Book Reviews of Kitty Raises Hell (Kitty Norville, Book 6)
Book Review: The follow up to Kitty's trip to Vegas - this one's even better!
Summary: 5 Stars
One thing that I really like about Vaughn's Kitty series is that even with Kitty's ability to attract supernatural trouble, the stories about werewolf radio talk show host Kitty Norville have such a reality to them that I'd expect to be able to turn on the radio Friday nights and catch Kitty's show. Kitty Raises Hell continues the story begun in Kitty and the Dead Man's Hand (Kitty Norville, Book 5) - Kitty's attempt to skip over all the wedding planning hassle and head straight to the honeymoon by eloping to Vegas with her mate Ben - if you read the book you know how well that worked out for her.
Kitty Raises Hell picks up right after her return from Sin City and though she's breathing a sigh of relief that she made it back to Denver with her fur intact ... (sorry, even though it's on the back cover blurb, I just have to add my own mangled misquote here) ... not everything that happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. It looks like the feline shifter death cult is out for revenge and they plan on making Kitty pay slowly, by taking out Kitty's pack and every thing that she loves first and then finally Kitty herself.
The real difference between Kitty Raises Hell and the previous book -- and this difference makes this an even better book -- is that in Vegas events just happen to Kitty and Kitty survives because she gets lucky, here Kitty takes charge. With her pack on the line, Kitty exercises her power and uses her resources to not only figure out what she's up against in the mysterious invisible malicious entity who smells of fire, but also to give herself a fighting chance of winning the battle with the vengeful spirit. Kitty picks up some fun new allies in the `ghost hunting' TV show cast who are filming their latest episode on location in Kitty's home town and who finally - be careful what you ask for - get the proof of the supernatural that they've been seeking. Kitty also gets an offer of aid from a mysterious and powerful vampire Roman who asks a very high price for his help. But one of the best parts of the book? I love that Kitty turns to her own show and to the expertise of her listeners to get the information that is so crucial to the fight.
Kitty's adventures are always fun, but Kitty Raises Hell is one heck of a good addition to the series and my favorite Kitty Norville book so far. What's up next for Kitty? Reality TV. Can't wait!
Summary of Kitty Raises Hell (Kitty Norville, Book 6)
Sometimes what happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas.Kitty and Ben flee The City That Never Sleeps, thinking they were finished with the dangers there, but the sadistic cult of lycanthropes and their vampire priestess have laid a curse on Kitty in revenge for her disrupting their rituals. Starting at the next full moon, danger and destruction the form of fire strikes Kitty and the pack of werewolves she's sworn to protect.
She enlists the help of a group of TV paranormal investigators - one of whom has real psychic abilities - to help her get to the bottom of the curse that's been laid on her. Rick, the Master vampire of Denver, believes a deeper plot lies behind the curse, and he and Kitty argue about whether or not to accept the help of a professional demon hunter - and vampire - named Roman, who arrives a little too conveniently in the nick of time.
Unable to rely on Rick, and unwilling to accept Roman's offer of help for a price, Kitty and her band of allies, including Vegas magician Odysseus Grant and Kitty's own radio audience, mount a trap for the supernatural being behind the curse, a destructive force summoned by the vengeful cult, a supernatural being that none of them ever thought to face.
