Product Description: From Booklist
In the eighth installment of the Kitty Norville series, Kitty, the alpha werewolf of the Denver pack and host of a radio talk show that examines lives and problems of paranormal people, is summoned to an army base to help with a werewolf problem. The werewolves in question were part of a secret project that infected soldiers with lycanthropy to make them more effective in the war in Afghanistan, but when their alpha was blown to bits the squad imploded. The three remaining members, who have a murderous lack of self control, are facing extermination unless Kitty can teach them the ways of civilized werewolves, while dealing with her own problems revolving around a libel suit and possible wizard. Kitty is an empathetic character and smart as can be in this fast-moving urban fantasy. --Diana Tixier Herald Review:
Given the excellence of Kitty’s House of Horrors, I expected quite a lot more from this one. It was interesting enough to keep me reading but I wasn’t gripped like I was with the last one. Ms. Vaughn had an interesting take on werewolves in the military but the resolution of the difference in Cormac was lame. It’s a solid entry in the Kitty Norville series, but probably best read as a transition book as Book 9, Kitty's Big Trouble (Kitty Norville, Book 9)
, looks really packed. It actually looks like what I was expecting for this one given the name and the hints at war coming in Kitty’s House of Horrors. Sensuality: a few fade to black sex scenes and some kissing.
Rating: 3 stars
