In my quest to find a palatable urban fantasy series (which reminds me, I should post a proper review of Succubus Blues), I got to thinking: I keep saying I'd love to see urban fantasy set somewhere other than Britain and the US, but what would a book like that be like? Trying to imagine an urban fantasy is the classic model, but set in Israel, is making my brain cramp up. Sure, it could be awesome, but it could also be just plain weird, and not in a good way. Hebrew is an odd language to write fantasy in.

..........IT COULD BE EPIC >_< and I'm not even a fan of urban fantasy.

It would have to be in Tel Aviv, because that's the only city of that sort we have. Even though Jerusalem is very special, it's not exactly the place where you can go around stalking creatures of the night in leather pants. Although I'm three-for-five for the urban fantasy heroine traits. Bonus points if the heroine and her scooby gang correspond to Livyatan, Behemot and Ziz respectively.

Excuse you, there is possibly no place on Earth MORE PERFECT to stalk creatures of the night in leather pants than Jerusalem!

You cannot even get a decent cup of coffee on a Friday night. Surely one can't hunt vampires without caffeine?

VAMPIRE HUNTERS BREW THEIR OWN COFFEE. -_- HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS
