Synopsis: All the creatures of the night gather in "the Hollows" of Cincinnati, to hide, to prowl, to party... and to feed. Vampires rule the darkness in a predator-eat-predator world rife with dangers beyond imagining - and it's Rachel Morgan's job to keep that world civilized. A bounty hunter and witch with serious sex appeal and an attitude, she'll bring 'em back alive, dead... or undead. Review: Though is novel has pretty good balance of relatable humanity and supernatural elements, I didn't feel like I connected very much with the characters or story. I know there's a pretty big fandom surrounding this series, but I just didn't get into it. The overused elements of sexuality seemed unnecessary in light of Rachael being hunted by virtually everyone, and I felt that the characters needed to be further developed - which I suppose they may be in later books...but I won't be reading on. Insignificant scenes seemed to last forever, and it took a while for the plot to become exciting. Overall it was alright, I ended up feeling ok with it. Not upset that I read it, but also not blown away by it. just Meh! (note the exclamation point still). I'm not going to continue on with this series though - there are too many other books out there that I'm dying to read instead! Rating:
