Bestselling author Kim Harrison returns with a new supernatural adventure that fans of Laurell K. Hamilton and Charlaine Harris won''t want to miss. Some days, you just can''t win. Witch and former bounty hunter Rachel Morgan''s managed to escape her corrupt company, survive living with a vampire, start her own runner service, and face down a vampire master. But her vampire roommate Ivy is off the wagon, her human boyfriend Nick is out of town indefinitely and doesn''t sound like he''s coming back while the far-too-seductive vampire Kisten is looking way too tempting, and there''s a turf war erupting in Cincinnati''s underworld. And there''s a greater evil still. To put the vampire master behind bars and save her family, Rachel made a desperate bargain and now there''s hell to pay—literally. For if Rachel cannot stop him, the archdemon Algaliarept will pull her into the sorcerous ever-after to forfeit her soul as his slave. Forever. A Fistful of Charms The evil night things that prowl Cincinnati despise witch and bounty hunter Rachel Morgan. Her new reputation for the dark arts is turning human and undead heads alike with the intent to possess, bed, and kill her — not necessarily in that order. Now a mortal lover who abandoned Rachel has returned, haunted by his secret past. And there are those who covet what Nick possesses — savage beasts willing to destroy the Hollows and everyone in it if necessary. Forced to keep a low profile or eternally suffer the wrath of a vengeful demon, Rachel must nevertheless act quickly. For the pack is gathering for the first time in millennia to ravage and to rule. And suddenly more than Rachel''s soul is at stake.

Il n’y a pas à Cincinnati de sorcières plus sexy, dure à cuire et tarée que Rachel Morgan. La chasseuse de primes a déjà mis en péril à maintes reprises sa vie amoureuse, et même son âme, pour expédier les créatures de la nuit derrière les barreaux. Mais dans le milieu la guerre fait rage, et il est temps pour Rachel de prendre parti. D’autant qu’elle a largement contribué à mettre l’ex-parrain de la ville sous les verrous... non sans avoir passé un accord avec un puissant démon. Accord qui pourrait lui coûter une éternité de souffrances ! Or, justement, son sombre « maître » vient chercher sa récompense...

Supernatural superhero Rachel Morgan must counter a strange magic that could spell civil war for the Hollows in this sexy and bewitching urban fantasy adventure in acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Kim Harrison''s Hollows series. Witch and day-walking demon Rachel Morgan has managed to save the demonic ever after from shrinking, but at a high cost. Now, strange magic is attacking Cincinnati and the Hollows, causing spells to backfire or go horribly wrong, and the truce between the races, between Inderlander and human, is shattering. Rachel must stop this dark necromancy before the undead vampire masters who keep the rest of the undead under control are lost and all-out supernatural war breaks out. Rachel knows of only weapon to ensure the peace: ancient elven wild magic, which carries its own perils. And no one know better than Rachel that no good deed goes unpunished . . .

Die ultimative Story-Sammlung zur SPIEGEL-Bestsellerserie Wohin sind Trent und Jenks auf ihrer Elfenqueste in ''Blutdämon'' verschwunden? Nun wird das Rätsel, das Tausende von Fans beschäftigt, endlich gelöst, und die beiden dürfen ein fantastisches Abenteuer bestreiten. Doch das ist nur eine von elf, zum Teil bereits erschienenen Geschichten, in denen Kim Harrison erzählt, was Rachel, Ivy, Jenks und Co. erleben, wenn sie nicht gerade gemeinsam Fälle lösen. Ausserdem entführen uns vier brandneue Storys in Welten jenseits von Rachel Morgan und machen Blutseele zu einem Muss für jeden Fantasy-Fan. Kim Harrison, geboren im Mittleren Westen der USA, wurde schon des Öfteren als Hexe bezeichnet, ist aber - soweit sie sich erinnern kann - noch nie einem Vampir begegnet. Sie hegt eine Vorliebe für Friedhöfe, Midnight Jazz und schwarze Kleidung und ist bei Neumond nicht auffindbar. Mit ihren RACHEL-MORGAN-Romanen hat sie einen internationalen Bestseller gelandet.

In tutta Cincinnati non c’è una strega più forte, sexy e problematica di Rachel Morgan, la cacciatrice di taglie. Consegnare alla giustizia le creature della notte è il suo principale obiettivo. Per conseguirlo ha già messo a repentaglio l’amore della sua vita e la sua stessa anima. Ma per quanto ancora sarà disposta a farlo? Poi c’è il suo ragazzo da tenere a bada, e quel suo maledetto vizio di bere sangue umano. Per non parlare del terribile segreto che deve difendere con tutte le forze, e di un nuovo e irresistibile pretendente, anche lui un vampiro. Ma il destino ha in serbo per lei qualcosa di ancora più arduo: deve schierarsi in una guerra che sta sovvertendo le regole della malavita cittadina. E non può tirarsi indietro, anche perché è stata proprio lei a far fuori il vampiro che finora aveva gestito tutti i giochi criminali. In questa nuova avventura sarà costretta a scendere a patti con un demone potentissimo, ma dovrà muoversi con destrezza, perché il suo oscuro signore sta per arrivare e se lui dovesse fallire, ad attenderla ci sarebbe un’eternità fatta di dolore, tormento e umiliazioni.

La cacciatrice di taglie Rachel Morgan è alle prese con una nuova avventura: questa volta è chiamata a salvare il suo ex fidanzato Nick che, per motivi a lei oscuri, è stato rinchiuso in una prigione nascosta, a centinaia di chilometri da casa... Quella che inizialmente sembra una semplice missione di salvataggio, si rivela ben presto un’impresa di un’importanza assoluta: Rachel infatti s’imbatte in un’orda di licantropi disposti a tutto pur di impossessarsi di una misteriosa statuetta che può decidere le sorti del mondo. Facendo ricorso alla magia nera e con l’aiuto di un Jenks ‘diverso’ dal solito, Rachel si lancia nell’impresa di salvare il ragazzo dalla trappola in cui è finito, ma le insidie sono sempre dietro l’angolo e la situazione va rapidamente fuori controllo. Riuscirà l’affascinante Rachel a salvare il giovane e a sventare una catastrofe di portata mondiale, superando molteplici ostacoli e le attenzioni indesiderate dei suoi nemici? Il quarto episodio della serie di Rachel Morgan, la cacciatrice di taglie più sexy e affascinante di tutta Cincinnati.

Quarant’anni fa, un virus geneticamente modificato ha sterminato la popolazione mondiale e ha portato alla luce creature da sogno e da incubo che erano rimaste nascoste...Rachel Morgan è una strega e lavora per la Inderland Runner Services, che si occupa della caccia ai criminali nella moderna Cincinnati. Abituata a confrontarsi con vampiri, streghe e lupi mannari assassini, a causa degli ultimi compiti che le sono stati assegnati – l’arresto di folletti evasori fiscali e di studenti che utilizzano la magia per rubare connessioni via cavo – ha deciso di lasciare il lavoro per aprire un’agenzia tutta sua. Ma nessuno può abbandonare impunemente la Inderland Runner Services senza rischiare la propria vita. Inizia così per Rachel Morgan una lotta contro il tempo e una fuga continua, in compagnia di un''amica vampira e di un folletto coraggioso, per cercare di fermare l''ordine di cattura che pende sulla sua testa. Il romanzo d’esordio di Kim Harrison, primo della serie dedicata a Rachel Morgan.

Secondo volume della serie con protagonista la strega Rachel Morgan, ex agente della Inderland Runner Services che ha deciso di lavorare per proprio conto come cacciatrice di taglie messe su demoni e vampiri criminali. Rachel continua a vivere con la sua amica Ivy – un vampiro – in un’antica chiesa nel cui giardino abita il suo aiutante, il folletto Jenks. Potrebbe essere una situazione normale, se non fosse per il continuo desiderio che Ivy ha di nutrirsi delle altre persone, per la lingua tagliente che Jenks non sa tenere freno e per l’incredibile abilità che Rachel ha di infilarsi sempre in situazioni al limite del mortale. Stavolta tutto inizia quando accetta di indagare su una serie di omicidi che sta gettando scompiglio in nella comunità di streghe della città. Il suo compito è quello di fingersi una studentessa del college, in modo da poter spiare un professore sul quale ricadono molti sospetti. Rachel però è convinta di star osservando la persona sbagliata, e che Trent Kalamack, colui che l’aveva costretta a combattere in una lotta fra ratti quando era trasformata in un visone, sia il vero colpevole, e tenterà di dimostrare la sua tesi a costo di correre pericoli inimmaginabili.

Auch in ihrem zwölften Fall hat Rachel Morgan wieder einiges zu tun, denn in Cincinnati häufen sich merkwürdige Ereignisse: Unbekannte magische Kräfte sind in der Stadt zu spüren, Zaubersprüche gehen plötzlich schief, und das Misstrauen zwischen Inderlandern und Menschen wächst mit jedem Tag. Als sich die mächtigen Vampirmeister Cincinnatis in den Konflikt einmischen, droht endgültig Bürgerkrieg in den Straßen auszubrechen. Rachel bleibt nur eine Möglichkeit, das Schlimmste zu verhindern: Sie muss die uralte Magie der Elfen entfesseln.

Witch-turned-daywalking-demon Rachel Morgan needs to save the demonic realm of the Ever After in the eleventh entry in the New York Times bestselling Hollows series from supernatural adventure master Kim Harrison.

For a limited time and a special price, catch up with Rachel Morgan in Kim Harrison''s bestselling Hollows series, plus receive a sneak peek at the next book in the series, Ever After! In A Fistful of Charms, the evil night things that prowl Cincinnati despise witch and bounty hunter Rachel Morgan. Her new reputation for the dark arts is turning human and undead heads alike with the intent to possess, bed, and kill her—not necessarily in that order. Now a mortal lover who abandoned Rachel has returned, haunted by his secret past. And there are those who covet what Nick possesses—savage beasts willing to destroy the Hollows and everyone in it if necessary. Forced to keep a low profile or eternally suffer the wrath of a vengeful demon, Rachel must nevertheless act quickly. For the pack is gathering for the first time in millennia to ravage and to rule. And suddenly more than Rachel''s soul is at stake.

You can’t tell the story of how it all began for supernatural cops Ivy Tamwood and Rachel Morgan without telling how it all nearly ended. The fiery living vampire and erstwhile earth witch never asked to be paired up in the first place. And having to work Inderland Security’s crummiest beat—busting two-bit paranormal street punks—sure didn’t sweeten the deal. But when it counts, Ivy and Rachel always have each other’s backs. They’d better—because someone just hung targets on both of them. It doesn’t take a hotshot homicide detective to know that nearly getting flattened by a falling gargoyle or impaled by a lead pipe aren’t on-the-job accidents. But it doesn’t seem possible that the class of crooks Ivy and Rachel routinely collar could kill anything but brain cells. So who put Cincinnati’s tough and tender twosome on their “to do in” list? Is Ivy’s vampire master, the powerful and seductive Piscary, jealous of her growing bloodlust (and just plain lust) for Rachel? Or have forces unknown—living or undead—made the partners prey in a deadly witch (and vampire) hunt? Before this case is cracked, Ivy and Rachel will face down vicious dogs, speeding locomotives, rogue bloodsuckers, and their own dark desires; spells will be cast and blood will be spilled; and Kim Harrison’s hair-raising, heart-racing, dark urban world of magic and monsters will leap howling from the pages of her second electrifying, full-color graphic novel.

A true queen of urban fantasy—the New York Times bestselling author of the wildly popular series featuring bounty hunter witch-turned-daywalking demon Rachel Morgan—the phenomenal Kim Harrison explores the Hollows more deeply than ever before in Into the Woods, her first collection of short stories. Rachel is here, as are Jenks the pixie, elven tycoon Trent Kalamack, and an unholy host of vampires, demons, shapeshifters, ghosts, and other assorted supernatural beings, friends and foes. Into the Woods combines original work, including a new Hollows novella, as well as all of Kim Harrison’s previously published short fiction gathered together in one volume for the very first time. No true Hollows aficionado will want to pass this up—and readers of Laurell K. Hamilton, Kelley Armstrong, Patricia Briggs, and Jim Butcher; fans of Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight novels and of paranormal romance superstars Christine Feehan and Sherrilyn Kenyon, will be likewise enchanted.

Ritually murdered corpses are appearing across Cincinnati, terrifying amalgams of human and other. Pulled in by the FIB to help investigate, former witch-turned-day-walking demon Rachel Morgan soon realizes a horrifying truth: others want to create their own demons, and to do so they need her blood. She''s faced vampires, witches, werewolves, demons, and more—but this time Rachel''s toughest challenge might be humanity itself.

Das Warten hat ein Ende – Rachel Morgan ist zurück! Rachel Morgan ist etwas ganz Besonderes: Nicht nur, dass sie jung und sexy und die vermutlich erfolgreichste Erdhexe Cincinnatis ist, sie ist auch der einzige Dämon weltweit, der das Tageslicht verträgt. Doch als überall in der Stadt grauenhaft verstümmelte Leichen auftauchen und das FBI Rachel um Hilfe bittet, muss sie feststellen, dass es manchmal gar nicht so toll ist, etwas Besonderes zu sein. Denn was sie herausfindet, stellt all ihre bisherigen Abenteuer in den Schatten: Jemand versucht Dämonen zu züchten! Dämonen, die so sind wie Rachel. Und dazu braucht dieser Jemand Rachels Blut ...

From bestselling author Kim Harrison comes this original short story (to be featured in her anthology Into the Woods, October 2012) where things are most definitely not as they seem. A pet shop employee’s innocent date with a customer quickly turns disturbing rather than delightful. She and her family hold a centuries-old secret, and they want him to stay with them forever . . .

Rachel Morgans erster Fall kostet sie beinahe Kopf und Kragen: Kaum hat sie sich gemeinsam mit der Vampirin Ivy und dem vorlauten Pixie Jenks als Kopfgeldjägerin selbstständig gemacht, hat sie auch schon ein Killerkommando am Hals. Nur ein Mann kann ihr jetzt noch helfen, doch der ist dummerweise ihr Todfeind ...

Ihr dritter Fall verlangt Rachel Morgan alles ab: Ein Dämon ist hinter ihrer Seele her, ein Werwolf möchte mit ihr ein Rudel gründen und der mächtigste Drogenboss Cincinnatis droht, in ihrer Heimatstadt einen Bürgerkrieg anzuzetteln. All das wäre noch zu ertragen, würde ihr nicht auch noch ein sexy Vampir den Schlaf rauben ...

Spannend und sexy – die Erfolgsserie geht weiter! Ihr Name: Rachel Morgan. Ihr Job: Kopfgeldjägerin. Ihre Aufgabe: auf den Straßen von Cincinnati Vampire, Hexen und andere finstere Kreaturen zu jagen. Ihr Problem: Sie selbst hat eine düstere Vergangenheit ... Mit ihrer Rachel-Morgan-Serie schreibt Kim Harrison Mystery-Thriller der neuen Generation!

A Rachel Morgan, intrépida bruja y cazarrecompensas, la vida le ha reservado una buena ración de golpes, y se ha visto obligada a rebasar límites que había jurado no traspasar jamás. Sin embargo, el asesinato de su novio le dejó una herida más profunda de lo que Rachel había podido imaginar, y a partir de ahora no descansará hasta que las causas de su muerte sean aclaradas? y pueda vengarlo. Cueste lo que cueste. No obstante, el camino al infierno está sembrado de buenas intenciones y, cuando un nuevo depredador se posiciona en lo más alto de la cadena alimentaria, el pasado de Rachel regresa para poseerla? literalmente.

A pesar de salir con un vampiro y vivir con otro, Rachel Morgan, una cazarrecompensas independiente y sin miedo, y una bruja imprudente, siempre se las ha arreglado para adelantarse a los problemas... hasta ahora.Un desalmado asesino en serie acecha los Hollows y nadie que viva en Cincinnati o en sus alrededores (humano, no humano o no muerto) está a salvo.Un antiguo objeto puede ser la clave para detener al asesino: una misteriosa reliquia que ahora está en manos de Rachel. Pero revelarlo podría hacer estallar una batalla a muerte entre el amplio abanico de razas sobrenaturales que conviven en la ciudad.

Rachel Morgan ya ha puesto en serio peligro su vida amorosa y su alma a través de sus esfuerzos por llevar a las criaturas de la noche criminales ante la justicia. Entre caza y caza, mantiene las manos ocupadas desviando las atenciones de su compañera bebedora de sangre, protegiendo un mortal secreto de su pasado y resistiendo los envites de un nuevo y tórrido pretendiente vampiro. Rachel también debe elegir un bando en la guerra que arde en el inframundo de la ciudad, debido a que ayudó a destronar a su último jerarca vampiro; y para ello hizo un pacto con un poderoso demonio que pudo costarle una eternidad de dolor, tormento y degradación.

Para salvar la vida de sus amigos, Rachel ha cometido un error fatal: traficar con la magia demoníaca, algo totalmente prohibido. Pero ahora va a tener que pagar caros sus pecados.Mientras intenta averiguar toda la verdad sobre un espeluznante crimen, una amenaza aún mayor se cierne sobre ella, y es que un antiguo enemigo, el demonio Algaliarept, en su afán por reclamarla, está arrasando con todo lo que se le pone por delante. Al mismo tiempo, la revelación de un espantoso secreto familiar la obligará a replantearse toda su vida. Y si aspira a librarse de la marca demoníaca que la atenaza, antes tendrá que viajar al inframundo en busca de un antiguo saber perdido mucho tiempo atrás.

Lo más inteligente sería que la cazarrecompensas Rachel Morgan tratase de no dejarse ver por un tiempo, porque la reputación que de pronto se ha labrado en el mundo de las artes oscuras ha llamado la atención de criaturas de la noche que quieren acabar con ella de un modo u otro. Sin embargo, Rachel debe exponerse una vez más: su ex novio, Nick, ha robado un valiosísimo artefacto que unas bestias salvajes quieren adquirir a cualquier precio. Y, por tentadora que resulte la idea de Nick hecho pedazos, Rachel se siente obligada a tratar de rescatarlo. Pero hay otras fuerzas oscuras que también ansían la reliquia de Nick; tanto, que están dispuestos a destruir la ciudad y a todos sus habitantes para conseguir su poder.
