Her new reputation for the dark arts is turning human and undead heads alike with the intent to possess, bed, and kill her -- not necessarily in that order. Now a mortal lover who abandoned Rachel has returned, haunted by his secret past. And there are those who covet what Nick possesses -- savage beasts willing to destroy the Hollows and everyone in it if necessary. Forced to keep a low profile or eternally suffer the wrath of a vengeful demon, Rachel must nevertheless act quickly. For the pack is gathering for the first time in millennia to ravage and to rule. And suddenly more than Rachel's soul is at stake. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Harrison's most powerful book in the series so far...This is easily Harrison's best book in the series so far, and I've been an avid reader of hers from page one of Dead Witch Walking. Harrison's writing is the same as the first three books, so that certainly isn't why this book was such a great read. The plot itself was pretty good, but not something that, by itself, was ooh and ahh. But how it was executed and what she instilled in the characters are what made this such an amazing read. We finally got to see the characters take on ... Read More Rating: - Another Great Rachel Morgan BookIn this book, Jink's son partners up with Rachel's ex, Nick, and Jinks is going after him. Rachel does her thing and comes along to help. But they are in more trouble then they first realize. I group of werewolves wants the statue that Nick stole. It is a power struggle between the weres, vamps, and any one else that thinks they can gain from this. There are a lot of plot twists, as usual, and great action. But this story revolves around Nick and saving his butt. I have to agree that ...

It's time I admit the repetitive descriptions are getting just a wee bit wearing. And yet, it's still a great book! Even that can't lower it too much in my estimation. It's the little things that make this book so good - the way the characters are flawed (and, more importantly, recognize and in some cases embrace those flaws), the way they interact with one another, and the fact that, ... Read More Rating:  - I'm glad my library stocks this book...Before buying a book, I go to the library and borrow it. In this case, with Harrison's series "Dead Witch Walking", "The Good, The Bad and the Undead" and "A Fistful of Charms" (very cute puns on Clint Eastwood films) I'd feel my money would be better spent elsewhere. I *enjoyed* parts of the books, when there was plot evident, but I did not enjoy the constant emo-ing and angsting. Although the plague that wiped out a huge portion of humanity is mentioned once in a while, usually in tandem ...
