Having been reading a lot of vampire books recently with werewolfs as the secondary characters, it was a refreshing change to read a werewolf book with vampires in the secondary role.
In an almost accidental fashion Kitty ends up with a late night talkbalk radio show for the 'supernaturally challenged'. How do you deal with a lover who howls at the moon, I want to become a vampire but my boyfriend doesn't, and so on. But there are forces out there who don't want this other side revealed, and pretty soon Kitty's dealing with attempts on her life, as well as a faith healer who claims he can 'heal those suffering from the life as a supernatural being' and a nosy police officer who's trying to solve a serial murder case.
Kitty is a spunky female dealing with an on-going arguement between her human self and her wolf self. Which is the right path to follow? And how accepting will the human world be of her werewolf side...and of the whole supernatural world in general?
I enjoyed this book - enough to order the second book in the series, but I'll withhold any raving until I've read the follow-up.

I really enjoyed this book and finished it in 2 sittings. It was good to read a book that captured the sheer brutality of Werewolf pack dominance and submissiveness. Its so hard to work your way up in a Werewolf pack - fighting your way up to get a better rank. But this is how things are in the Werewolf kingdom. I also cannot believe Kitty's bad luck as to what happens to her just before she becomes a Werewolf. I would have loved it if she had literally bit Bill's head off and eaten him later as well. This book is first calibre Werewolf Fiction, right up there with Patricia Briggs and Kelley Armstrong. Its so good to see that Kitty finally gains her independence from the pack although the events leading to this are pretty traumatic for her. It is a truly animalistic, gory and majestic battle for survival. I wish she had finished off a few Werewolves at the end of the book - but I suppose it is good enough that she moves away. I also cannot believe the low calibre of men that Kitty has comming into her life - all through out the book. Some parts in the book are also pretty funny - like some of the calls that Kitty gets as a DJ and her enhanced sense and need for smells. I have already bought the next two books in this series!

Sick of lame song requests Kitty starts "The Midnight Hour' on her local radio station helping the supernatural beings with love and life. The story combines sexyness, action and jealously and rolls it into something you cant possibly put down till your finished. After desperate vampires, werewolves and witches across the country begin calling to share their woes, Kitty's new show is a raging success. But when the local vampire coven and Kitty's pack try to stop the show Kitty may have bitten off more than she can chew.

Kitty Norville is a midnight-shift DJ who is supposed to be playing midnight-bluesy sort of music, but instead this werewolf-in-disguise starts asking questions about what people really think concerning vampires and aliens and werewolves, oh my. Her show becomes a hit, so much so that a hitman, werewolf hunter Cormac, comes a huntin’, as do assorted homicidal members of the undead, as well as a few angry werewolves who are a trifle upset that Kitty is bringing their existence out of the closet, or maybe that should be ‘doghouse’. It’s an interesting premise, and Kitty is a very believable character, although it’s TJ you’re going to fall in love with. This is just the pilot book. The sequel, ‘Kitty Goes to Washington’ has more meat, although I didn’t enjoy it as much. Authors Charlaine Harris and L. A. Banks both rave about Vaughn’s series, so if you like their books you’ll probably like these. I have to say, however, that while they may have a similar style to Harris, no way are they in the league of L. A. Banks.

This is a great read if you're into Werewolves. Kitty is a late night radio talk host. She inadvertently begins to give advice to lonely werewolves and other paranormal beings. What starts out as a bit of a joke becomes an instant hit. What the general public don't realise is that the Were's are real and Kitty is one of them. Another great new paranormal, urban fantasy novel. Look forward to the next Kitty book in July!
