Fantastic! You won't be able to put it down. This is a LOT of action though so be prepared for nearly non-stop fighting. Kate and Curran have left the pack and are trying to make it in a "normal" neighborhood. But then George shows up begging for their help because Eduardo the werebison (and her love) is missing. Oh, and packs of ghouls are rampaging the city.
This took off running from page one and didn't stop until the end. Incredibly fast-paced with the quips and strength of character that I've enjoyed in this series from book 1. It was a fun plot and there were some deeper series-wide plot moments with Roland that lead to the belief that the next book may just focus on him a bit more.

I appreciated that this was sort of a "breather' story from the main 'Roland and Friends' plot, while still tying in, and I really enjoyed the return of Kate's Merc-with-a-mouth status! I love the strong partnership she shares with Curran, and the bond with Julie, and all the feels this book made me feel. Can't wait for the next one.

Good continuation of this series. I really like the transition from being in the Keep to not, though I do miss the antics of the Bouda Clan. This series holds up really well which is impressive.

I love Kate. I LOVE her. And I love every character in these books. And I love Ilona Andrews for creating such an effortlessly inclusive world that leaves me sometimes laughing hysterically and sometimes sobbing like a baby. While this wasn't my favorite book in the series, I still loved it, and still find such comfort spending time with these characters and this magic.

This series is better with each book. I like how Kate changed from first book where she was an alone wolf to current book where she has a family and friends. I still doesn't like Curran, he is for me too protective and he wants to control Kate's life. It's not for relationship and partnership is working.
I really like Julie, she has a great sarcastic sense of humor. Second interesting character is Roland, we finally received more details about him and he shows often.
Generally this series is about annoying men characters. I know that it's how it works in this world, but for me it's too much. What shows how great it's written because it makes my angry.
