I'm so into this series right now! This is the fourth one in a row and I'm now off to start book 9, [b:Pale Demon|9540358|Pale Demon (The Hollows, #9)|Kim Harrison|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1312794304s/9540358.jpg|12934445] to see what trouble Rachel and co get into next.

Cyn Armistead (14 KP) rated A Night Too Dark (Kate Shugak, #17) in Books

Mar 1, 2018

I've been somewhat uncomfortable with this series since [b:Hunter's Moon|398477|Hunter's Moon (Kate Shugak, Book 9)|Dana Stabenow|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174429360s/398477.jpg|387933], but Stabenow has brought me all the way back into the fold now. Obviously I wasn't too far gone, as I'm still reading the series at book 17 (HM was book 9, I believe?) but Kate finally feels happy again, and that's important to me when I'm reading a series.

The mystery really was a mystery, too. There was no obvious answer, no telegraphing of the villain, motive or means. Stabenow kept me guessing, without making me feel cheated by pulling out some vital clue that the reader couldn't possibly have known.

The last scene was a bit annoying, setting up conflicts that will obviously carry on to future novels, but I was already looking forward to her next release anyway. My sole complaint is that I have to wait too long between releases for my fix. If Nora Roberts can release two "In Death" books plus however many romance books a year, can't we at least rely on one Kate Shugak book a year? I'd strongly prefer two. One Shugak and one Liam Campbell would be better! That way there'd be variety, see? Aren't I nice when I'm being a demanding brat?

This is my second book by Jennifer Echols and I liked this one more than the other, [b:The One That I Want|11765175|The One That I Want|Jennifer Echols|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1318457926s/11765175.jpg|16716183].

I was captivated by this from more or less the first page. As soon as the cop (John) was introduced I was pulled in hook, line and sinker, and God, was it good!

I started this last night, a couple of hours after getting back from my holiday abroad and despite the 8/9 hours traveling time and very little sleep from the night before, I was instantly drawn into it and would not put it down, even taking my laptop to bed with me so I could carry on, getting to half way through before sleep got the better of me. I started it again as soon as I got up this morning and finished it a little while ago.

I will happily read more of the authors work if they're all like this :D
