Reader Review: I like a strong heroine that can toe to toe with the guys. If you don't you should, pass on this one. The author has a way of ending a story where the plotline of that particular story is concluded, but still leave you with a to be continue feeling. I am willing to let it pass though because I know there is another book coming out and it was an enjoyable read.
Drafted into working for the Order of Merciful Aid, mercenary Kate Daniels has more paranormal problems than she knows what to do with. And in Atlanta, where magic comes and goes like the tide, that's saying a lot.But when Kate's werewolf friend Derek is discovered nearly dead, she must confront her greatest challenge yet.

Kate the Great and the Midnight Games

Reviewer: A reader from England
Kate Daniels is a down on her luck mercenary who also works for the Order of Merciful Aids Atlanta Chapter. Kate isn't a fully fledged knight of the Order, but she works for them nonetheless and also "enjoys" Friend of The Pack status with the local shapeshifters. The Beast Lord who rules over The Pack in particular has taken an interest in her. In Kate's world magic is well and truly out -- leaving the inhabitance to battle its effects as it constantly wipes out technology in unexpected waves.
Magic Strikes sees Kate scraping by two months after the events of Magic Burns and she's a busy girl. She's approached by Saiman to escort him to the Midnight Games on security detail and to observe some probable non human fighters â the games being a kind of illegal paranormal gladiator competition to the death. Kate is asked by Derek to deliver a message for him to someone at the Games. But he won't tell her what it's about. There's also a murder that The Pack is investigating, but the Beast Lord doesn't know about it... On top of that despite declaring his intentions, Curran hasn't contacted Kate for months and she's feeling a little confused.
Kate is reluctant to give into her hormones with regards to Curran because she thinks if she sleeps with him, he'll get what he wants, lose interest, and walk away untroubled leaving her heart broken. There's some fantastic interaction between the two of them in Magic Strikes; I loved that Curran offered to make Kate coffee and ask her about her day -- something she told him she didn't have someone to do for her in the last book.
Kate finds herself embroiled in a right old mess. I loved every single minute of it. The writing was fast paced as usual, and I think the plotting benefited from the slightly higher page count. Kate was fabulous in this book. She was strong and brave and put the people she cared about before herself. Kate really has changed and grown over the course of the books and is a better person for it.

This series just gets better. It is a keeper. I felt that book three flowed more smoothly, but maybe that was because I had a better understanding of the world building, and the relationships between the characters was more estabilished. The interaction between Kate and her new friends is well done. Kate's internal monologues can be quite hilarous. Now I have to wait a year for the next book.. Oh! the pain.

I love everything about this story and have been waiting impatiently until Magic Strikes was released. It was every bit as good as the first two! Derek (the young werewolf that is "bound" to her) gets himself in a heap of trouble with some serious bad guys. Kate is still hiding her heritage but steps closer to her biological father and revenge in this part of her story. Yes, things with Curran are still smoking hot and their relationship is progressing. I laughed outright at several scenes. Kate's internal dialogues absolutely crack me up! The only disappointment is that I'll have to wait for the next book!
