Gunmetal Magic
by Ilona Andrews
3,5
I liked it. I just didn't like it as much as i liked the other stories of the Kate Daniels series.
I like Andrea. I won't say that i like her more than Kate. Because they're different characters, and to which one their strenghts, and then, there are some storylines which i prefer above others. Unfortunately, this wasn't one of them. That is my main problem with this story, i just wasn't all that interested in it.
I like the characters, but the storyline wasn't a favorite...
Well maybe, i can just blame it on the snakes....way too much snakes, for my tastes!! :)
And then on the "romance department" i still prefer Kate and Curran "sitting on a tree", to quote Andrea, to this one and Raphael.
I like the way Andrea's strenghts and frailties are portrayed in this story. One would never know how much the past still haunts her...
Even though she started her life as a victim, through the years, with all the choices she made, she has made everything in her reach to never be one again. She's loyal to those she considers her family, and friends. She loves guns, she REALLY, loves guns _ lol _ and then there's Raphael. Her estranged mate.
The scenes where this two bicker and banter away, were amongst my favorites. But then, after a while i just felt like saying: Get on with it!
I think i would have liked reading a few chapters in Raphael pov. That would have helped me connect a little more with this character.
As always, with Ilona Andrews team, the secondary characters are as "grand" as the leading ones. And this one wasn't an exception. The scenes where Roman the black vohlv, appear were also amongst my favorites. So i will have to say that i'm looking forward in "seeing" him again in the "Kate Daniels" world.
