Kate Daniels Series by Ilona Andrews Appreciation #5 (incl. Magic Breaks spoilers)
Welcome to the Kate Daniels Thread The Kate Daniels series consists of five books so far: Magic Bites. Magic Burns, Magic Strikes, Magic Bleeds and Magic Slays. 1. Magic Bites Atlanta would be a nice place to live, if it weren’t for magic… 2. Magic Burns Down in Atlanta, tempers - and temperatures - are about to flare… 3. Magic Strikes Drafted into working for the Order of Merciful Aid, mercenary Kate Daniels has more paranormal problems than she knows what to do with these days. And in Atlanta, where magic comes and goes like the tide, that’s saying a lot. 4. Magic Bleeds
5. Magic Slays Plagued by a war between magic and technology, Atlanta has never been so deadly. Good thing Kate Daniels is on the job. Fans 01. Andie 02. Chrissy 03. Avatar 04. Nad 05. crazy_diamond 06. DiagonalZipper 07. K'Vruck 08. Shay-La __________________

My friend is reading it.
I need the book so bad. I still haven't decided if I want the ebook and get paperback later or get the hardback. I feel like I will need the actual to fangirl over. I accidently spoiled myself a little. Let me think of a title. __________________

Read it!
The few things I was spoiled about...well I can't find the review now (I didn't read all the way through) but I wonder if at that point they hadn't finished the book. Because those few things weren't completely true. I can see the few things people were upset over and didn't like.
Spoiler:
I'm a little disappointed that the ring he gave her in the end of the last book wasn't even mentioned at all. And the twist at the end...not sure how I feel about it. Nothing will be the same anymore, but it's been foreshadowed. And Roland! I officially love Roland. Hurry up and read it! I need another opinion. I feel like the very end feels like deja vu. I swear I feel like I read it before. __________________

How can you wait that long?
As much as I wanted the actual book, I'm glad I went with the e book. There was so much amazing stuff in there I swear I have half the book highlighted. I typed it all up and there's almost 11 full pages of quotes. And I used a font szie 10. Just to tempt you, in case you want to see one of the Kate/Roland scenes. This is the one where she confronts him about trying to kill her while she was in the womb. It's really not spoilery.

Ha!
Such a shame that Roland doesn't appear till towards the end. Wait till you see how Kate "comes out" that she's his daughter. Well I guess technically there's 2 scenes that you can consider that. And wait till you see Ghastek's reaction. __________________

I'm just under halfway... it's certainly not a filler book like the last few.

I didn't really think the last book was a filler. But definitely book 5 was.
Ok I need your thoughts and reactions. __________________

Finished it! Two quick thoughts, then I'll be back tomorrow with something more coherent:
1) Holy crap! 2) I love Ghastek. He's probably my favourite minor character. __________________

I've always loved Kate and Ghastek's interaction. But this book made me love them more!
And that note at the end!
Spoiler:
It's been 2 weeks right? So we don't have to use spoiler tags? Or do you think we still should? __________________

I liked Roland. And it'll be interesting to see what'll happen now with Kate and Curran being just Kate and Curran and not Beast Lord and Consort.
