Cover Reveal: Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews - Collector's Edition

(Collector's Edition) 
 
Kate Daniels Series #1
 
 
 
What I think: I wasn't going to do a cover reveal for the collector's edition of Magic Bites, but it kept calling to me every time I saw it around the blogosphere. As many of you may know, I tend to not like the covers of the Kate Daniels series. But I have to say, this is a cover I can get use to. Though the model, in my opinion, does not look like how I picture Kate (and she looks too innocent, Kate is rough around the edges), I think the rest is awesome. It fits the story and the color is beautiful. I only wish the rest of the covers could have been like this...but with the old model for Kate.
Summary
When the magic is up, rogue mages cast their spells and monsters appear, while guns refuse to fire and cars fail to start. But then technology returns, and the magic recedes as unpredictably as it arose, leaving all kinds of paranormal problems in its wake.

Kate Daniels is a down-on-her-luck mercenary who makes her living cleaning up these magical problems. But when Kate's guardian is murdered, her quest for justice draws her into a power struggle between two strong factions within Atlanta's magic circles.

The Masters of the Dead, necromancers who can control vampires, and the Pack, a paramilitary clan of shapechangers, blame each other for a series of bizarre killings—and the death of Kate's guardian may be part of the same mystery. Pressured by both sides to find the killer, Kate realizes she's way out of her league—but she wouldn't have it any other way…


The Collector's Edition was realesed in December 2012

    1. LOL. I was shocked too. At least it's something.

      The only thing that sucks is the non-kate model.

    2. YES. Kate needs to be more... liek you said, rough around the edges. The model is VERY pretty, and I just don't think of Kate as pretty, you know? I kind of like that he hair's braided, though. VERY Kate ;D

    3. I don't see her as pretty either. The braided hair was right on though.
