Kitty and the Midnight Hour


A fun, fast read here. Kitty is a werewolf and late-night DJ for a Denver radio station. As she mentions a little bit about the supernatural from time to time, her show explodes in popularity, and before long she has a nationally-syndicated talk show. Other members of the supernatural community aren't best pleased, of course, especially her Pack and the local vampire family. Werewolves and vampires are portrayed in naturalistic, "low magic" terms, and, while not exactly original, it works well for the story. One original aspect I appreciated was that the "good guys" don't always win, nor do the bad guys receive their comeuppance. There's also enough story threads left unresolved to make it worth seeking out future books in the series.
