Hold Me Closer, Necromancer, by Lish McBride (Henry Holt and Company, 2010)

It’s all fun and games for college drop-out and professional fry cook Samhain “Sam” LaCroix, until Seattle’s most powerful necromancer recognizes the power Sam didn’t even know he possessed. Now Sam’s the target of his rival’s dark ambitions, and has to get his act together before he finds out what’s worse than death. Deadly serious, yet playfully tongue-in-cheek, McBride’s debut features an interesting set-up populated by entertaining characters, making for an attention-grabbing story.
