About this listen

Number-one New York Times best-selling author Kim Harrison returns to the supernatural adventures of Rachel Morgan in the penultimate book of the Hollows series.

Witch and day-walking demon Rachel Morgan knows magic - earth, ley line, even the forbidden demon magic - and that knowledge has saved her life more than once. But now something - or someone - is attacking Cincinnati and the Hollows, causing spells to backfire or go horribly wrong while living vampires attack humans and Inderlanders alike.

The pressures build when the city is quarantined to contain the unreliable magic, and Rachel must stop the attacks before the undead vampire masters who keep the rest of the undead under control are lost and it becomes all-out supernatural war.

The only way to do so is through the ancient elven magic, but that carries its own perils - for magic always has a price, and gods do not come lightly when called.

Unbelievably Satisfying!

I waited a long time for this (it seemed like forever!) and Ms. Harrison delivered as always :) I totally enjoyed the book. I always like the idea of Rachel and Trent being together, even way back when he put her in the rat's cage! (I think it was a rat, hamster..or rodent of some kind...humm may have to start back over and listen to it again :)) I was really pulling for Ivy....never felt good about Rachel and Ivy hooking up, lol but it was tempting :) Who I was excited about was Nute (sp?) I liked her/his role in the story a lot better than past ones. It seemed like everyone was content or happy except for Al, poor demon. And for all the action junkies, yes we had shoot-um up, blow-um up and knock-um down action. Oh, and I LOVED the mystics! Just imagine what trouble Rachel could get into with new powers from the mystics? ( hint, hint, and a wink) This addition to the series was a good as gorging on chocolate and almonds and finding out you lost 5 pounds because of it!

A Perfect Tale - Al Gets What He Deserves!

What a great story! Trent and Rachel work very well together now, and there are the usual interferences from Trent's "ex". Newt is very much front and center in this tale, adding adventure and a lot of story backfill that makes the book a rich read. Have a listen to this one for a great escape!

Whew!

Rachel is a heroine we all love because she is just so bad at it! In a good way, of course. She spends an inordinate amount of time saying "I'm sorry", but in the end, she gets the job done.

Without delivering any spoilers, I was very relieved when I finally got to the end of the book. I would have been very sad if it had ended any other way.

Keep them coming!!!!!

Would you listen to The Undead Pool again? Why?

Yes. To absorb details I may have missed the first time around.

What did you like best about this story?

The story line and the narrator.

What about Marguerite Gavin’s performance did you like?

She is wonderful! No one could do Jenks better than her!!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

So Thrilled that Rachel and Trent are finally together, but want Rachel to kick ass again without second guessing herself now that she's in love. I was extremely sad to see the relationship between her and Al come to an end. I hope it is just temporary.

Any additional comments?

I think Kim Harrison was up for 12 or 13 in this series. I hope they sign her at least a few more as I don't know how you could cram all the is left unanswered into just one more.

Just Eh

This book was not as good as the others and left me disappointed at the end. I expected more since it was the next to last book. The ending felt like it should have been the middle.

Loved it. Always good, always enjoyable.

Not only is it a great addition to the Hollows series, but the voice bringing Kim Harrison's world to life is as flawless as always. Enjoyed every minute of it.

Wickedly Wild Words make for dramatic story

Vamps, weres, and elves!! Oh My!!! The Undead Pool was packed with so much excitement. Kim Harrison blew me a way with this story. Rachel is into it over head, surrounded by wild magic and at serious risk. She will need everyone standing by her side to survive this one. Totally shocked over who came to save Rachel's mind. The question is will Rachel be able to accept what she has to give up to have love.

03/10/20 Wicked Wild Words!!! I listened to the audiobook. The Narrator out did herself on this story.

My Favourite Hollows Addition!!!!

What can I say here, This book was amazing all the way through.. Its beginning was good and different and the whole book was different than usual, I have really enjoyed this book.. It was full of everything (action, love, hate, and everything)!!!!

Much much development to all the characters, all of them, and too many things got fixed and corrected.

Narration is as good as always.

Really loved this book.
