This book is about a 16 year old who is killed right after she turns 17. She snatches her killers’ amulet before he could get away. The amulet gives her the physical illusion of a body. Slowly throughout the book, you find out how she died and why. This book is full of light reapers, ones who sav...
I realized after I started on it that this is clearly not the first book in the story. I liked a lot of the characters, but thought the boyfriend, Josh, was a complete throwaway. As in, way too much time was devoted to talking about someone so irrelevant. Lots more potential with Barnabas and Pau...
Okay. So the story of this trilogy is pretty good. BUT I saw some major continuity issues. In the first book there was a character named Lucy and a dog named Sandy, Nakita white wings and Barnabas had grey wings. In book two Nakita had black wings and Barnabas had white wings. And in the third bo...
I was appalled at how much time and energy the characters spent around changing the outcome of one night. Seriously? Did anyone other than me wonder if the teen, sneaking out one night, maybe by chance find herself sneaking out a different night? perhaps that could potentially have the same dire ...
Cormel, the Master of Cincinnati, has an ultimatum for our favorite witch demon, Rachel Morgan: find a way to return the souls of the undead vampires, or people she loves will die. Forced into a confrontation with surface demons, wayward elves, angry vampires, mob-mined humans, and a mother hell-...
This is the volume you've been waiting for since "Dead Witch Walking." I cannot begin to explain the way I feel about this series. The Hollows novels got me hooked on Urban Fantasy and I have the bookshelves to prove it. We're finally at that point in the story where each of the characters tha...
An easy read that's bursting with details about life in the Hollows. Devin Crossman is a blogger/journalist who has the misfortune of getting caught in one of Rachel's misfired spells, and spends the next few years obsessed with gathering information about her. This book is a collection of his jo...
This was a great follow on to the first and started more or less were the first finished.Madison is still dead and a dark time keeper who is trying to stop the early killing of people and the person she tries to save turns out to be so nasty she starts to question her self.Niketa was annoying and...
Who knew security work for Kalmanack Enterprises would be safer for Rachel than rat fights, or helping Trent escape his fate as a familiar in the Ever After. While Trent still conducts his clandestine business right under Rachel's clueless nose, and has very few qualms when it comes to offing peo...
OkayI liked the action in this installment. Rachel has to be on the west coast for tribunal. Trent has to be on the west coast to retrieve an item Ellsbeth, his former fiancé had if his. Good and action packed, especially our friend JenkSpoilers:Some discordant for me: never is it explained why, ...
I thought this book was great. However, once again, I feel as thought I've been cheated out of Trent's development. I figured he would evolve into a love interest but I was looking forward to his transformation, not his sudden change of character. Him being nice is pleasant and all that but it la...
Keep in mind that The Hollows Insider is reference book of things we already know, before buying this book. If you're expecting new and/or earth shattering revelations you'll be sorely disappointed. What you WILL get is a highly detailed and entertaining read that sums up why this world is so ama...
I thought this book was great. However, there is a big turn around in Trent's character. I wouldn't have minded but it was so abrupt and left unexplained. One minute, he is the snobby spoiled and entitled man, the next he is caring. It felt a little too late for me. It just didn't mesh with his p...
Rachel and Trent are getting ever closer to being the couple you really expect them to become. As for Rachel, she is now coming to grips with her "Demon" status. Al is now more of an ally...sort of the "Spike" from Buffy fame minus the intimate relationship with Rachel.There is a new threat out o...
Rachel Morgan is legally dead and wearing charmed silver to keep the demons thinking just that. But being dead has its drawbacks in the real world, and in order to get her life back, she agrees to take on a case involving demon magic. Through the investigation and her ties with her friends, she...
Kim Harrison and Gemma Magno come together again in the second Hollows Graphic Novel, Blood Crime! So continues the tale of Ivy and Rachel while they were still working for the I.S.This is definitely one of my favorite graphic novel series as I loooove the Hollows! Seeing Rachel and Ivy and other...
Much Much too short, and frankly a bit disappointing. Granted when I pre-ordered, there was no book description. I was expecting something from Al's perspective at the END of the series, as this was supposed to be his last word. Not something set at the beginning. Even so, if the blurb had of bee...
Reviewed by: Rabid ReadsThe Hollows is another one of the first Urban Fantasy series I ever read. The bug had gotten me, but I was still new enough to not really know what was available. I think I was just pursuing every lead Amazon gave me, and that was back in the 3-for-4 paperbacks days, so I ...
It seems that The Hollows is a series that might just be a bit like crack: I don't find it that particularly awesome, and there's a lot about it that I don't in fact like, but overall, it's addictive and hard to stay away from - and dammit, I want more.First, the bad: honestly? Pretty much the sa...
Reviewed by: Rabid Reads3.5 starsWhere to begin . . .I've come to expect a certain kind of action-fueled, intricate, and well-crafted plot from Kim Harrison, and in A Fistful of Charms, the fourth installment of her The Hollows series, the breakneck pace and interconnectedness upheld all of my ex...

If you've read the first 5 books in the series, you know what to expect. If you haven't, don't start here.This volume picks up right after book 5, For a Few Demons More, which includes some shockers that I really don't want to mention here for anyone who hasn't read that one and it makes talking...
A creaky-looking wooden table and several chairs were squeezed into one corner, and in the other, a small kitchenette. The door leading to the bathroom was at the other end of the tiny house, on the left side of the bed. Which was my side. Heaven only knew I’d need plenty ...
My hands were shaking and my legs were weak beneath me, threatening to buckle. I hurt in a dozen different places, and they all seemed to be healing too slowly for my liking. Hunger gnawed at me, begging me to stop long enough to feed. I had lost too much blood between the explosion at Bryce’s ho...
Nose wrinkled, Peri sipped at the cooling drink, levering herself out of the faded chair to nuke it in the microwave. Silas looked up from where he was kneeling over the coffee table with Howard. Styrofoam and plastic bags littered the floor, and Silas gave her a quick smile before Howard recaptu...
Up until I wrote “Dirty Magic” (first published in Hotter Than Hell), I had only a vague idea that they cried inconsolably when someone was going to die, sort of an early warning system in the hills of Ireland, and I tried to keep that kernel in mind while developing my idea of a Hollows banshee....
It was lightweight and breathed well, and it didn’t ride up his shoulders when he reached to shake everyone’s proffered hand. He’d bought it to wear to his graduation, but when this afternoon was over, he was going to give it to Goodwill, even if it was probably the most expensive outfit in the v...
I left the ley line gratefully, the harsh taste/sound of it making me shudder. Ku’Sox hadn’t summoned me, or I’d be fighting for my life by now, and I sighed in relief as I decided that I was in the ever-after, blue sky, white sun, and salty-tasting wind notwithstanding. Nowhere in reality stank ...
Rachel wouldn’t stop fiddling with the vents, and it was getting on Peri’s nerves, the woman angling them just perfect to shift the stray strands of her red hair. It was far too long for a proper agent, and Peri was beginning to wonder who she had in her car. Rachel was an odd mix of confidence a...
That’s Kalla.” The hunter’s name slipped from Gally with an oily hatred, hot and simmering, just below the point of ignition. His hand clenched until the scars pulled, and Newt, standing beside him under the moonlit, fog-coated trees in the ever-after, turned with a smirk on her hunger-gaunt face...
