Book Reviews of Kitty and the Midnight Hour (Kitty Norville, Book 1)
Book Review: For a first book
Summary: 5 Stars
Carrie has written an unusual novel for the Modern Supernatural genre. First the heroine is a DJ. Second as an accident of boredom, she creates a new radio talk show in which the supernatural world is talked about by both the mundane and the supers. What is not so unusual is that she is a super and struggling to keep those of the mundane persusion from discovering what she is, this also includes a police detective, her lawyer, her boss, and her listeners. Kitty Norville, the heroine, is a delightful character who deals with being a recently coverted werewolf, 3 years ago, in her personal life; while answering the concerns and fears of her supernatural callers.
Like my other favorite authors in this genre Carrie has taken an effort to develop the cultures of the werewolves and the vampires, while immersing them into our world today. What I am really enjoying is how she has slowly but surely introduced the supes to the mundane world, some authors have worlds where some or all of the supes have come out of hiding, but none have discussed what happens when the mundane world finds out that their safe world has real monsters living right next door. Her second book, Kitty Goes To Washinton, sends Kitty to Washinton to face a Senate hearing on Supes.
Again, like all my other favorite book, characterization is very strong, the plot is well paced, and well thought out. Kitty must deal with real problems in her personal life, pack politics can be fatal; and the consequences of her public life, most supes don't want to come out of hiding, and the heads of the local were pack and vamp family look at her continued airing of the show as personal challenges to their preciuos authority; while she comes up with answers to her troubled, mostly recently turned weres and vamps, listeners. The show gives her a fealing of accomplishment and self worth, along with a good income as it starts to become nationally syndicated; so she fights for her show even against assasins and rogue wolves.
