Kitty and the Silver Bullet

By: Carrie Vaughn

Narrated by: Marguerite Gavin

Length: 9 hrs and 4 mins

Publisher's Summary

Kitty's radio show is as popular as ever, and she has a boyfriend who actually seems to understand her. Can she finally settle down to a normal life? Not if this is just the calm before the storm.

When her mother falls ill, Kitty rushes back to Denver - and right back to the abusive pack of werewolves she escaped a year ago. To make matters worse, a war is brewing between the city's two oldest vampires, threatening the whole supernatural community.

Though she wants to stay neutral, Kitty is again drawn into a world of politics and violence. To protect her family, her lover, and herself, she'll have to choose sides. And maybe become what she hates - a killer.

Brought me to tears

I don't cry easily, but Carrie Vaughn's writing, and Margarite Gavin's reading, brought me to sobs during the very touching talk between Kitty and her mother regarding both of their health problems. It was so realistic, as I have been a third person in almost the same situation, and it was so very moving. I, too, have been bitten by Kitty (excuse the pun), and I look forward to every one of her books. As for Margarite Gavin,she reads for several of the series that I am currently hooked on, and she is a primary reason for my addictions! I will listen to her read the phone book. She has a wide range of voices, and knows when to deliver the intonations in her reading. All round- this series is a delight to listen to, as well as a pretty good who-done-it.

Nice addition to the series, added a deeper plot

Ok, something about the name "Kitty" turned me off this book for about a year, finally I gave into to all the recommendations. I am glad I did. She is funny and so unlucky, it reminds me of Stephanie Plum in Janet Evanovich series, but much much more unlucky. I got hooked quickly and I only have one book left in the series. Each book builds on the last, and average about 7 hours a piece just enough time for Kitty to get herself in trouble and right back out of it again. This is not a deep book but enjoyable just the same. It's light at times, funny, and then serious but not so overwhelming that you can't set it down and come back to it. Its a good light read and the narrator was just perfect for the book, she tells the story in a light enjoyable way, and she has become the voice of Kitty in my mind.

Best Book Yet!!

Kitty books are so well done, they are on my auto-buy list. Love the writing, the characters, AND the narration. As a fan of the series, I must point out--these books definitely have a story arc going, so read them in order. In this book, there were hard decisions made, and some very emotional scenes. Lots of action, Kitty humor, and a satisfying resolution made a nice balance. This may be the best Kitty book yet!

never fails

The Kitty series gets better with every book - never fails to capture and keep you reading (listening)

Must read

Kitty Norvell does it again with the help of a great narrator. Worth every minute.

My favorite one yet!

I loved the characters in this book. Great form beginning to end I could not stop listening.

Ben is a Badass

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

Most of the time the performance is fine, but there are times it drives me to distraction. Aside from mispronunciations, for some strange reason MG has decided to give Carl a hokey British accent. Then, the accent she uses for a South African is the same as the accent she used in the last book for a Native American. Needless to say it didn't come anywhere near a South African accent.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This is a good addition to the series. Rick comes to visit Kitty to ask her to return to Denver to support him in his bid for Master Vampire. She refuses, but the the next morning, voila, Kitty's mom is sick and she has to return to Denver. That was a little too pat. Kitty takes back her pack. We learn that Rick, who is older than he seems, has some nifty vampire powers. The Long Game is hinted at foreshadowing future plots.

love these books.

Love these books they just keep getting better and better. wish McCormick was out of jail though.
