Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews
BlurbMercenary Kate Daniels cleans up urban problems of a paranormal kind. But her latest prey, a pack of undead warriors, presents her greatest challenge.
This one got off to a slow start and I did keep putting it back down for a while, but after a few stops and starts I finally settled into the book. One criticism is the oblique references to Kate’s own blood and no explanations of why it’s so important, although you will get some suspicions nearer to the end of the novel. The blood issue is something, I’m guessing, the autor is building up to in the next book (or three).
Overall not a bad opening book, if you can stick with it beyond the first couple of chapters. Once it gets going, it’s a good read.
