Kitty Takes a Holiday by Carrie Vaughn – Review
Kitty Takes a Holiday (Kitty Norville, Book 3) by Carrie Vaughn
No TagKitty Takes a Holiday is the third title in the Kitty Norville series, which began with short stories in the present incarnation of Weird Tales, and the novels Kitty and the Midnight Hour (2005), Kitty Goes to Washington (2006). It is followed by Kitty and the Silver Bullet (2008), with Kitty and the Dead Man’s Hand and Kitty Raises Hell in the works. Though it is the third book in a series it stands well alone, and while I would have undoubtedly drawn more out of the book had I read its predecessors, I had no trouble accepting the slightly alternative present-day reality, that of werewolves among us. However, one plot line seems to be left dangling or ignored — seemingly not addressed in the immediate sequel — when an evil entity draws blood from Kitty, she herself states that she has been tainted with an unspeakable evil that cannot but eventually develop within her, notwithstanding the protective amulets she already wears — but perhaps this will be resolved in further books.
