Currently taking another shot at Neuromancer. I forgot how pulpy it was!

Ghostwater (Cradle #5). I liked the first four books but hadn’t felt completely sucked in yet. I’m enjoying this one the most out of the series so far. I have enjoyed them enough that I bought the entire series.
I just finished Waybound a week or so ago. Cradle is fantastic and only gets better with each book. Ghostwater is where things really start to take off though. You're in for a treat :D
The Demon Cycle book 2. A lot of real fucked up shit happens but it's not gratuitous in description and the world and characters are interesting. At night humanity is plagued by demons, which seem to be impossible to kill except by trapping them and exposing them to the sun. They're held at bay only by wards, a mostly defensive magic system of glyphs. It's not uncommon for the wards to fail on some way, due to the imperfection of the warder, poor maintenence of the wards, or some mistake to mar them.
I've heard of Demon Cycle and read that it's pretty good. Sounds interesting!
Ah, I just realized that I should warn you that it does contain r*pe. It's not graphically described and it's not copious but it's probably come up at least once a book so far. I don't think it's really all that necessary to the plot, either.
