Book Reviews of For a Few Demons More (The Hollows, Book 5)

Book Review: Average
Summary: 2 Stars

This book is a slight redemption over the last one which is horribly written. However, I'm almost giving up on this series. It started out quite promising, but slowly, the melodramatic Rachel wears on my nerves as I complete more books in this series.

The story in this novel starts with some bodies of Were, being discovered, and Rachel was called in to investigate. Or so it seems. Throughout the next chapters, she didn't really do much investigating, as agonizing over her own problems - as usual, demons/ivy. Eventually, she didn't so much as discover the truth, but rather the murderer directly tell her he did it. So in terms of building up the tension to the main story plot - there is none. It just meanders along until the truth hits her in the head.

I have to say also my bias is that I dislike Rachel - the lead character. She has power but doesn't seem to be strong - instead relying on others to rescue her. She is supposed to be a sort ofpolice (runner) but yet doesn't seem to follow the law that you need proof to arrest someone (in all the books, she always goes "Trent is the bad guy! Arrest him!!" while the male characters resignedly reminds her "you need proof"). As a investigator, she doesn't do much investigating.

So all in all, not a great book.

Summary of For a Few Demons More (The Hollows, Book 5)

Despite dating one vampire and living with another, Rachel Morgan has always managed to stay just ahead of trouble . . . until now.

A fiendish serial killer stalks the Hollows, and no one living in or around Cincinnati-human, inhuman, or undead-is safe.

An ancient artifact may be the key to stopping the murderer-a mysterious relic that is now in the hands of Rachel Morgan, fearless independent bounty hunter and reckless witch. But revealing it could ignite a battle to the death among the vast and varied local supernatural races.

Rachel's been lucky so far. But even she can't hide from catastrophe forever.


With her action-packed Hollows series, featuring former bounty hunter--and mistress of the dark arts--Rachel Morgan, Kim Harrison has become one of the hottest authors in the incredibly popular genre of sexy supernaturalism. In her latest Hollows tale, For a Few Demons More, Rachel unleashes all kinds of undead fury on the greater Cincinnati area when she tries to track down a serial killer. To catch up on the Hollows series so far, and to see the music that has inspired the stories, see below.
