Low Midnight

Kitty Norville, Book 13

De: Carrie Vaughn

Narrado por: Marguerite Gavin

Carrie Vaughn's Low Midnight spins out of the Kitty Norville series on the wave of popularity surrounding Kitty's most popular supporting character: Cormac Bennett, a two-minded assassin of the paranormal who specializes in killing lycanthropes. In his first solo adventure, Cormac, struggling with a foreign consciousness trapped inside him, investigates a century-old crime in a Colorado mining town, which could be the key to translating a mysterious coded diary... a tome with secrets that could shatter Kitty's world and all who inhabit it.

With a framing sequence that features Kitty Norville herself, Low Midnight not only pushes the Kitty saga forward but also illuminates Cormac's past and lays the groundwork for Kitty's future.

"Vaughn keeps the twists and turns coming in this fast-paced, delightful paranormal mystery." ( Publishers Weekly)

I enjoyed seeing the story from Cormack / Amellia's view. Nice change from Kittie's view.

Cormac's story!! It was very good. :D

4 stars

This was a very good addition to the Kitty Norville series. This story centers around Cormac (and Amelia, the disembodied spirit that shares Cormac's body) with Kitty and Ben showing up a bit but they aren't in the majority of the story.

In this story, Cormac is working on getting a way to decipher a journal that has some information that will help them all fight against the vampires that are taking part in the "Long Game" (a plan for vamps to take over the world). To get the info he needs, Cormac has to investigate something and this investigation leads him into some encounters with his past. Cormac and Amelia have an interesting time and during their current adventures, we get some more information on the pasts of both Cormac and Amelia.

I enjoyed this story very much. I liked getting the chance to see Cormac in his own story and get more info about both him and Amelia. There's no romance in the story but I was alright with that...Cormac's situation is too difficult for a fast romance to be thrown in for the hell of it. The story was good on it's own but I was especially happy that it did advance the series storyline decently (especially at the very end). The case that Cormac is working in this story gets solved but there is something that's rather significant (but not urgent) that happens at the end...it's not exactly a cliffhanger but it does make me hope that Carrie gets the next book out soon! I'd recommend this to series fans. People that haven't read the series could read this and enjoy it but it would make more sense as part of the series.

Spin off of Kitty Norville

Really enjoyed this side of the stories and look forward to where they will take the characters.

Interesting change of pace

This novel focuses on Cormack and Amelia. It does move the Roman story arc along a bit, but what it really does is develop the relationship between the two inhabitants of Cormack's body. Cormack deals with some of his own issues while solving a hundred year old magical murder.

Good addition to the series!

I liked this little addition to the Kitty series...I have always like Cormac's character and am glad we have gotten a peek into his life...I would love a Rick book...and a book from Ben's perspective....this is one of my fave series...and hope there is many more books to come...If you like Kitty's world...this is a must read...I give it a 2 thumbs up and a highly recommend!

Great book

Another captivating tale for Carrie Vaugn..Storyline was intriguing and narration excellent as always. Well worth the time to listen.

Love seeing Cormac and Amelia’s perspective

This is a fun one!! Great narrator as usual, too. Hope there’s more in the series from his/her (or plural-they/them) angle!

I love this series

Interesting as the story moves on, but told from Cormick's pov. Big cliffhanger ending, but I was captured by the book from the first word to the last.
The narrator, Margurite Gavin is one of my all time favorites. She is the reason I found this series in the first place. No matter what she reads it's brilliant!

Good

It's good to see things from another point of view. This story gives insight into the characters f2fghoughts and actions while answering questions.
