I enjoyed this book because it continues to highlight Cat as a different kind of vampire (even after she became a full fledged vampire). And of course where there is potential for upheaval, there are those scheming to upset the power balance for their own gains. Her differences threaten to upset a complicated power balance between vampires and ghouls. We also of course get the supporting characters weve come to love, sigh, Vlad.įrosts world building also kicks it up a notch in this book as we further explore the political power balance between the different races.Ĭat is a different kind of vampire.

Shes powerful, smart and a little crazy, and we get more time with her in this story.

The ghoul queen of New Orleans has been one of my favorite periphery characters. Review #2 This Side of the Grave audiobook in series Night Huntress While I don’t think that this is the strongest book in the series, I had a good time with it and can’t wait to read more books in this wonderfully crafted universe. She was able to bring this story to life in the most amazing way. I think that one of the reasons that I enjoyed this book more than I did the first time I read it is her narration. I love all of the voices that she uses for the different characters but I think she might deserve some kind of award for the voice she uses for Bones. Tavia Gilbert does such a fantastic job with this series. I cannot wait to get to his books as I re-read this series. I love his scenes with Cat even if he tends to steal a lot of her spotlight. I loved getting to see Spade, Denise, Mencheres, and Kira play a part in this installment. I also have a lot of love for the larger group. I love the way Bones has no problem telling Cat what he feels and doesn’t hesitate to do so. Cat and Bones are always awesome and together they are amazing. There are some other developments in this story that aren’t easy for Cat to deal with. I really enjoyed seeing a little more in regards to Cat’s developing powers and some of the more interesting side effects she encounters in this book. They have to play their cards very carefully in order to get the outcome they hope to see. Cat and Bones find themselves in the middle of a conflict between ghouls and vampires. The last two books in the Night Huntress Universe focused on other couples so I was glad to see Cat and Bones back in the lead for this installment.
