Kate Daniels is a sharp, guarded mercenary whose vulnerability emerges slowly beneath her confidence and sarcasm. Her interactions with shapeshifter leader Curran are tense and entertaining without dominating the central investigation. The alternate Atlanta setting, where waves of magic interfere with technology, is imaginative but initially complicated. Once the world begins to make sense, the story delivers strong action, intriguing mythology, and excellent long-term potential.
My Rating: 4.25 out of 5 stars
