About this listen

From New York Times bestselling author, Kim Harrison, comes the first book in an exciting urban fantasy series; packed with the perfect balance of wry humour and thrilling action, which will delight fans of thrillers and fantasy alike.

Rachel Morgan is a white witch and runner working for Inderland Security, in an alternate world where a bioengineered virus wiped out a great deal of the world's human population – exposing the existence of the supernatural communities that had long lived alongside humanity.

For the last five years Rachel has been tracking down law-breaking Inderlanders in modern-day Cincinnati, but now she wants to leave and start her own agency. Her only problem is that no one quits the I.S.

Marked for death, Rachel will have to fend off fairy assassins and homicidal weres armed with an assortment of nasty curses. She's a dead witch walking unless she can appease her former employers by exposing the city's most prominent citizen as a drug lord. But making an enemy of the ambiguous Trent Kalamack is just as deadly as leaving the I.S.

I loved this series

If you could sum up Rachel Morgan: The Hollows (1) - Dead Witch Walking in three words, what would they be?

This is a modern sassy series, fun and entertaining. As I remember I preservered with the first book but loved the rest of the series.

What other book might you compare Rachel Morgan: The Hollows (1) - Dead Witch Walking to and why?

I think its a stand alone, it's part dectective, part adventure, part witchy and some romance. I ended up loving Rachel, Jinx and Ivy

What does Marguerite Gavin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I really enjoyed Marguerite's narration of the series

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

Once I progressed probably to book two I had to listen tot them all. When I found a gap in. The series I read the book on iBooks as I wanted continuity

Any additional comments?

It would be great to get ' A Perfect Blood' to complete the series

Good enough story

What made the experience of listening to Rachel Morgan: The Hollows (1) - Dead Witch Walking the most enjoyable?

I'd say the vulnerability of the main character, the story was also well written.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I cant say i think the narration threw it off for me, maybe if i read the book i would have a favourite character.

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

There was something off with the narrators voice it didnt quite match the character. And she didnt quite pull off the other characters either, I dont know how to explain it but just lowering your voice and making it deeper doesnt cut it for me. I think that if the writer had a different narrator one that actually matched the characters then i would've actually really liked this book, but i just couldnt get past this deep husky pretend voice, or her actual voice for that matter.

Oh how I love this genre but...

This author is a hack. I put this book in the "airport" category. A book that you can read/listen to when other things are likely to distract you. I would never buy anything by this author again.
