The subtitle above is from one of countless rave reviews for Julie Kenner's Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom series. Yes, that's the name of the series. Let me just give you the blurb from the back of Book 1, Carpe Demon.
Nobody slays demons like Kate Connor. At least, she used to.
These days, she’s swapped holy water for juice boxes, blades for bake sales, and battlefield scars for the daily chaos of marriage and motherhood. Life as a stay-at-home mom suits her just fine—until something monstrous crashes her carpool and reminds her that evil never retires.
Out of practice, pushing forty, and cut off from the allies she once trusted, Kate is forced back into a world she thought she’d escaped. The problem? The old network is gone, the threats are evolving, and someone—or something—seems to know far too much about her carefully hidden past.
As danger creeps closer to her family, Kate must unravel who’s behind the new wave of supernatural attacks and why they’re targeting her now. Balancing secrets, suspicion, and the quiet strain that comes with protecting the people she loves most, she discovers that the hardest battles aren’t always fought with weapons.
But nothing is more lethal than a mother defending her own.
PTA meetings can wait. Kate Connor is back in action—blades in hand, ready to remind the underworld exactly why she was once the most feared demon hunter alive.
I'm sold! I snagged the audiobook yesterday, as we set up this chat a little bit last minute when I learned that Book 9 of this series comes out TOMORROW, Tuesday March 24th, 2026.
Here with us today to celebrate that book and this massively popular series, is Julie Kenner.
Hey Julie! Welcome to the Coffee House Blog.
