Book description
New York Times bestselling author Kim Harrison returns to the Hollows
with the electrifying follow-up to her acclaimed Ever After!
The ever-after, the demonic realm that parallels our own, is shrinking,
and if it disappears, so does all magic. It's up to
witch-turned-daywalking-demon Rachel Morgan to fix the ever-after before
the fragile balance between magic users and humans falls apart.
Of course, there's also the small fact that Rachel is the one who
caused the ley line to rip in the first place, and her life is forfeit
unless she can fix it. Not to mention the most powerful demon in the
ever-after-the soul-eater Ku'Sox Sha-Ku'ru-has vowed to destroy her, and
has kidnapped her friend and her goddaughter as leverage. If Rachel
doesn't give herself up, they will die.
Forced by circumstance, Rachel teams up with elven tycoon Trent
Kalamack-a partnership fraught with dangers of the heart as well as
betrayal of the soul-to return to the ever-after and rescue those she
loves. One world teeters on the brink of interspecies war, the other on
the brink of its very demise-and it's up to Rachel to keep them both
from being destroyed. “Fast-paced and entertaining.” (Publishers
Weekly )
“The pace and tone of A Perfect Blood reflects its protagonist: a
little more cautious, reflective and purposeful, and the book is more
powerful as a result…Harrison provides the strongest and most
self-assured Rachel we've seen yet.” (Miami Herald on A PERFECT BLOOD )
“Harrison's colorful cast of supporting characters keeps the story
moving among the fast-paced action scenes. Longtime fans will obviously
be standing in line for this one. However, readers with any interest in
urban fantasy can easily jump into the story.” (Library Journal on A
PERFECT BLOOD )
“With the end of this popular series coming soon, fans will be savoring
the remaining episodes all the more, and those who have delayed entry
will begin jumping on board.” (Booklist on A PERFECT BLOOD ) Kim
Harrison was born and raised in the upper Midwest. After gaining her
bachelors in the sciences, she moved to South Carolina, where she
remained until recently moving back to Michigan because she missed the
snow. When not at her desk, she's most likely to be found landscaping
her new/old Victorian home, or scouring antique shops to fill it.
