Magic Stars

Grey Wolf, Book 1

By: Ilona Andrews

Narrated by: Jeffrey Kafer

From award-winning author Ilona Andrews, an original novella set in the New York Times number-one best-selling Kate Daniels world and featuring fan favorites Derek, Curran, and Kate's very independent ward, Julie.

Scarred, solitary Derek Gaunt has separated from his Pack and is truly a lone wolf. With no family, he answers to no one but is fiercely loyal to a chosen few. So when several of those close to him are murdered, he'll stop at nothing to hunt their killer through the magic-drenched streets of Atlanta.

Never one to be left on the sidelines and equally determined - some might say stubborn - Julie Lennart-Olsen soon joins in his pursuit, and what began as revenge turns into a race to save the city. Their search pits them against powers they never imagined and magic so old, it predates history. It may cost Derek his life, but there are things for which even he would risk everything.

Fantastic Short!

I have to admit that I'm not a huge Julie fan. But in her own books, she's nowhere near as annoying to me!

I really enjoyed this look into Derek and Julie's relationship when they were young.

Interesting

I like Kafer's voice but I kept feeling like the Dragnet theme music was going to break out any moment. I would hope I'd get over it with a full novel. Great story as usual. It's going to be interesting which way Julie ends up choosing.

Read all the short stories!!!

I would recommend reading all of the short stories in the Kate Daniels series. I read the main books first and went back to read the shorts and there is a lot of information and character development that you miss out on because Kate is the main focus. This story really moves Derrick and Julie forward and offers some great insights into where they are now and what they are struggling with. It was a great read.

nice story dull narrator

I liked the story, having read the Kate Daniels series but the narrator reduced the listening experience to manageable instead of enjoyable

I love this Storyworld!

Derrick is one of my favorite characters in Kate Daniel's world....but I desperately hope they choose another narrator for future books. This guy is just hard to listen to. I listened because I love the stories, and I had to know what happened to this character between main series books.
