This is a different world where magic is high . The word building made it a slow read for me the first time around. Vampires are so different in this series. Kate she has spunk.

Vaughn | 3843 comments I started reading this last year but only got to chapter two maybe. I think I was listening to it but had to turn the audio back in. I requested it again so maybe I'll get it before we are done.

The vampires are definitely different.

The..."


It is interesting reading the description of them and comparing to other vampires. These are definitely not "HOT" or sparkly.

Vaughn | 3843 comments just got the audio for this and loading it to ipad tonight. I listened to some on the way home and got a better understanding of the beginning that I thought already understood but really get now. like I didn't get that the magic is knowledge to all and that the Order would have protected her. loading it now. Should take maybe an hr and if not too late well listen to it more tonight before bed.


message 18: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments I also will try to load Dragonbane and Instinct tonight as well if I have time.

I will start the thread. We can use the Dark Hunter thread. I change the book cover to Instinct.

Magic rules the world. The Order is there to protect the people.

If you need further information on the different people or creatures. http://kate.ilona-andrews.com/
No spoilers.

Ooh, I love lists like that. I'm sure it will be really handy once we get later into the series.

How are you liking it so far?

Curran is both yummy and handy in a fight.

Good so far :) I like Kate. The magic is interesting.

I like that she isn't necessarily the traditional heroine. She is kick-ass, has spunk, but doesn't necessarily always want to fight. She wants to survive and looks out for others. I would want her as a friend...not an enemy.


message 28: by Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️ (new)

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
The magic is interesting but also made it a little hard to follow at first.


message 29: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments Think I stopped where she's entertaining some building with granite flooring or something.


message 30: by Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️ (new)

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
Is that where she visits Sahman or the people?


message 31: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments Still reading. She just left the order. The guy drilled get about why she left the order. Or didn't dawn on me that the beast she met was Curan at the time.


message 32: by Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️ (new)

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
Curan is sly.


message 33: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments I'm at some party now with Derek.


message 34: by Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️ (new)

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
Love Derek!


message 35: by Sheri, Bookworm (new)

Sheri | 13553 comments Mod
I like Derek, too. Does anyone else see the similarities between Kate and Anita Blake?


message 36: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments There are people that think one author got these ideas from the other.

I didn't even think of that.


message 38: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments What the hell kind of breast is Curan? I'm at the part where she's having a fancy dinner with Chrest. I like him and I don't at the same time.

He is a lion but he I quite special. I was iffy on Crest too. Supposedly, he likes Kate, but he doesn't even realize she is very uncomfortable at the restaurant. How very perceptive of him...Not.


message 40: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments Things just like blew up for a moment.


message 41: by Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️ (new)

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
Which time?


message 42: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments Bwahaha. I think it's one long blur


message 43: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments Wow I just got this notification.

This book has plenty action and twist and turns.

I'm not liking Crest much...at least not for Kate. Love Curan, though. He's going to be fun :)


message 46: by Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️ (new)

Leigh | 18513 comments Mod
I wasn't a Crest fan either. I just didn't trust him. I love Curan. I like the sparks between him and Kate.


message 47: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments Kate is like Anita. But Kate and Curan are like Mac and Barrons


message 48: by Vaughn (new)

Vaughn | 3843 comments Whoa! A flick of her wrist. Oh my!

Kate is Anita with a sword...much cooler. I agree with the Mac and Barrons comparison.
