Whoa. I mean whoa. I am a horrible fan who got this book when it was released and then didn't read it. Why? I have no idea.This was SO. FREAKING. GOOD!
I have to admit, because it had been a while since I'd read the series, it was a little hard to get into, but once the ball was rolling, I had to work to keep up! And while I realize that in PNR, authors have quite a bit of leverage in terms of where the story can go (no annoying reality or physics to deal with, lol), this was really imaginative! And I loved that Trent sort of grew a pair and decided what he really wanted and completely backed it with his actions.
Now I look forward to the end of the series. It will be bittersweet to see it end, but I also think it will be phenomenal.

The Undead Pool Hollows Kim Harrison 9780061957932 Books Reviews
I have read the whole series, so this isn't particular to this book, but the main character frustrates me in as much as she won't kill anyone (though they deserve it), even though she talks smack (a lot), but when it comes down to it her morals are more important than the people in her life. There are many instances when if she had put the greater good ahead of herself - and she whines in her head that it's all her fault and usually it is - several of the people in her life would be alive. I hated this part of the books. The action, the twists and turns, the unexpected surprises, the relationships, etc. All good! I would rate them a 5. But the main character pissed me off so many times, I wanted to smack her myself. At times she acts like a bully and wonders why people react ugly. At others she doesn't react when she should. Overall I would recommend this series, but wish the author would take this information and use it in her next series.
I enjoy this series enough to stick with it until the end. Like many reviewers, I think the first books in the series were stronger than later ones. I only buy these when the price drops low for the kindle editions, they aren't worth the full price in my opinion. I enjoyed it but was able to set it aside for several days at a time and come back to it later. When a book really pulls me in, I can't do that and have to read it every chance I get until completed. Despite the horrible things Trent has done in the past, I can accept a romance between Rachael and himself. She doesn't make the best choices in men so I believe it. The relationship was just so slow going, it drug out too long. a this point they've known each other for years, if they want to do the deed, just get on with it. Rachael is constantly pining to touch his hair and she gets way too excited when he touches the small of her back which also happens a lot. I can think of other safe body parts to touch in the presence of other people. When the author introduces the concept of the mystics as a magical force, it was hard for me to picture in my head. Normally her descriptions and explanations of the different types of magic and paranormal forces are well done but the entire mystics phenomena was shady. Maybe that was the intent but it didn't flow well for me.
This is a big story in this series because Trent and Rachel finally become a couple. They have been enemies, allies, employer-employee and many other things through the course of this series. They have been flirting with each other and wanting each other and denying each other for what each deems good reasons for two years. Elves and demons are not supposed to have a relationship of equals. After all, elves and demons fought a war which isn't ancient history to the long-lived demons.
Both Trent and Rachel are dealing with other big issues too. Strange magic is attacking Cincinnati and spells are going wrong. It is like they are all supercharged. Besides that the Free Vampires have found some way to put all the Master Vampires to sleep which is leaving the Master's vampires rudderless and confused.
Then there is the ancient elven goddess who is wandering around. The Free Vampires are trying to catch pieces of her because the pieces are essential to keep the Master Vampires asleep. Rachel becomes a magnet for these pieces of the Elven Goddess and they come very near to making her insane. She has to find a way to free these pieces from the Free Vampires and reunite them with their goddess.
Trent is also facing issues with other elves. Ellasbeth is making a play to keep his daughters from him and he is losing his role as speaker in the elven enclave. That means his political influence in Cincinnati is decreasing.
This was an excellent story which makes me want to read THE WITCH WITH NO NAME immediately. Luckily, it is on my waiting for me.
