It was the virus in the tomatoes that decimated much of the human race, which led in turn to the Inlanders (the supernatural races) being outed. Now they co-exist with humans and like the mortals, some are good and others are very bad. Rachel, a witch, is one of the supernatural entities that try to do what is right even if she has demons marks from working with them and her souls is black scum. If she dies before it is removed, she will go straight to the place where the demons live.

One morning the powerful demon Newt tries to possess her because he wants something she has. His keeper Minias comes to take him home but he needs Rachel's help. She gives it in return for him wearing her mark which means he has to do a favor for her when she asks for it. The FIB needs her help with the death of three werewolf women. Vampires and weres want the focus, a statue that changes humans into weres. Rachel has it but has no intention of giving it to either side because it would change the balance of power and alter civilization. The master vampire of the city is gunning for her as it was her testimony that put him in jail. When the demon Al flees to earth, he has a score to settle with Rachel and makes a deal with the elf Trent, a criminal mastermind. If she isn't careful, Rachel could be killed by any one of these beings or the two wolf packs who want the statue.

Kim Harrison is one of the best writers of supernatural fantasy with great action-scenes and a fascinating heroine that has a heart of gold an even if her soul is a little dirty because she was forced to deal with demons. The support cast especially Ivy the living vampire, Junx the pixy, and Ceri the elf, add an extra dimension to the storyline as they watch Rachel's back and love her in spite of her stubborn nature.

For a Few Demons More The Hollows Book 5 Kim Harrison 9780060788384 Books Reviews

I have read all the books in this series but will not read any more. The first book in this series was slow to start but the story line was just different enough from other witch /wizard /vampire plots to make me curious. The second and third books were better and I was hoping that Rachel's character and the other main characters would develop and become more well-rounded. However, in this book an important main character is killed in brutal manner for no apparent reason. This character was one of the better characters and could have helped with the development of Rachel's character and believe me Rachel needs all the help she can get. She is in a very self destructive and dangerous relationship with her roommate, Ivy -- which is only slightly redeemable because Rachel wants to save her. Ivy's really needs professional help and Rachel can't decide whether to allow Ivy to bite her and have sex with her (because it is a package deal) but maybe she will just provoke Ivy into biting her instead so it will be an accident, and thus not her fault. I can't see how Rachel can help Ivy when she isn't yet able to help herself. The murdered character, on the other hand, chose Rachel above any others who had a prior claim on his loyalty and affection. Ultimately he chose her over his own life. His death made no sense. I wonder he was killed because whoever he represents in the author's real life ticked her off so badly she decided to kill his character in the book. Or did he have to be removed so that Rachel can be bitten by and have sex with Ivy? Or is this merely the Old Western Rules All lovers of the protagonist must die or otherwise be removed so that they are always "available?" Whatever the reason, the end result is totally off putting and although I am a prodigious reader and can overlook many flaws, this was an absolute deal breaker.
Slipping back into Kim Harrison's world of Rachel and her friends and foes is very comforting. It makes me wish that I could never leave it because once I start reading her books I feel lost and amazed, the real world forgotten and far away in my mind. Each new volume beckons me to indulge in another fantastic adventure where the fights, jokes, puns, some wicked magic and charismatic characters hold me in a trance until the last page is devoured.

The fifth book of the series has been the book of changes, so much happens from when we last saw Rachel, her solid ground composed of Jenks, Ivy, Kisten, Ceri, David, Glenn and few others is unraveling in all directions. She is torn between her wild romance with Kisten and the lurking desires she's growing for Ivy, not sure whether she wants to be friends or more, debating with herself while fighting werewolves, pissed of demons, alluring vampires, tricky elfs, hilarious pixes and not so nice witches and all sorts of enigmatic creatures with agendas of their own. With power struggles happening between those at the top of the food chain, Rachel is caught in the middle with everything she holds dear at stake. I can't say any more, these books can be easily spoiled; something that I knew was going to happen did in deed happen and it didn't lessen the shock but it took something away form me. So for those who aren't up to this book, start from the beginning and don't go peaking at spoilers.

The ending was so intense that I was torn between being afraid of reading through it and not wanting to see how the whole demon tangled up mess would resolve and unable to wait for the sixth book to arrive in the mail so I can rip the box open and pounce on it. Each character has been so lovingly written and so incredible real that any pain they went through I felt as well. Reading their stories and following their dreams, victories and fights always made me feel close to them, as if they were part of my own family. I am embarrassed to say but by page 444 tears were bubbling in my eyes, and I was a sobbing mess, I can't remember the last time a book made me cry! I can honestly say that this is my favorite series of all the books I have ever read, I can't imagine anything being warmer and filled with more glow, magic and real heart than this gem of a series. Utter perfection in my opinion and the more the better.
