It’s not a secret that I love this series. And Magic Breaks has so many amazing scenes it’s hard to fathom that the series is getting better with each book.

Magic Breaks (Kate Daniels #7)
by Ilona Andrews

As the mate of the Beast Lord, Curran, former mercenary Kate Daniels has more responsibilities than it seems possible to juggle. Not only is she still struggling to keep her investigative business afloat, she must now deal with the affairs of the pack, including preparing her people for attack from Roland, a cruel ancient being with god-like powers. Since Kate’s connection to Roland has come out into the open, no one is safe—especially those closest to Kate.
(Kate Daniels Series)
As Roland’s long shadow looms ever nearer, Kate is called to attend the Conclave, a gathering of the leaders from the various supernatural factions in Atlanta. When one of the Masters of the Dead is found murdered there, apparently at the hands of a shapeshifter, Kate is given only twenty-four hours to hunt down the killer. And this time, if she fails, she’ll find herself embroiled in a war which could destroy everything she holds dear…

my thoughts
I love the wit, sarcasm, and the clever banter that are the authors signature. Even after reading the books multiple times, they still make me chuckle and laugh out loud. I must admit there is nothing, no other book that can compare with the sassy and smart dialogues that can be found in every Kate Daniels novel.
Even though Magic Breaks is the 7th book, the character cast is getting bigger and better. I love that each book adds to an amazing cast. Unique characters, with fascinating backgrounds, and skills continue to show up, and stay. This time my most favorite character is a donkey. Her name is Cuddles, and she is a female American Mammoth donkey. She steals the show in every scene she is in, and makes me grin like mad. The way people react to her is hilarious and delivers comic relief between the action scenes that leave me breathless.
Among many favorite scenes, the one when Kate meets her grandmother is one I’m always looking forward to. And everyone’s reaction to Sarrat. It’s easy to see why I love these books so much. Kate Daniels stories are vibrant, all consuming, and action packed. Every conversation and dialogue is meaningful and always contains a slew of mythical information. The research that goes into these books is insane. I would love for the authors to publish an encyclopedia with drawings and definitions of every character and creature that has ever played a role in this epic tale. I often find myself googling mythological beings just to be able to picture them more clearly.
Magic Breaks was INTENSE!!
But when is a Kate Daniels novel not intense. There is always a near death situation. And Curran is always growling and roaring, and Kate always puts her foot down and does what needs to be done.
This time, more and more lines are drawn. New allies found, and old relationships cemented in loyalty and blood. Even though Kate’s closest circle goes through battles and comes out bloody and hurt, their never-ending grit and willingness to fight to protect innocent bystanders is what makes me love them so passionately.
This is MY MOST FAVORITE series. I love the writing. I adore the wit and sarcasm. It’s entirely me, and every time I read these books, I immediately feel at home. This series speaks to me in more than one way. In my mind it’s perfection.
