The Hollows series is probably my number 1 series if I really had to make a choice. I first discovered it by accident in the library some years ago. I didn't know anything about Kim Harrison or about The Hollows but I picked up Dead Witch Walking just because the cover looked cool and I was hooked immediately. If you have never read The Hollows before there may be spoilers for you in this review so be warned. But I beg you to please try this series it has everything you could possibly want, witches, demons, vampires, spells, love, friendship, laughter and sadness. So after Pale Demon which was book 9 we know that our favourite itchy witch Rachel Mariana Morgan is now a Demon after Trent's dad genetically modified her blood when she was a child in order to save her life from the fatal Redwood Syndrome. We also know that Trent has given Rachel a bracelet with an Elven charm woven into it so that she cannot use her Demon magic and thus let her Demon mentor Al know that she is alive and well. We also know that the world has written Rachel off as dead and that is where the story begins with Rachel trying to get her driving license renewed. It is here that we meet three new characters Wayde who is Rachel's were bodyguard, Nina who is a living vamp working for the office where Rachel is trying to get her license and...well for now I will call him Mr O. Mr O is a very old dead vamp who is head of the IS and he channels himself through Nina in order to talk to Rachel. I knew this book was going to be fab as soon as Rachel meets Mr O. In my opinion I don't think there is anyone better at writing a scene for a vamp than Ms Harrison. The tension between Rachel and Mr O comes across so well that I was literally holding my breath reading it, nothing is rushed so the anticipation builds and builds, it is scenes like this that made me fall in love with The Hollows. Mr O informs Rachel about murders that are taking place that look like Demon activity and makes an offer that Rachel cannot refuse. Of course this means that Vampiric Charms aka Rachel, Ivy and Jenks are back on a case. For me this was like an early Hollows book with Rachel, Ivy and Jenks on a run and I loved it. It was so nice not to have Pierce in the book nor spending lots of time in the ever after either. Al does make a couple of brief appearances but even though they are short they are well worth it. And what of Trent I hear those of you who read Pale Demon ask. Ahhh Trenton Aloysius Kalamack the rich powerful businessman elf, how my feelings about you have changed over the course of 10 books, from hate to not liking to having a crush to full on loving you. And how you have changed too but none more so than what we see in this book. Mmmm what can I say about Trent and Rachel.....well for me the story between them was spot on but I can see some people may not see my viewpoint but that is all I will say. We get to see a fair bit of Jenks and Ivy in this book and we are not allowed to forget Kisten either and just like Rachel I still miss him. This is right up there in this series for me I absolutely loved it and would like to give A Perfect Blood 5 stars.

Wow, this 2nd installment of Red Cloud Wolves heightened beyond my expectation! In this book we'll see Lan and Dark 40 years from the event in Silver Dreams. Lan gained his position as a tribe's Alpha while Dark kept his place as a shaman. This time they struggled with separation of the tribe because Canyon's getting more cramped with men thus they need to move for the sake of tribe's, and also, for the werewolf existence. After reading the 1st book, I didn't get my expectation on this book up high. But boy if I was wrong! In this book, the plot's portion was good, so much better that the prequel. We could see the problem's had a same portion with Lan and Dark's relationship. This book also told mostly from Dark's point of view, about how he saw his relationship with Lan, and any sentimental musing about Lan that he showed. We got to know Dark more here, quite covered up his lack of exploration in the first book. The relationship between Lan and Dark also heart-warming without being cliche, and surely showed that they both still held their masculine's code high. They were equal, and I love that kind of relationship. The conflict also great. While in the 1st book the conflict just appeared in the first few pages and the resolution in the few last pages, in this book it covered an enough amount of pages to keep me edgy, moreover the time when they're hiding from the hunters. So yeah, beyond my expectation and at a great result, I hardly found a novella with great proportion like this. And oh, there's some hint for the 3rd installment. I can't wait to read it.
