Summary

From New York Times best-selling author, Kim Harrison, comes the second book in her brilliant Hollows series; packed with the perfect balance of wry humour and thrilling action, which will delight fans of thrillers and fantasy alike.

During the last few months, former bounty-hunter Rachel Morgan has been rather busy.

Having escaped relatively unscathed from her corrupt former employers, she's not only acquired a vampiric room-mate called Ivy, faced werewolf assassins and battled shape-shifting demons, but has also found the time to pick up a boyfriend (even if he is only human) and open her very own runner agency.

But cohabiting with a vampire, however reformed, has its dangers. Ivy's evil vampire ex-boyfriend has decided that he wants her back, and views Rachel as a tasty side-dish. To make matters worse, Rachel's demon mark is the ultimate vamp-aphrodisiac; one that works both ways.

The stakes are high, and if Rachel is to save herself and her room mate she must challenge the master vampire and confront the dark secrets she's kept hidden even from herself.

Never lets you down

The narrator is great and really brings the book to life. The adventures of Rachel Morgan just get better.

Enjoyable

Lacks the pace and flow of the first book, but I still enjoyed it. I’m re-listening to this series as I’ve not heard it for 5 years, and I’m glad to say I still enjoy it and it wasn’t just a rose tinted memory. The series continues to keep my interest in all the future books.

I really like the Kate Daniel’s series and Hidden Legacy series by Ilona Andrews, Jane Yellowrock series by Faith Hunter, The Others series by Anne Bishop, Imp series by Debra Dunbar, and Crossbreed series by Dannika Dark. If you like those, you’ll probably enjoy this series too. They’re not all quite the same feel as each other, but all enjoyable in their own ways.

Better than the 1st Book!

What did you like most about Rachel Morgan: The Hollows (2) - The Good, The Bad, and The Undead?

It's way better than the first book. The author writes a lot less about how people look and the way their eyes are, which leaves more time for the actual story. It is much easier to follow what's happening and you can even understand some of the characters. Harrison comes up with new challenges and twists for Rachel Morgan which keeps the story somewhat interesting, even though her main enemy is still the same.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

The narrator wasn't very successful at getting different emotions across and making it easy to follow the different characters, but she made it easy to follow the story and listen to the audiobook.

Almost very good

Having seen potential in the first book I gave this a go and its almost there but there are some annoyances
The basic story is very good and holds interest
The characters are quite likeable and I think the narration is good, it seemed better than the first book for me.
Just 2 complaints
The lead character Rachel can be very annoying making clearly bad decisions for no logical reason
some of the twists dont really make sense. Hard to be specific without giving away the plot.

If you thought the first book was OK this is certainly worth a listen

fab. book

This is an amazing continuation to what is going to be a fantastic series. Well written and amazingly well narrated. I loved learning more about Rachel, her life and her friends/family. The plot had me gripped from the start and I'm really glad that I listened to it as it meant that I was immersed in the story even more than I would have done had I read it in eBook format.

Didn't capture me like the first.

Simply put this book dragged for me. I like the characters , it's why I finished but the story was boring and plodded along.

Great story but the reading is all wrong

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

In written format yes, very much so. But not this reading.

What did you like best about this story?

The tension between Ivy The Vamp and Rachael. The lack of resolution and the ongoing difficulties bring an interesting dimension.

What didn’t you like about Marguerite Gavin’s performance?

pauses & emphasis in wrong places. Her ivy voice was just appalling though Jenks wasn't much better. That said, I didn't to the end of chapter 2 so i suppose she might have got better later.

Did Rachel Morgan: The Hollows (2) - The Good, The Bad, and The Undead inspire you to do anything?

The written versino inspired me to buy the Audible version - but those inspired me to return them
