Review: The Hollows Series by Kim Harrison










 Because I read these books so long ago, I decided to do a whole series review.  This series has 12 books so far, and I have yet to read The Undead Pool, although I did start it about a month ago.

The Hollows revolves around a young woman named Rachel Morgan who works as an Inderlander, catching all of the bad paranormal creatures in town.  The series takes place 50 years after an infected tomato begins killing people, and the paranormal creatures had to expose themselves to save humanity.  Now they all live together in peace.

Well, sort of.

Most of the creatures live in The Hollows, the home of vampires, weres, pixies, faeries, witches, and more.  Elves have gone extinct after the disaster, and Rachel Morgan finds herself tied into a crazier mess than she needs to be.  Her not-so-friend Trent is a major drug lord, and Rachel has to find a way to catch him.  As the series progresses, she discovers more about herself, her friends, and the very world she lives in.

This is one of my favorite series of all times.  I love the setting, including the church Rachel and her friends, Ivy the vampire and Jenks the pixie, reside in.  Rachel is a witch, and has an interesting back story with Trent.

This is an adult series and has some mature content when it comes to sex.  Other than that, it is age appropriate for teenagers as well, depending on maturity level.

Dead Witch Walking:  5 stars.
The Good, the Bad, and the Undead:  5 stars.
Every Which Way But Dead:  4 stars.
A Fistful of Charms:  4 stars.
For a Few Demons More:  5 stars.
The Outlaw Demon Wails:  5 stars.
White Witch, Black Curse:  4 stars.
Black Magic Sanction:  5 stars.
Pale Demon:  4 stars.
A Perfect Blood:  5 stars.
Ever After:  5 stars.
