A decent read, although admittedly there are certain aspects about Kitty that bug the hell out of me. Shes just a bit to submissive to be an alpha anything.

As far as the story goes, this one dragged a bit. A few spots with some intrigue and action but few and far between. The story line of a vampire controlling a group of were's seems to remind me on one of the anita blake books, but at the moment I can't recall which one.

It ends with what is supposed to be a cliff hanger. But honestly if you can't already guess that either the master vamp and/or her were pack are coming for revenge, there's something wrong. They never leave well enough alone (in any of the series out there). ( )

Another fun read, but I think she was pushing the story line a bit. Several new magical types added & the book ends on a cliff hanger, which I disliked. I don't have the next book, either. ( )

Perfect for : Personal reading, anyone who likes vampire or werewolf stories

In a nutshell: Book 5 of the Kitty Norville series finds Kitty and Ben the alphas of the Denver pack, and working together with Rick, who is now the Vampire Master of the city. It also finds the pair taking their relationship to the next level - marriage - in Vegas!! What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas - right? Well, Kitty agrees to do the first real KNOB televised show from Vegas prior to her marriage. When she and Ben arrive at their hotel, they find that there is a gun show convention complete with silver bullet-toting hunters of the supernatural! Add to that a strange lycanthrope (were-animal) show where the performers try to dazzle Kitty for unknown reasons of their own. Supernatural trouble tends to gravitate toward Kitty, and Vegas is no exception - both Kitty and Ben run into trouble, and make new friends along the way. Another GREAT book in the series!

Extended Review:
Characters: The main characters remain the same: Kitty, Ben, Cormac and Rick. This book also sees the introduction of Dom, the vampire Master of Vegas, Balthasar, the lead of the lycanthrope pack, and Odysseus Grant, a talented magician with supernatural ties of his own.

Story-Line: The story continues, shedding some light on Vegas as only a pair of were-wolves can. Kitty and Ben are there to get hitched, and everything seems to be working against them! They do manage to tie-the-knot, but not without the help of some new friends.

Readability: A fun and easy read.

Overall: Another great book by Carrie Vaughn, continuing the story of Kitty and Ben, which brings a new set of challenges, supernatural problems, and even a few new friends. I loved this book and highly recommend the series to anyone who is a fan of were-wolves, vampires and the supernatural. I also recommend this series to those who want to give this type of genre a try. ( )

The weakest book in the series. It could have been combined with the next one and flowed much better. ( )

Kitty and Ben are planning on getting married by eloping to Vegas. Kitty performs her first live show the same weekend she plans on getting married, the same place a gun show is going on.

Not a whole lot going on in this fifth installment. Maybe we'll see some more action in the next one, but this one was very disappointing for the series.
