<b>quite literally one of THE best Urban Fantasy Series to be written.</b>

I started reading the Kate Daniels Series so many years ago I got through maybe 4 or 5 books before I eventually stopped for whatever reason. I've recently decided to pick up the series again - though this time it would be through an audio book, specifically the <i>Graphic Audio Book</i>. It's a version of the story that is fully and completely immersive - we get an entire cast speaking for every character, background music and sounds. It's the best and honestly the only way you should listen to a fantasy book.

I skipped the first book because I still remember the basics of this world and the characters introduced in the beginning. Kate and Curran (the main FMC and MMC) oh how I missed them! I forgot how entertaining and perfect they are with/for each other. I can't wait to continue reading the series (which is complete by the way) and catch up on everything i missed!

It's a cute story about about a lit professor and a bookstore owner. I was not blown away by it, but I still enjoyed it. I flew right thru it honestly and I also enjoyed the twist about who the love interest really was.
I recommend this for anyone whose looking for a quick romance read or as a palate cleanser in between fantasy books.
