Product Description
It's a tough life for witch Rachel Morgan, sexy, independent bounty hunter, prowling the darkest shadows of downtown Cincinnati for criminal creatures of the night. She can handle the leather-clad vamps and even tangle with a cunning demon or two. But a serial killer who feeds on the experts in the most dangerous kind of black magic is definitely pressing the limits. Confronting an ancient, implacable evil is more than just child's play -- and this time, Rachel will be lucky to escape with her very soul.

 Scary fun! December 22, 2008
I resisted starting this series of books, but at my sister's continued insistence, I gave them a try. This is the second in the series and I am impressed at how the author is bringing in new characters and blending everyone of them together. Rachel Morgan, a witch with an attitude, continues to get herself in more and more trouble, and the fun is watching her get herself out of it!
P.S. The sex scenes are a little naughty, so if that sort of thing bothers you, you probably should gives this a pass.
 Another great Rachel Morgan story October 30, 2008
Kim Harrison has a great sequel to Dead Witch Walking with Good Bad and Undead. In this book, Rachel is hired to look into the murders of a few ley line witches. She strongly believes it is Trent, even though everyone is telling her that Trent is a perfect citizen.
Along with trying to solve the murder, she is living with Ivy, who is having a hard time trying to control her blood lust. There is a big difference between humans and vampires. And it seems everything Rachel does just sets Ivy off worse.
There are a lot of things going on at once, but they all work out. This is a great book that wet my appetite. I can't wait to read more.
Rachel Rocks September 24, 2008
This is one of the best series I have read. I would recomend it to anyone who needs to escape reality.
Much better than the first August 19, 2008
i actually did not like the main character Rachael in the first book (Dead Witch Walking)...in fact i remember thinking i had no interest in reading a sequel...the plot seemed silly and the character relationships were really weird...i accidentally bought the second book and only realized after a couple of chapters, this was the same ditzy heroine i had vowed never to read again...however, i was wrong, wrong...this time the story line is cleaner, clearer, darker and the magic sizzles...Rachael is still her impulsive, unpredictable self, but she becomes smarter, and it's fun to watch her change in her relationship to the demon and how this subplot evolves. I plan on doing Book 3.
A feast for the imagination... Love The Hollows! August 14, 2008
After having read the first two books of this series I must say that I am hooked. This is fast becoming one of my favorite series and author to read. This the second book picked up roughly where the first left off, so you have a fluid connection from the first book to the next. Right from the beginning I was greedily reading as much as I could, loving everything about Rachel Morgan's world.
We see a couple of aspects explored that I had hoped would be from the first. Namely, Harrison goes in deeper with vampires as well as, and this I loved, demons. She explores both much more in depth, in addition to the typical pixie and witches and warlocks from the first book, which only rounded out and made the Hollows world that much more real. Additionally, an aspect (left unspoken here so as not to spoil anything for someone) that I had hoped and predicted from the first was explored in this installment as well. Very vague, but... I hate spoilers, so I will leave it at that.
Harrison does have a tendency to repeat herself (such as Rachel always saying about every character practically, "I forced myself not to flinch", "I stood my ground so as not to show my fear" and so on), but when the world she is creating is so rich and vibrant, who really cares? We see much more of Trent and Quen, more of Ivy and Piscary, and, just as important, more of Nick and his warlock skills. Oh, and the important character, Rachel explores her powers a lot more. We are also given little treats to feast our imagination, such as a troll swimming in the creek playing with ducks by pulling them underwater. Small, and unimportant in the grand scheme of things, but nonetheless an important part of how Harrison writes.
All around a right rousing read. I would whole heartedly recommend this book, series and author to anyone asking.
5 stars.
