Dead Witch Walking (The Hollows #1)
Vampires rule the darkness in a predator-eat-predator world rife with dangers beyond imagining - and it's Rachel Morgan's job to keep that world civilized.
A bounty hunter and witch with serious sex appeal and an attitude, she'll bring 'em back alive, dead... or undead.
Rereading the series (or at least attempting to finish it) before the new book 14 comes out later this year. I'd forgotten just how much I adored Jenks - one of the best UF characters of all time!Very much enjoyed this revisit and can't wait to jump into number 2. :)---Fun book! I liked the characters enough to keep going. :)
Im going with a high 3 stars maybe 3.75. I really enjoyed the world created by the author and I liked the comic touches in places. For more than half the book, I was finding it all very entertaining and pretty fast paced. But. I felt the book went on too long and I was starting to wonder if this Rachel was just annoying for making so many bad decisions...I liked the Trent character and hope to see more of him. Clearly theres more to him than meets the eye. Nick I didnt really take to. Jenks is
I liked this series a lot but around book 4 it petered off for me. I need to get back on the horse.
➽ Updated February 2020: third time's a charm. Then again maybe not. Ha.➽ Updated October 20, 2014: I just listened to the audio version of this book and actually loved it! Wow. Miracles do happen. Sometimes. Book 2: The Good, The Bad and The Undead ★★★★★ Book 3: Every Which Way But Dead ★★Original review:I really don't know how I feel about this book. Well, I've given it two stars so I can't say I enjoyed it... The plot was interesting enough and the book could have been exciting but it was
Don't let the cover, description, cover reviews, or hell, even the title throw you off on this one. It looks like a cheesy paperback. Possibly even a twisted romance novel, but believe me it's not.It takes place in a world where instead of going to the moon, money went into bioengineering. Of course something went wrong a virus got out, in tomatoes. Like a plague it started wiping out humans, Inlanders however (people and beings with mystical abilities, witches, weres, pixies etc.) were immune.
4.5/5 stars. *singing* Attttaccccccckkkk of the killer tomatoes! How can I resist starting this review without that lovely song? I cant say Ive ever read a book with so much tomato-hate. Genetically mutated tomatoes have caused much havoc to the human world in the Rachel Morgan universe, and that sets up an interesting world where humans live with pixies, witches, vampires, and other creatures of the night. After I finished the book, I read a lot of reviews on amazon where people strongly

Yes, coherence is indeed me.➽ And the moral of this reread is: erratic as fish pacing + Rachels immature as squid tantrums + manufactured drama galore = bloody shrimping out of here for good I am.[Pre-review nonsense]Yay and stuff, I've finally regained my nefarious senses and rated this book properly andRereading the series (or at least attempting to finish it) before the new book 14 comes out later this year.
