A Fistful of Charms

by Kim Harrison

About this book

The author of the bestselling Dead Witch Walking makes her hardcover debut with this spellbinding new supernatural adventure featuring the highly original Rachel Morgan.

Things are going well for Rachel Morgan, witch, independent runner, and one-third of the runner service Vampiric Charms. She’s got a business, friends, even a semi-regular—and always-sexy—boyfriend. So what if Kisten is a vampire? So’s her roommate Ivy....

But an unexpected call for help sends her out of Cincinnati on a desperate trip to rescue the son of her business partner Jenks. It’s fun at first, even with dealing with a human-sized Jenks (you cannot believe how much trouble a 6-foot pixy can cause, especially when he looks like a supermodel...), but the road trip quickly turns dangerous when confronting an old love becomes a fight for survival.

For seeing Nick Sparagmos again is the least of Rachel’s problems--the ancient, mystical statue he has stolen holds the key to sinister, wild magic that can change humans into Weres. And for the first time in milennia, the Were packs are banding together to overthrow human and Inderlander alike. The fight that follows will shake Rachel’s very soul...and she will never be the same.

Awesomeness

Summary The evil night things that prowl Cincinnati despise witch and bounty hunter Rachel Morgan. Her new reputation for the dark arts is turning human and undead heads alike with the intent to possess, bed, and kill her -- not necessarily in that order. Now a mortal lover who abandoned Rachel has returned, haunted by his secret past. And there are those who covet what Nick possesses -- savage beasts willing to destroy the Hollows and everyone in it if necessary. Forced to keep a low profile...

WOW! DARK FANTASY with KICKING EXCITEMENT!

I love to go visit the \"Hollows\" whenever Kim Harrison decides to take me there. I love the action, excitement and just plain fun. I wouldn't want to live there, but I sure do like to visit. Rachel Morgan, an earth witch, demon magic user, vampire lure, and all round woman, finds out her previous lover is in trouble. RAchel is an adrenaline junkie, she just hasn't realized it yet. So gathering up her partner, Jenks, a pixie, she sets out for Cincinati to rescue lover-boy. Not that she is in...

Bottom line: This is a buy.

Review of A Fistful of Charms This is a tough review to do because I really love this series. The writing is above average and you can tell each character is more than what is written on the page. You can see that this series has a bible is more or less mapped out. It's not a series that the characters take full control. I believe each character has a destiny and no matter what they will reach that end, but along the way, there are milestones that are mapped out to ensure the destiny, but they...

better than ever...how long until the next one comes out?

I've just loved this author's style ever since her first effort! I'd been reading Laurel K. Hamilton and Kelly Armstrong and enjoyed both immensely, but when I twigged to \"Dead Witch Walking\" I was hooked immediately! Harrison's books still have all the action you want, but because she has such a good mix of humor, romance, and irony, it makes the characters much more real for the reader. Her characters are vaugely familiar in a \"you remind me of somebody I know\" way rather than just being...
