Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes. While I was iffy on Magic Bites, I loved Magic Burns. 
 We get a nice explanation of why the tech and magic shifts happen, something I don't remember reading in the first book. Curran is slightly less douchey and seems to be growing on me a bit. Kate's case was interesting and didn't have a clear cut, obvious villain or answer. I wasn't keen on her taking in Julie, or the weird relationship with Julie and Red, but at least Kate's not going to keep her forever. I am not a fan of children tagalongs in adult-centric novels. 
 So, yeah, good stuff. Kate's not waving a gun in people's faces to show how tough she is, she's not being stupid, and she's not a big bag of instalove (hormones, yes, but it doesn't dominate the pages the way it does in some novels). Definitely reading the next one.
