Mischief
It's the 1980s...
Iris Tanner should have been the next big thing. Her former band is opening for the hottest glam metal band of the moment, Mischief. But due to an accident, Iris is a ghoul, roaming the streets looking for dead flesh to eat.
Then Billy--tall, dark, and possibly a stalker--lets Iris know that Mischief is really a disguised group of pixies, bent on the destruction of the human race. Iris decides fighting to save the world is at least as good as a hit record. And since Billy doesn't seem to be doing anything except following Iris around, he brings his brooding, beautiful face along for the ride.
Pursued by the pixie police, captured by witches, and nearly eaten by black pixies, they find it's a long way to the top if they want to rock and roll.

A recommended book for readers interested in reading a fun urban fantasy novel about a musician set during an alternate 80’s where magic is prevalent. It contains a reimagined depiction of pixies, ghouls, and witches.
Mischief is a novel with an intriguing magic system that is further complicated by the era of the 80’s. Pixies aren't cute fairies but masters of illusion content with blending with society except for the few that want to destroy all humans. Black pixies feed on the flesh of humans while ghouls need to feed on the dead flesh of humans. Meanwhile humans have established a police force to eradicate high profile creatures and users of magic. All of this combined with witches, an ancient evil, music, bad romances, and unlikely heroes. Mischief is a fun read with a great magic system, an interesting plot, complex characters, and an enjoyable portrayal of musicianship.
