At first I wasn’t sure if I was going to read the entire series (currently 6 books, plus 1 to come) or not. Then it got interesting. Picture this: College girl, somewhat naive, goes to a party, doesn’t get taken home properly but raped instead. She throws herself out of the asshole’s vehicle and after asking her if she wanted a ride home, he drives off. This is (of course) the night of the full moon and she’s near the picnic area of the park.
This isn’t where the story starts off, though. This is simply the explanation of how Kitty got to where she is at the beginning. And then things heat up even more. You see, she’s a werewolf. Named Kitty. She’s a DJ at a little station in Denver and plays all kinds of heavy and classic rock late at night. It all starts when she can’t keep her mouth shut and she starts talking about the things that go ‘bump in the night’ and taking calls.
At first people think it’s a joke, a way to boost ratings, and then someone tries to kill her while she’s on the air and she has to admit what she is. She could have saved herself the trouble simply by having the show go off the air but she was too hyped up about what it would mean for ratings and so forth.
After this Kitty is launched nationally on the airwaves, exiled from her pack and Denver and living on the road going from city to city. Her adventures take you all over and she befriends the hunter, Cormac and even puts his lawyer, Ben (who’s also Cormac’s cousin) on retainer. The story doesn’t end there. Find out what happens between Cormac and Kitty (werewolf hunter and werewolf), how Kitty brings the monsters into the light of day and saves a bunch of them as well, and how she returns home to Denver.
Again, I didn’t think I’d like this series but the characters are well written, no one is perfect and arguments aren’t always reasonable. They are quite human, so to speak. So take a chance and read them, you’ll like what you’re getting into. I’ve read the first 4 and I plan on reading the rest. Enjoy!
