Magic Bleeds - Ilona Andrews

Magic Bleeds (Kate Daniels #4)

(5 / 5)

Now I am really not one to start swooning over an urban fantasy series… I gave twilight a go and couldn’t get past the first chapter of the second book… I enjoyed the Sookie Stackhouse series but preferred the TV show… I liked Anita Blake, until the books got all strange and turned into porn… But Darn it! The Kate Daniels series is the best Urban Fantasy series I have read so far! And I am swooning!!

Kate is back in the fourth instalment of this fantastic series, Magic Bleeds. Thankfully it gets straight into what we all want to know about… The naked dinner. And Curran has STOOD HER UP! Thus begins the sexual and romantic (and violent) tension between them all over again. Meanwhile, one of Kate’s relatives is causing a bit of trouble releasing deadly magical diseases and killing people. Kate must find a way to save everyone, without giving away who she really is and putting herself and everyone she cares about, in danger.

I just can’t get enough of this series! I literally can’t put the books down! I like everything about them! Seriously! There is nothing bad to say, I might as well end the review here!

The tension between Curran and Kate is SO GOOD! Will they FINALLY get together? You will have to read to find out!

I love the magic, the mythology, and all the characters. I adore Kate! What makes the books is her witty dialogue and thoughts. Not only with Curran (but those are the best because there is so much tension and feelings going on!) but between her and EVERYONE! Even her speaking to her dog. Some of the things she comes out with are just so hilarious. I just find her character so darn refreshing! Curran is also such a great character. He isn’t exactly like your typical alpha love interest. Yes there are some similarities, the possessiveness and jealousy which I don’t like so much, but there is so much more to his character. He REALLY cares about Kate. It isn’t just an obsessive infatuation where one claims they cannot function without the other. There is some really healthy aspects ot their relationship which I find really very refreshing. I have noticed in other Ilona Andrews books that she doesn’t tend to focus exclusively on the romantic element. That is a big part of it, but the magic and the storyline takes precedence.

What I am really interested in now, is where the story goes from here. Now that there isn’t much more she can do with Curran and Kate, I am wondering what direction the future books will take. I think there is a limit on these types of books before they start to get old. And I would love to be proven wrong!
