Chalk up another winner from Kate Daniels World. Novellas are notorious for leaving me unsatisfied. NOT THIS ONE! No important details left out, no rushed ending. I didn’t come away from this novella feeling short changed. All the stories I’ve read, that have been written by the duo that call themselves Ilona Andrews, are wonderfully creative. Dialogue has a flow to it that makes the characters come alive. Jim has been a prominent figure in most of the Kate Daniels stories, so it was a happy day for me to read more about him in a story of his own.Jim, as head of Curran’s Security Team, always seems in control of any situation. It was nice to see such a badass show a different side as he worked with Dali to save his life from a lethal magic sickness. Who knew the guy had a sense of humor? Dali brings out the best in him.Dali is charming in her refusal to give in to her quirky disabilities. Some physical such as being almost blind and throwing up at the sight of blood. Not a good thing considering she’s a were-tigress. Some because of personal choices she’s made, like being a vegetarian. Which also doesn’t strike me as being a good thing when it comes to being a were-tigress. Disadvantages aside she turns out to be kickass. Just the magic user Jim needs to help him find a cure.Highly Recommend to anyone 17 and older.
