Consulting the brain of the blogoverse

I need recommendations for the best urban fantasy books or series out there.

For the sake of this, think the modern interpretation of urban fantasy - our world, but with magic/vampires/weres/fae in it.

Hey, do you have the Weather Warden books? If so, any chance I could borrow them :)

And don't let me forget to give you the Sookie Stackhouse books tomorrrow! :)

No, unfortunately. I only have the fifth book (at least I think its the fifth). I borrowed them from my friend . .. the one I was trying to hook you up with on FB and LJ 'cause she's good at helping with edits, etc. She'd let you borrow them and I would be the go between if she didn't live all the way up in Joondalup and, thus, out of the way to stop by before we get to your place tomorrow. She's the one who recently started me on the whole "urban fantasy/paranormal romance" genre. I am so glad she did!

And don't worry, I won't let you forget the books! I plan on scoping out the rest of your collection, too, if you don't mind. ;)

I work in-house at Ace Roc, so I can send them to you if you like.

And of course I'll throw my uf series out there as the best of modern UF.. but I think I may be partial!

Seriously? Given that I'm on the other side of the world, it may be way expensive, but I'm not going to say no :)
