THIS IS A AWESOME SERIES FOR THOSE WHO LOVE THE PARANORMAL...YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!

At first I had a hard time getting involved in the story, but once I did, I could not put it down. This is a very different story line than I am used to. The main character is a witch who lives and works with a vampire. As the book progressed you sort of believe that the characters could be real. The plot became very exciting and kept my interest. When I finished reading this book, I immediatly went on line to order the rest of the series. Don't be discouraged if you can't jump into the story right away. Give it a little time and you will be hooked.

I loved this book. But then again I do love all of Kim Harrison's books. They are different, exciting and hard to put down.

I really like Kim Harrison's world of The Hollows. I thought the doomsday scenario for mankind was very interesting, at the hands of tomatoes no less. Sounds like the attack of the killer tomatoes. At first I thought her heroine Rachel Morgan was an Anita Blake wannabe. But I have actually become a big fan of Rachel and her entourage, especially Jenks,the stud muffin, naughty boy, potty mouth pixie. There are sexy vampires, living and dead, galore and a teasing bit of romance, could use a little more. I actually came into this series back end first by reading For A Few Demons More. It was difficult to understand what was going on but I made it and then decided the storyline was worth pursuing. I have collected the Morgan series and am happily reading my way through this exciting world. While not having the same punch as some other novels in this genre, I still think it is worth the time to get to know this world.

This is a great book to read if you like witches, vampires, werewolves etc. You find yourself rooting for the heroine and becoming a huge fan of the pixie Jenks! At first it moves pretty slowly but then picks up a fast pace.

I've read four books by kim harrison and have never regretted turning one page. I adore these books, they give me both Plum and Baker in a way that I did not think was possible. This first book is a wonderful introduction into life in the Hollows.
The characters are vivid and realistic, it's funny, and I actually like everyone,some bad guys included (Kisten). If you invest in this series you will NOT regret it. Jenks is a hoot!

This book was actually pretty good.I was skeptic about reading it, but it turned out really well. Amazing characters, great plot.

This a wonderfully entertaining read.
With unforgettable characters,intrega,suspense,mystery and humor,with just a dash of sexual erotic tension. Set in a world where magic, myth and man cross paths every day. A place where magic is real. You will find a witch with powers even she has yet to discover and a target on her back, a living vampire with a unwanted destiny and a pixie with big ego and a even bigger family. They team up to become private eyes for the darker side of town. You will be captivated as mysteries unwind only to present new ones. A read in which once you pick it up you can't put it down and it leaves you wanting more. Kim Harrison has a unique grip of the nature of the occult, of Wicca and of relationships, both human and unhuman. I loved this from begining to end. I could not wait till the next book came out. Give it a try and take a ride on the wild side.

This title is the first in an engaging and addictive series. Rachael Morgan and her partners in Vampiric Charms, living in a Ohio church, bring evil doers to justice with a minimum of gore and overt sexuality, but with well-crafted language and plot. The action is quick and quirky, the characters are well-developed and personable. I highly recommend the series for all fans of paranormal good guys.

A PRETTY GOOD BOOK ALTHOUGH SOME PRETTY SCARY PARTS. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT FOR ADULTS!!! THE TITLE MADE ME WANT TO READ IT BECAUSE I LOVE DANGER DARK CONTENT!!

I love these books. They are sexy and fun. I wish there were more. I can't stop reading them. They are addicting.

I actually bought this book to replace a damaged one. I love reading work by Kim Harrison. Her stories are full of strong females, and mystical lives. You get to see a different side of vampirism...it doesn't have to be bad and/or evil.

For a witch who specializes in charms, Rachel Morgan has some lousy luck. She leaves her dead-end job, managing to get a contract put out on her lifein the process, and her subsequent attempts to bring down a crooked local bigwig could also cost her everything.

Set in an alternate present where vampires, Weres and pixies live side-by-side with a reduced human population (tomato plague, and yes, you read that right), this book is funny, exciting, and even sexy. If you've ever held a job you can relate to Rachel, the plot and pacing are good, and the secondary characters are interesting in their own rights. I highly recommend it.
