatively harmless little demon. It was an interesting situation that Riley got herself in, and actually, this story provides some insight into Riley's world as a whole. It shows how much the world has degenerated, so much so that people are resorting to living in the past--literally, living totally retro.
Give Retro Demonology a try if you have 15 or 20 minutes to spare! 4 out of 5 stars.

I haven't read any of the books in this series yet, but from what you say, I think I will definitely give this a go beforehand for a taste of what to expect! For a 15 page short story, it sounds like a delicious insight into Riley's world :D Fab review!!
Also: How fitting is it that I read this review relating todemons when you have 666 followers? Hehe. Anyway...
Lol, Brodie, I know! The 666 followers thing is hilarious. My mom saw it and was like "You need to change that, quickly." LOL
