If you liked Andrea and Raphael in Magic Burns and Magic Strikes, this short story is a must read for you. That is, if you can ignore the repulsive cover.
Magic Mourns takes place about six weeks after the events in Magic Strikes and two weeks before the beginning of Magic Bleeds. In Magic Mourns, Andrea, a knight of the Order, must team up with ...more

If you're a fan of the Guild Hunter series, you'll want to read this novella. It shows how Sara, NY's Guild Hunters Director, and Deacon, her husband, met and fell in love. Very entertaining story!

The Britlingens Go to Hell by Charlaine Harris: (3 stars)
(Sookie Stackhouse, #9.2)
Two Britlingens named Batanya and Clovache are hired to escort a man from Pardua, named Crick, to Hell in order to retrieve an item he's "misplaced". What's a Britlingen? I have no clue. It's not really explained in the story, so I'm assuming it's explained in a previous Sookie novel that I have yet to read.
This is apparently a story that takes place in the Sookie Stackhouse world. How...more

Magic Mourns by Ilona Andrews - 4 stars
Kickass h/h. Loved the emphasis on their romance. It somehow made me love them more, if that's even possible. And all the mythology made this novella that much more interesting. Not sure if I liked the change of narration at the end though. But it was good nevertheless.
Favourite Quote:
“I’m game,” Raphael shivered. “I don’t suppose you have any spare clothes?”
“You should have thought of clothes before you decided to go human.”...more

Magic Mourns is a solid 4.5 star short story about Andrea and Raphael. Just enough action, smexy time and Greek mythology to keep the story intriguing yet fast paced. And we find out some interesting and mysterious information about Curran!!
The Guild Hunter novella, Guild Hunter #1.5, is another solid 4.5 star short story. Loved it!!! Great incite into Elena's BFF Sara and Deacon. So far in the books we haven't seen much of Deacon, so this short story let you get to know him p...more

4 stars... just for Angel's Judgment *g*
For Ilona Andrews, I just read one of her book On the Edge, so I pass Magic Mourns, because it part of Kate Daniels series, and I'm not read it yet (but I will. Soon)
For Meljean Brooks, I'd read her Guardian series and The Iron Duke, but I can't connect with her writing style, so I pass her story too.
For Charlaine Harris, not big fans of her Sookie series, why I read her story? :P

4 novellas, all ostensibly about hellhounds somehow.
"The Britlingens Go to Hell" by Charlaine Harris- Sucked, one star story. Pulled the whole volume down a full star. Took me 3 weeks to read it. If you've read the Sookie Stackhouse books, the Britlingens appear there. Frankly, they were different, but not nearly interesting enough to get me into the story. It was only through sheer force of will that I finished it. The link to the theme of the novels was tenuous at best...more

"The Britlingens Go to Hell" by Charlaine Harris was another interesting story from the author! We first met the Britlingens Batanya and Clovache in "All Together Dead" at the Vampire summit in Rhodes as hired bodyguards protecting a high-level vampire King. I enjoyed the brief preview of these characters from that book, and couldn't wait until Ms. Harris wrote about the two again.

The Goodreads author for this book is misleading: it's actually an anthology of four novellas, with Harris' as the lead, but also including stories by Nalini Singh, Ilona Andrews and Meljean Brook. The stories are paranormal romance, heavy on the paranormal and light on the romance (which I really like).
(Edit: I see that Goodreads includes all authors on the book page, but not the 'write a review page.' I'll look harder next time!)

I don’t read anthologies very often, but once in a while they’re a nice change of pace. I figured I’d love this one because after reading Lori Devoti’s hellhounds series, I fell in love with these evil but lovable dogs. I have to say that I was more disappointed than happy with the majority of the novellas in this anthology. I’ve only read one out of the four authors, Nalini Singh, and she is the standout of the group. The other three don’t even come close to her stellar story.

MAGIC MOURNS
No better way to make this short story more special than to receive it from the authors themselves!! I'll certainly cherish the copy!
But that aside, I will review as objectively as possible. Magic Mourns is a short story included in the Must Love Hellhounds anthology that shifts the focus from Kate Daniels to her best friend, Andrea Nash. She's been handling Kate's affairs at her office until she gets a call to investigate a weird three-headed dog that seems to be runn...more

Angel's Judgement by Nalini Singh: 4.5/5 (B+)
Surprisingly, I enjoyed Angel's Judgment much more than I did Angel's Blood. I don't know if it was the characters or the storyline... Perhaps I felt that there was less world building, as a result the focus was more on the storyline and it made it simpler. Anyway, I liked it, I thought it was a solid novella. The characters were well developed and the story was interesting.

Must Love Hellhounds is a book of four novellas by different authors. My biggest disappointment was that hellhounds didn't have a great deal to do with the first two stories. Yes, yes, the plot in "The Britlingens Go to Hell" turned on hellhound blood, but really any corrosive acid would have done just fine. Honestly, Robin McKinley's "Hellhound" story from the book Fire would have fit in better in this book than the second short story did; "Angel's Judgement" didn'...more
I loved the stories by Nalini Singh, Ilona Andrews, and Meljean Brook. The Charlaine Harris story was good, but not one of my favorites.
"Angel's Judgement" by Nalini Singh was the first I had read by her and resulted in the immediate collection and reading of both her Guild Hunter series and her Psy-Changling series. The story is set right before the first Guild Hunter book takes place. It doesn't go real in depth with the world building, but enough is explained that you a...more

This was a pretty good selection of writings. Despite the title not all of the stories featured Hellhounds; but all of them did include Hellhounds a little bit. My favorite stories were "Magic Mourns" by Ilona Andrews and "Blind Spot" by Meljean Brook. I am a big Ilona Andrews fan and this story doesn't disappoint. Meljean Brook's story was a surprise for me. I though Harris's story was written in kind of an amateurish style and was my least favorite. Singh's story was a bit ...more
This anthology was a lot of fun, and once again, I got three good – even great – stories and one so-so. I picked up the anthology because I was enjoying the Kate Daniels stories by Ilona Andrews, and there’s a story from that world in here. Also, I regularly enjoy the many worlds of Charlaine Harris.
Turns out I found two new writers to investigate, but the Harris story was very forgettable. The easiest way to describe it is, it felt like she was under an obligation to come up with s...more

I liked this! It's a collection of 4 novellas. 2 were by authors I have read before, 2 were by authors I hadn't...
The first is a story by Charlaine Harris (Southern Vampire series). Meh. This was just OK. By far the weakest in the book.
Second was a story by Nalini Singh, whom I've not read before. I liked it, it was easy to read, paced just right for a short story, with memorable worldbuilding and good characters. I might read more of her books in the future.

I'm not really one to pick up anthologies but seeing as though I have to wait at least until June for the next Kate Daniels book, Magic Bleeds, I made a special exception in the case of Ilona Andrews novella Magic Mourns in the Must Love Hellhounds anthology. Usually I'm not a huge novella fan simply because I don't think the format can adequately give an author the time or space needed to truly maneuver characters into a engrossing story. Inevitably, letdown occurs and I'm left dissatisfied. Bu...more

Charlaine Harris's The Britlingens Go to Hell - you've got to admire a story that can do a credible hob of combining magic, Hell, Amelia Earhart, Narcissus and [of course:] hellhounds. These are NOT lovable hellhounds.
Angels' Judgment - Nalini Singh - Although it stood well enough on it's own, I got the distinct impression there were nuances I was missing because I haven't read the Guild Hunter books yet. The hellhound had only a small part - as the original junkyard dog...

I loved Andrews's story, and "Blind Spot" was fun- and the only one in the book where people actually DID love a hellhound!
Harris's was fun, too, though it was a pretty straightforward fantasy with only incidental hellhounds.
I wasn't too fond of Singh's story; that sort of "erotic tension" where people can hardly keep their hands off each other after first glimpsing the other usually seems silly and overdone to me, especially when there's no time to g...more

'The Britlingen's Go To Hell': Was okay but not great, I didn't particularly like the Britlingen characters when they appeared in 'Dead to the World' and this story didn't change my opinion.

This book consists of four unrelated novellas, each featuring hellhounds. The first is by Charlaine Harris, and features two interdimensional bodyguards (who also make an appearance in one of her Sookie Stackhouse novels) who are sent on a mission to Hell. The story was very entertaining, the protagonists likeable badasses, and I enjoyed a surprise appearance by Amelia Earhart. The second novella, by Nalini Singh, concerns angels, vampires, and humans sent by angels to hunt the vampires. I didn'...more

The first story, THE BRITLINGENS GO TO HELL by Charlaine Harris was a pleasure to read. I had read bad reviews, I didn't even remember the Britlingens until the mention of the hotel on fire in their previous mission, but I loved it. I guess I'm a real fan, but who am I kidding, I already knew that! After the mention of the hotel, of course I remembered those costly bodyguards who had raised my curiosity and thought it was fun to encounter them again. It was a cute, stand alone story, even if...more

“Look under the passenger seat in a black plastic bin. There should be a book.”
Raphael hopped out, dug under the seat, and pulled out a dog-eared copy of The Almanac of Mystical Creatures.
“Got it,” I said into the phone.
“Page seventy-six.”
Raphael flipped the book open and held it up. On the left page a lithograph showed a three-headed dog with a serpent for a tail. The caption under the picture said CERBERUS.
“Is that your dog?” Kate asked.
“Could be. How the heck did you know the exact page?”
“I have perfect memory!”
I snorted.
She sighed into the phone.
“I spilled coffee on that page and had to leave the book open to dry it out. It always opens to that entry now.”

“Outside I hopped into our vehicle, the taint of vampiric magic clinging to me like greasy smoke.
“I feel soiled.”
“Like walking into a room after a day of work, falling into bed, and realizing the sheets are covered in cold K-Y jelly,” Raphael said.
I just stared at him.
“With a funky smell,” he added.
My Order conditioning failed me. “Ew.”
Raphael grinned.
“I‟m not even going to ask if that‟s happened to you.”
I started the vehicle. “Has that happened to you?”
“Yes.”
Ew. “Where?”
“In the bouda house. I was really tired and you‟ve seen that place: everything smells like sex . . .”
“I don‟t want to know.” I peeled out of the parking lot.
"So where are we going?”
“To Spider Lynn‟s house. We‟re going to dig through her trash, and if that doesn‟t work, we‟ll do some breaking and entering.”
Raphael frowned. “Do you know where she lives?”
“Yes. I memorized the addresses of all the Masters of the Dead in the city. I have a lot of time on my hands.”
He squinted at me, looking remarkably like a gentleman pirate from my favorite romance
novels. “What else do you store in your head?”
“This and that. I remember the first thing you ever said to me. You know, when you carried me from the cart into the tub so your mother could fix me.”
“I imagine it was something very romantic,” he said. “Something along the lines of „I‟ve got you‟ or „I won‟t let you die.‟
“I was bleeding in the bathtub, trying to realign my bones, and my hyena glands voided from the pain. You said, „Don‟t worry, we have an excellent filtration system.‟”
The look on his face was priceless.
“That can‟t be the first thing.”
“It was.”
We drove in silence.
“About the K-Y,” Raphael said.
“I don‟t want to know!‟
“Once I washed it out of my hair—”
“Raphael, why are you doing this?”
“I want to make you go "Ew‟ again.”
“Why in the world would you want to do that?”
“It‟s an irrepressible male impulse. It just has to be done. As I was saying, once I washed it out—”
“Raphael!”
“No, wait, you‟ll like the next part.”
