Reading a Kate Daniels books is like comfort food for my soul – even though it’s filled to the brim with action – it never gets boring. I love the characters, their relationship, the banter and humor – there isn’t anything I don’t like about this series – and it’s a MUST READ for anyone that loves fantasy.

Magic Shifts (Kate Daniels #8)
by Ilona Andrews
After breaking from life with the Pack, mercenary Kate Daniels and her mate—former Beast Lord Curran Lennart—are adjusting to a very different pace. While they’re thrilled to escape all the infighting, Curran misses the constant challenges of leading the shapeshifters.
So when the Pack offers him its stake in the Mercenary Guild, Curran seizes the opportunity—too bad the Guild wants nothing to do with him and Kate. Luckily, as a veteran merc, Kate can take over any of the Guild’s unfinished jobs in order to bring in money and build their reputation. But what Kate and Curran don’t realize is that the odd jobs they’ve been working are all connected.
An ancient enemy has arisen, and Kate and Curran are the only ones who can stop it—before it takes their city apart piece by piece…

my thoughts
Magic Shifts is one of my most favorite books in this series. There is so much banter, it felt like I was laughing non-stop. All these wonderful new characters and a plot that never got boring made Magic Shifts outstanding in every way.
I love this world. I love the writing. But most of all I love the characters.
Everyone of the characters has their strengths but also weaknesses, and now this being the 8th book, Kate knows her family pretty well, and they know her. I love it when the familiarity brings comfort, banter, loyalty and a love that’s impossible to break.
Since this is not surprising, Kate and Curran have their hands full in Magic Shifts. A big case that is as unique as dangerous, keeps everyone on their toes including the reader. And it doesn’t surprise that I devoured this book in one sitting. Additionally the mythology is as captivating as it’s always been. There is never too much information, just enough to get my imagination running. The fight scenes were amazing. And the way everyone came together to fight the big bad evil was as expected as it was satisfying.
If I had a choice I would never want this series to end. For me it’s like coming home. The writing, the humor, sarcasm and wit fits me to a T. There has never been an authors’ writing that spoke to me the way Ilona Andrews’ does. This is my kind of humor. My kind of wit. I could read their books all week long and never would get bored.
