To save the lives of her friends, Rachel did the unthinkable: she willingly trafficked in forbidden demon magic. And now her sins are coming home to haunt her.
As Rachel searches for the truth behind a terrifying murder, an even greater menace threatens, for the demon Algaliarept will stop at nothing to claim her, and the discovery of a shocking family secret throws Rachel's entire life into question. If she is ever to live free, Rachel must first walk willingly into the demonic ever-after in search of long-lost ancient knowledge.
But when you dance with demons, you lay your soul on the line . . . and there are some lines that should never be crossed.
Interesting Twists I really love this series because everytime you think you have things figured out Kim Harrison goes and surprises you. I enjoyed this book tremendously. I find how Ms. Harrison is developing the main character, Rachel Morgan fascinating. She has grown in a lot of ways and powers. She's becoming much more than just another witch with some powerful friends. I have stayed interested in her relationship with Ivy the living vampire that she shares her home with. I still enjoy Jenks although he is starting to get on my nerves with his pixie protectiveness. I think it's great that Ms. Harrison brought back Al the demon is this book. He plays a huge part in this novel. Of course, Trent the elf is always involved however you find out a lot about his and Rachel's childhood in this book. I can't wait to read the next one to see how all of this continues to develop. I'm sure that Cormel has a lot to do with how Rachel's life is going to go. I would highly recommend this book to anyone that is reading the series however if you haven't read the first couple books then you need to go back and read them first.
Loved it - and I almost gave up on Rachel before Book 6 "The Outlaw Demon Wails" puts Kim Harrison back on my must-read list! I'd nearly given up on Rachel, as the last few books seemed to be an endless meandering of will-they/won't-they with Ivy and Rachel claiming to grow up, then making an even stupider decision than usual. Not so in Book 6. Rachel HAS grown up, and the many plot threads were woven together in an engaging and suspenseful way. I loved how this book ended and can't wait to read what happens next.
Hey! No Spoilers! (Beware new readers!) Hey! I was wandering around and found the review that say's a major character is dead! How much does that suck since I'm only on book 5! I also don't know why Kim Harrison doesn't have this book on her book list on her website. can anyone clarify? thanks! and no more spoilers!
Kim Harrison has done better. The novel is ok. It's not her best work. It lacked the thrill and excitement. I'm still a fan, and i still enjoy one of my favorite non-human character,Jenks.
Best book in the series yet! I love this series. Rachel is a wonderful main character and her supporting cast are colorful, creative, entertaining and keep you interested from start to finish. The most recent turn in the story has been the best yet and I can't wait for the next book in this series.
