ALWAYS AMAZING...ALWAYS SATISFYING...

Where does Magic Binds rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

There are a few authors whose stories always draw me back over and over again. The stories of Kate Daniels ranks and ties with my number one books.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Magic Binds?

One of the most memorable moments of Magic Binds is the scene where Kate is sitting on the small porch overlooking Atlanta and having a beer with her father, Roland. They have a philosophical discussion about power and forcing change among the people. I think it is a pertinent scene in that it seems to relate to the events happening in our own nation and world today.

What about Renee Raudman’s performance did you like?

Renee Raudman's performance, in all of these stories, is simply amazing. I love the tone of her voice and how well she brings Kate and each of the characters to life. There are a lot of characters in this story and she easily transitions from one character to another. She is one of my favorite narrators.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

I believe the entire series should be made into a film, or at least one of those movies that has at least 3 separate movies. There is so much detail that it would be an injustice to try and cut out any of it. I love the idea of using, "Magic Binds" as the tag line.

Any additional comments?

Ilona Andrews thank you for a phenomenal series. I am a fan of all of your work. As another fan wrote, "...it was a fitting end." Of course, the way you ended it allows for tangent series if you wish to do so.

Loved it. Best Kate book yet. Can't wait to

read the next book. Their son alone with Julie will get into so much trouble!

Renee's amazing narration makes this series

listening to this book is like a play in your mind. each character has an individual personality and the story is great unpredictable and the humor is fantastic without feeling forced.

LOVE THIS SERIES

I love this series!!!!! This story is mainly about Kate's self doubt concerning her magic and her motives. She is definitely a flawed hero but that is what makes her so human and likable. In this series I care about the characters not only the main ones but the side characters too. The struggle between Kate and her father heats up and she goes to extraordinary lengths to defend and protect family and friends. I could not stop listening and stayed up late to finish story. There are twists and turns in this story that I did not see coming and the ending will have your jaw dropping! Please, please, please hurry with the next book.

Excellent!

This is one sci-fi series that only gets better with every installment. The Ilona Andrews duo are really talented authors.

Awesome!

One of my favorite series. Can't wait for the next book. Great characters, great story.

Danger All Around

Kate and Curran should be planning a wedding but of course things just keep getting in the way. This moves the story line forward. Solves some things, brings some surprises about characters, keeps the danger developing and the tension at a very high level. The reader does a really great job of the different voices. The voice matched what was happening in the story adding to the enjoyment of the story.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

Loves the story, loved the ending and I love what this book builds up to. You just know the next book is going to kick some serious butt!! I highly recommend you read and stick through it all!

Ilona Andrews knocks it out of the park!

A fantastic story that fans have been waiting for--from Roman the crazy wedding planner to insane relatives and a LOTR type battle all combined. Kate learns things about herself that she may not like and were definitely unexpected but the usual ragtag crew is there to back her up. This story gets nicely tied at the end but there are just enough loose strings to have you waiting for the next book.
