Curran is certainly a cliché, but it’s hard to complain about clichés when they are executed with such perfection. I can’t remember the last time I was so attracted to a fictional character––man or woman. Curran is the paradigmatic bad boy with a heart of gold Andrews’s descriptions of this leonine Alpha of Atlanta’s shapeshifter Pack are enough to make any beating heart pick up its pace. This time around, I was excited to learn more about Kate’s primary love interest (or love/hate interest), Curran. The story continues to grow while still delivering the hallmark elements that made the first novel so appealing. The seductive nature of this world and its characters springs from Andrews’s near-perfect balance between novelty and familiarity. After thoroughly enjoying the first two books, my delight continued right up to the final page of the third installment, Magic Strikes. Ilona Andrews’s Kate Daniels series is a gift that keeps on giving.
