I’m having a lot of fun reading the Kate Daniels series, so much so that I’ve just gone and bought the rest of the series, and I’m ploughing straight on into Magic Bleeds where we find Kate pissed when Curran doesn’t show up to the home-cooked and served in underwear dinner that she’d promised. Which is how, instead of snogging a werelion, she finds herself instead investigating a bar fight which has led not only to a shapeshifter fatality but also an explosion of supernatural […]
It’s getting hot in here
As promised by Emmalita and others, the Kate Daniels series really hits its stride in its third outing Magic Strikes, as Kate finds herself fighting in gladiatorial rings and snogging in hot tubs, while Atlanta continues to be rocked by magic waves. Now working for the Order, although not a Knight, Kate is put into a difficult position when her teenaged werewolf friend, Derek, makes her promise to keep a secret. With Derek then turning up near dead, attacked by a band of Reapers, Kate’s […]
Much needed brain balm
Atlanta is being rocked by waves of magic, each stronger than the one before, and the city is going crazy. Meeting a vulnerable young girl living on the streets whose mother disappeared during one of the waves, Kate finds herself trying to work out just what exactly magic-crazed shifters, witches and Celtic gods have to do with it all. Of course, she also gets to rub up a lot against the Leader of the Pack (I seem to be incapable of calling him the Beast […]
Magic Bites, but this doesn’t
Magic Bites introduces us to Kate Daniels, a mercenary who’s working in an Atlanta that is in flux – in this world sometimes technology is in charge, but during others magic holds sway. To cope with this, Atlanta has a number of agencies to tackle the supernatural as well as criminal threats. Kate works for none of these, preferring to go it alone, but when her mentor and father-figure (who’s no pushover himself when it comes to monsters) is murdered and both the People (undead) […]
My Dad is a Paranoid Megalomanic Wizard Who Refuses to Respect my Boundaries.
Short non-spoilery review – this is a solid entry in an excellent series. If you aren’t reading the Kate Daniels series, you should start. On to the longer and inevitably spoilery review (there is no way to talk about book 9 in a series without getting spoilery). Planning a wedding was never going to be Kate’s favorite thing to do, but tensions rising with her father and oracles calling with dark prophecies push wedding planning even farther down the list of priorities. Worse, Kate’s claiming […]
“You’re like a crazy cat lady, but you collect killers instead of fluffy cats.”
4.5 stars Spoiler warning! This is book nine in the Kate Daniels series. The penultimate book in the series, in fact. I will not be able to review this book without there being spoilers for earlier books. Don’t read this if you’re not all the way caught up. Do pick up the series if you like good Urban/Paranormal fantasy, though, it’s pretty much the best out there at the moment. Private detective and supernatural powerhouse Kate Daniels is finally getting married to Curran Lennart, former […]
