This is a list of Urban Fantasy P.I.'s as well as other books you might like if you're looking for something different. The books are subdivided by category. Once again, the list isn't meant to be comprehensive. If you see a few books you've never heard of and want to read, than I've accomplished my purpose.
I've revamped the list to include newer releases (11/08).
PI's:
Tanya Huff - Blood Lines, Blood Pact, Blood Debt, Blood Price, Blood Trial
Jim Butcher - Storm Front, Fool Moon, Grave Peril, Summer Knight, Death Masks, Blood Rites, Dead Beat, Proven Guilty, White Night, Small Favor

Camille Bacon-Smith - Daemon Eyes
Justin Gustainis - Black Magic Woman
*Rob Thurman - Nightlife, Moonshine, Madhouse (the characters consider themselves PI's after book 2 but it's not 'official' as it were, hense the star)

I appreciate this post and I am checking out four authors I had not known about, however I do think that one particular author's works may have been included to this and that is C.J. Henderson. He has a "Teddy London" series that introduced me to crossover type work. Find the main page here. http://www.cjhenderson.com/
Thanks for the additional author.
Wen Spenser is more sci-fi than urban fantasy.
I know. So, for that matter, is John Ridley. But I figure people who like the others on this list will probably enjoy having a few more reading options so...
