Humans out for witch blood

A Perfect Blood by Kim Harrison

December 30, 2018 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

A Perfect Blood is the tenth entry in Kim Harrison‘s series about a witch bounty hunter, Rachel Morgan. This time around, it’s not supernatural beings out for her blood but…humans. Rachel believes the I.S. has called her out to consult, but really they wanted to see if she was the culprit of ritual witch killings. The victims apparently are being experimented upon with illegal demon curses by a group of human terrorists who want to rid the world of all supernatural creatures. Seems a bit counterproductive to use demon magic to rid the world of witches and other such beings. […]

A Road Trip from Hell

Pale Demon by Kim Harrison

March 11, 2018 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

I’ve been slowly working my way through Kim Harrison’s urban fantasy series, The Hollows. For CBR10, I’m finally reviewing the ninth book in the series, Pale Demon. The book kicks off with the powerful witch, Rachel, and her supernatural business partners and BFFs, Jinx the pixie and Ivy the living vampire, on their way to the national witches convention in San Francisco. Rachel also needs to attend her brother’s wedding. She’s excited to see her mom at least. Of course, supernatural troubles won’t make the 2,300+ mile trek across the country easy. If you haven’t read the previous books beware of mild spoilers below […]

Finishing my The Hollows re-read

Black Magic Sanction, Pale Demon, Ever After, The Undead Pool and The Witch with No Name by Kim Harrison

October 26, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

So I’ve been doing a re-read of all of Kim Harrison’s The Hollows books in audio since March this year. This is my review for the latter part of the series (with the exception of book 10, A Perfect Blood, which seems impossible to get in audio book format, either on Audible or in any library I’ve got access to. So with that one, I skim-read the relevant Rachel and Trent parts and moved quickly on to the next in the series. I have reviewed all of these books before, so if you want plot summaries, you can find my original reviews by […]

Hello darkness, my old friend

White Witch, Black Curse by Kim Harrison

May 17, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

3.5 stars This is book seven in an ongoing series. Not the place to start. The review will also contain spoilers for earlier books in the series. Begin with Dead Witch Walking, if you’re interested. For someone who was really rather sceptical to anything but earth magic, considering even layline magic a bit suspect at the beginning of this series, independent runner (think supernatural private detective/bounty hunter) Rachel Morgan has sure come a long way. Now she’s not only a fairly adept layline witch, but her blood (thanks to a rare genetic abnormality) can kindle demon magic and because of […]

In which Rachel discovers some truths about her family she wishes had remained buried

The Outlaw Demon Wails by Kim Harrison

May 1, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

This is book six in a series, it’s very much not the place to start reading. In fact, there’s a whole bunch of stuff revealed in this book that really requires prior knowledge to the books, so go start at the beginning with Dead Witch Walking. Rachel still has absolutely no idea who killed her boyfriend, and because of the memory potion she drank, her memories of the event are still very fuzzy. Someone is summoning Algaliarept, the demon whom she owes favours to out of the Ever After every evening, and he’s determined to cause trouble for Rachel until […]

Confusing Isn’t Always Better

The Drafter (Peri Reed Chronicles Book 1 by Kim Harrison

April 14, 2017 by Julie Leave a Comment

Urban Fantasy is probably my favorite genre. I love the blend of modern settings and magical energies. It’s also a great genre because it’s full of kick-ass female characters. One of my favorite series was The Hollows by Kim Harrison. Unlike some writers who just keep publishing books until the characters you once loved become gross caricatures of themselves (looking at you Laurell K), Harrison knew when it was time to end the series and she wrote the last book a few years ago. Having loved The Hollows series, I was excited to find out that Harrison created a new character […]

Rachel really makes for the most hilariously inappropriate bridesmaid ever

For a Few Demons More by Kim Harrison

April 10, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

4.5 stars This is book five in a series, and most definitely not the best place to start. Begin with Dead Witch Walking, and possibly skip this review if you don’t want spoilers for earlier books in the series. There are dead werewolf women turning up in the morgue, apparently having committed suicide. Someone else appears to be murdering werewolves after keeping them tied up, and after some investigation, independent runner and calamity-prone witch Rachel Morgan is pretty sure she knows what the connection between all the deaths is. During her last adventure, she retrieved an ancient and very powerful […]

My least favourite book of the entire series

A Fistful of Charms by Kim Harrison

April 9, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

Spoiler warning! This is the fourth book in an ongoing series, and not the place to start reading. Dead Witch Walking is where you want to begin. Also, there will be plot spoilers in this review, so if you want to avoid that sort of thing, don’t click the link to read the rest on my blog. Rachel Morgan, witch for hire, discovers that her ex-boyfriend Nick Sparagmos wasn’t just a part-time librarian with a knack for demon summoning, but in fact a thief, specialising in supernatural objects. Now Nick is in trouble, and her business partner, Jenks the pixy, […]
