Okay, but seriously. You guys should all go read the Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews. It features:

• a non-white main female character, Kate Daniels
• multi-racial side characters
• magic users
• sharp shooters
• magical beings who are also sharp shooters and sword wielders
• tides where only magic works or only technology works
• werebeings/shapeshifters
• gods and goddesses
• vampires
• necromancers that use the vampires like avatars
• awesome characters
• lots of playful and witty banter
• tons and tons of recurring characters

Not to mention cool side characters like:

• Andrea - a were-hyena woman who just so happens to be the human military’s best sharpshooter
• Raphael - an intensely handsome Hispanic were-hyena with a love for knives and a veeeeery active sex life
• Dali - an Indonesian-American woman who turns into a white tiger and just so happens to be a vegetarian, so meat makes her sick. She also has a habit of driving at top speeds despite the fact that she’s legally blind.
• Barabas - a gay were-mongoose lawyer who is the coolest guy ever
• Dr. Doolittle - an old African-American medmage were-badger from Georgia who will give you hell for not taking care of yourself
• Naeemah - a were-crocodile assassin lady
• They’re all so cool. This list could contain just about all of the characters and I would still feel like I haven’t gushed enough.

Seriously. Go read it. If you are disappointed in it, I will be tremendously sad.
