I'm pretty sure that this would be a 5 star except that I had the feeling that I was dropped into the middle of the story and had to figure it out on my own from there. I enjoyed the characters, the dialogue and will definitely continue--hopefully I know enough from the first book to feel like I actually know what's happening next time. ...more

There is humor, action, a tiny bit of a potential romance, and a great mystery. The world building is top notch and I was fascinated by all the details of magic vs tech.

I have re-read this entire series many times. I love Kate and Curran.

I think I loved this one more the second time! Kate will always be one of my favorite heroines.

I can't believe it took me this long to start this series. What was I thinking? Excited to get on to the next books.

This is by far my favorite series. I always come back to this series, but the 1st book is a bit rough to get through and I tend to skip a few parts.
Graphic Audio has done its magic and revamped the story. I was truly excited to see what could happen. There was no Graphic Audio Edition as of yet so I will link it.

I'm very glad I started getting the Graphic Audio versions.., And I was very eager for GA to have a turn at Ilona Andrews Kate Daniels series. GA did such a fantastic job with the Innkeeper series, I was on pins and needles. As a member of BDH and have been a huge fan of House Andrews for years, I liked most of the books as they were but always interested in the new turns. I like a lot of the choices for the characters and will get used to others that didn't grab me right away. My only complaint is that as a person who happens to be losing my hearing, it is getting difficult to make out certain voices. This is a sound engineering thing, and I keep hoping it will get better with more works GA does. This really stands out with the background voices and sounds. I may know the story but I rely on my memory to fill in the confusion, rather than actually making out what a character says or sounds expressing. I had a difficult time hearing Curran. At first, I wasn't liking the voice but it was because I really couldn't make out half of what he was saying. At the end of Magic Bites, Currans' POV is clear and I could actually hear him clearly. (THANK YOU BTW, I LOVED the added shorts and POV this makes it worth purchasing on GA and Audible. And yes I did pay for both because I'm too impatient and I want to support GA as much as possible!) It will take time to get used to some of the voices but overall I did like it, after a few stops. Dr. Dolittle though, pretty much had to stop. Coastal Georgian. That was not what I expected. You win some, you lose some. Great job to the team and thank you! ...more
