Narration In Favor Of Books Magic Slays (Kate Daniels #5)
Plagued by a war between magic and technology, Atlanta has never been so deadly. Good thing Kate Daniels is on the job.Kate Daniels may have quit the Order of Merciful Aid, but she’s still knee-deep in paranormal problems. Or she would be if she could get someone to hire her. Starting her own business has been more challenging than she thought it would be—now that the Order is disparaging her good name, and many potential clients are afraid of getting on the bad side of the Beast Lord, who just happens to be Kate’s mate.
So when Atlanta’s premier Master of the Dead calls to ask for help with a vampire on the loose, Kate leaps at the chance of some paying work. Turns out this is not an isolated incident, and Kate needs to get to the bottom of it—fast, or the city and everyone dear to her might pay the ultimate price.

Last review of a Kate Daniels book for this year. By the time I reached the middle of this book I already began to get a bit bored of Kate Daniels as it was the 5th book in a row that I read from this series. I still enjoyed it but I started to feel the need for a break. What is this book about? Kidnapping, witches, Russian volhvs, power play between Curran and Kate, fights, love.Buddy read with Armina, Eilonwy, Asya, and Monty Cupcake.Poor Kate Daniels opened a private investigation outfit quite a while ago, but the clients did not exactly form a huge line at her doors. In fact she did not have a single one yet. When her friend/enemy Ghastek asked her to deal with a vampire on the loose she jumped at the chance. Before she knew it, the little problem escalates into something much bigger. She now has to deal with pissed off police, her adopted niece Julie who
I would like all authors of urban fantasy and paranormal romance out there to stop for a second their feverish scribbling and take a look at this series. THE proof that YES, series don't necessarily need to go down the drain after 4th installment, that YES, series can STILL be interesting after the two romantic interests in the story "do the deed" and that YES, plots do not need to become unbelievably twisted, punctuated by improbable events and where mythology gets slaughtered just to get out
These books just keep getting better!! Kate has opened her own business, Cutting Edge Investigations. Of course her first customer would be part of a cult built on ridding the world of magic. Even though without magic most of the population would die. Kate is battling a group of terrorists with sleeper agents everywhere. Meanwhile her kid is in trouble. This book made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me shudder and it made me feel the warm fuzzies for the romance between Kate and Curren. If
Welcome to the Readers Court of Literary Grievances The courtroom was alive with the buzz of conversation. Todays case had drawn so many spectators that it was standing room only. Behind the judges bench, high on the wall, hung an unimposing, standard-issue clock. As its hands ticked down the minutes, the excitement in the room rose and the buzz of the crowd slowly turned into a low level roar. Fifteen minutes before start-time it was so loud that people had to raise their voices when speaking
Yes I am reading this again....3rd time is a charm. I even found some lovely people to read it with me at Ilona Andrews Addicts (IAA) I always find something in these books that I missed or forgot in-between reads that makes them great and new again. Always a fun time reading the banter, the story and just the feel of IA's worlds are fantastic.Read #2 review Sept 20144.5 stars. I love re-reading this series. Im having so much fun the second time through. My real review is below this is just me
Okay, this is easy. Since I'm a fanboy, it's super easy to write reviews because I can usually just do a gonzo.Suffice to say, it's really fun to be getting into the characters. There might have been a little hiccup with Curran in this one... like there ain't hiccups in all of them... but it's nice to see the interplay.I can't believe that Derek is actually growing on me, at long last. But Julie? Awwwww.... pooooooor kid! This is definitely going to bite everyone in the butt. I know it.Urban
