Magic Dreams (Kate Daniels #4.5)
Alpha Pack leader Jim Shrapshire has always been the strong, silent type. But something has come over him--a magic force currently residing in one of the Pack's headquarters. Were-tigress Dali Harimau has always wished she could get Jim's attention--but now he needs her help.
Stricken with a magic-sickness, Jim needs Dali's flair for magic. And to save him, she must challenge a powerful, dark being to a battle of wits.

Ever since I read Magic Steals a little while back, I'd been wanting to find out how Dali and Jim originally got together!Dali is just one of those characters that have been in the background of the Kate Daniels books, but I've always secretly wished played a much larger role.And Jim is...well, he's Jim. Curran's best friend, Kate's old partner, and the badass of the Pride. Basically, there's some hinky black magic that nearly kills Jim and Dali is the only one qualified to help. Spoilery thing,
Ilona Andrews is one of those authors where they could publish their grocery list and it would be amazing. They are one of my very favorites for urban fantasy and fantasy and Ive been slowly working my way through the KD world novellas to help cope with the fact that Kate is over and Julie is not yet ready to come into the world (SOMEDAY!!! Oh how I ship my Julie and Derek!) This could aptly be called White Tiger and the Search for the Golden Snail or awesome nerd girls kick butt! What a fun
This is one novella that I didn't quite enjoy as much the second time around. That being said I loved the fact that Jim had to be so careful with how he approached things with Dali and, if nothing else, this is worth reading just for the final chapter where it all comes together.
June 2016 Re-read: As much as I like Jim in this book, and Dali (more than I have previously anyway), I just .... like them less and less with each re-read. The story is good and still worthy. I'm just not sure I even really like or respect the characters anymore.4.5 StarsWhat I really enjoy about these novellas that focus on other characters in the Kate Daniels' world is that we get to see things from a new point-of-view. It becomes obvious that Kate isn't always the most ... reliable narrator.
I was not clamoring for more of Jim and Dali when I read the regular books but I am so glad they got their own novella. I absolutely loved them!!! I also like the introduction of a new angle on the magic world. Just like real life is full of different cultures/myths/religions the Andrews are bringing that same richness into this world. I would love to see even more of this in the series. It was so interesting.
