Magic Bites: A Kate Daniels Novel: 1: KATE DANIELS NOVEL

Autor Ilona Andrews
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 sep 2010

Kate Daniels is about to enter a world of gritty magic and dangerous mystery! Vampires, necromancers and mages abound on the city streets, with one kickass heroine in the middle



Future Atlanta is an interesting place to live: one moment magic dominates, and cars stall and guns fail. The next, technology takes over and the defensive spells no longer protect your house from monsters.

Here skyscrapers topple under the onslaught of magic; the Pack, a paramilitary clan of shapechangers, prowl through the ruined streets; and the Masters of the Dead, necromancers driven by their thirst for knowledge and wealth, pilot blood-crazed vampires with their minds.

Kate Daniels likes her sword a little too much, and she has a hard time controlling her mouth. The magic in her blood makes her a target, and she's spent most of her life hiding in plain sight. But when Kate's guardian is murdered, she must choose to do nothing, and remain safe, or to risk her life by pursuing his preternatural killer. Hiding is easy, but the right choice is rarely easy ...

Readers are hooked on Magic Bites:

'Everything in this story has an edge to it . . . there is humour, but it's of the drier, more wry, and grimmer variety . . . The stakes are particularly high in this novel, in ways that you need to read to find out' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'[Kate] is tough, smart, mouthy and a little arrogant. She is my favourite kind of heroine. She doesn't give in to lengthy emotional blabbering or emotional breakdowns so I love her!' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'I want to add a gazillion more starts to my rating . . . I love the concept of the shifting magic and technology' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'Kate is a kickass heroine. She knows how to use her sword better than she knows how to walk in high heels. She is fierce, strong, reliable, faithful to her friends' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

'I love this book. I love this world. I love Kate. It's still my favourite series. It's fantastic, it's a great start, and if you haven't read it yet, DO IT. And then remember that the books just get better from here, exponentially better' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Recenzii

Splendid...an edgy dark fantasy touched with just the right amount of humor. (Patricia Briggs)


Notă biografică

Ilona Andrews is the pseudonym for a husband-and-wife writing team. Ilona is a native-born Russian and Andrew is a former communications sergeant in the U.S. Army. Contrary to popular belief, Andrew was never an intelligence officer with a license to kill, and Ilona was never the mysterious Russian spy who seduced him. They met in college, in English Composition 101, where Ilona got a better grade. (Andrew is still sore about that.) Together, Andrew and Ilona are the co-authors of the New York Times bestselling Kate Daniels urban fantasy series and the romantic urban fantasy novels of The Edge. They currently reside in Portland, Oregon with their two children and numerous pets.
