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.

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.

Love the Kitty series!

Love the Kitty series. another awesome book by Carrier Vaughn. Can't wait to listen to the next one.

Great kickoff to spinoff series

One of the best starts to a spin-off series. Denver Front Range is a solid vibrant presence, ,not just a backdrop to the action.
