Kate Daniels has never allowed herself the luxury of friends. Her upbringing didn't allow for it. But slowly people have begun to weasel their way into her life and she'll stop at nothing to keep them safe. Even if it requires the possibility of revealing the secret she's spent years hiding while participating in an illegal gladiator-like tournament called the Midnight Games. 
 The third book in Ilona Andrews' urban fantasy series does not disappoint. I love Kate. I love her friends. I love the world Andrews has created. I just love this series. 
 This, ladies and gentlemen, is how you create believable relationships with build up. And this world. It is near perfection. I can't wait to see where this series goes.
