Publisher's summary

Audie Award Finalist, Paranormal, 2014

The ever after, the demonic realm that parallels our own, is shrinking, and if it disappears, so does all magic. It’s up to witch-turned-daywalking-demon Rachel Morgan to fix the ever-after before the fragile balance between magic users and humans fails.

Of course, there’s also the small fact that she caused the ley line to rip in the first place, and her life is forfeit unless she can fix it. And that the most powerful demon in the ever after - the soul-eater Ku'Sox Sha-Ku'ru - has vowed to destroy Rachel, and has kidnapped her friend and goddaughter as leverage. If Rachel doesn’t give herself up, they will die.

Forced by circumstance, Rachel teams up with elven tycoon Trent Kalamack - a prospect fraught with dangers of the heart as well as betrayal of the soul - to return to the ever after and rescue those she loves.

Both worlds teeter on the brink, one on a possible interspecies war, the other for its very existence, and it’s up to Rachel to keep both from being destroyed.

Love love loved it!!

I thought it was incredibly devilish, captivating through every chapter. Kim Harrison outdid herself with this one!!

Loved this.

One of my favorites in the series! I love how comfortable Al is getting. Lol.

Harrison remains true to her fans!

I started reading this series in paperback. Not only does Gavin perfectly nail each character ... Every time.. Harrison also brings us full circle by allowing the reader to spend some much needed time catching up with our old friends. Another exquisite read from the Hollows brought to life by Gavin. Another pleaser is this book costs ONE CREDIT. Thank you; I was starting to resent the two-credit pricing structure. All in all: HOORAY!

An enjoyable listen for Rachel Morgan fans.

Would you consider the audio edition of Ever After to be better than the print version?

No idea - I'm an audiobook fan.

Any additional comments?

I'm a big fan of the author (hipster alert - I bought her first book the day it came out on shelves, so I can say with all honesty that I liked her before she was famous) but honestly, it's getting a little bit tiresome reading about a woman who seems so conflicted about every single relationship in her life.

I want more.....

I LOVE where this story went.

Everyone had to get a little understanding of each other to get past age old hate, to save them all. The world changes for them all anyway. The end of this book opens up a whole new world of options, possibilities and dangers for Rachel and Trent.I hope the Kim Harrison goes there even if it takes Rachel into a different series. It will be sad to leave old friends behind but that makes room for the new. Growth always come at a cost.

LOVED IT!!!

Absolutely amazing, from start to finish. I think this is my most favorite series, and I think Kim can keep it coming. I can't wait to see where Trent and Rachel go in the next book. I love them together.

Excellent!

I became a little disappointed with the earlier books however, lately for me, Kim Harrison and Marguerite Gavin have redeemed my liking for this series. I love the characters and the human quality of Rachel. She's emotional and speaks at the wrong time. I find this quality realistic, funny and frustrating. The relationship between her and Trent Kalamack is interesting.

I recommend this book highly. It will definitely keep your attention and you'll get an opportunity to read about or listen to the happenings going on with Rache's friends.

Thoroughly enjoyed this audio. I believe if you're a fan of Kim Harrison, this is definitely worth the credit. If you're new to this series, start with book one.

Loved it!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

These stories are great and Marguerite Gavin does a wonderful job. Love these books.

Any additional comments?

Is anybody safe?

By far, this was the most edge-of-the seat book in the series (to date). I was actually concerned for the well-being of key characters; especially after a couple (no spoilers) of heavy duty supporting characters come to a gruesome end. For the first time, I wondered if Rachel and Co. would escape this one intact.

My ONLY negative here (and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5) is the Rachel/Trent relationship tango. Enough already. Either they are or they are not, but you can drag things on a bit too long/too far, and I believe that is the case here.

Harrison's strength is adding depth to even the minor characters that populate her world. It is one of the reasons that she has set a benchmark for the genre.

Great book!

I love this series, I love the narration, I loved this book! The book was action packed and it brought back one of my favorite baddies- Nick! I'm not sure about the whole Rachel/Trent thing. It does make things interesting though so I'll just deal with it. The earlier books were so focused on weres and vamps that it's been interesting learning about the origins of demons and witches. This was a great addition to the series and I cannot wait for the next in the series.
