About this listen
Carrie Vaughn's Low Midnight spins out of the Kitty Norville series on the wave of popularity surrounding Kitty's most popular supporting character: Cormac Bennett, a two-minded assassin of the paranormal who specializes in killing lycanthropes. In his first solo adventure, Cormac, struggling with a foreign consciousness trapped inside him, investigates a century-old crime in a Colorado mining town, which could be the key to translating a mysterious coded diary... a tome with secrets that could shatter Kitty's world and all who inhabit it.
With a framing sequence that features Kitty Norville herself, Low Midnight not only pushes the Kitty saga forward but also illuminates Cormac's past and lays the groundwork for Kitty's future.

Together, they solve problems no one else can. They're asked to investigate a mysterious death in the Sierra Nevadas: a man died of hunger -in a cabin that was fully stocked with provisions. The kicker? The cabin is located near Donner Pass, the site of the gruesomely ill-fated Donner Party, where 40 men, women, and children died of exposure and starvation.

On the outside, Dina Demille is the epitome of normal. She runs a quaint Victorian Bed and Breakfast in a small Texas town, owns a Shih Tzu named Beast, and is a perfect neighbor, whose biggest problem should be what to serve her guests for breakfast. But Dina is...different: Her broom is a deadly weapon; her Inn is magic and thinks for itself. Meant to be a lodging for otherworldly visitors, the only permanent guest is a retired Galactic aristocrat who can’t leave the grounds because she’s responsible for the deaths of millions and someone might shoot her on sight.

Despite being trained from birth as a cryptozoologist, she'd rather dance a tango than tangle with a demon, and is spending a year in Manhattan while she pursues her career in professional ballroom dance. Sounds pretty simple, right?

Good addition to the series!
What did you love best about Low Midnight?
The relationship between Cormac and Amelia...its very intriguing...
What was one of the most memorable moments of Low Midnight?
When Cormac and Amelia almost kissed in there meeting place...I was like...DO IT!!! I know its strange...but there great together!!
What does Marguerite Gavin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I like MG....I have listen to her in other books...she is a great narrator....very soothing and believable always!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
really hate this question...moving on...
Any additional comments?
I liked this little addition to the Kitty series...I have always like Cormac's character and am glad we have gotten a peek into his life...I would love a Rick book...and a book from Ben's perspective....this is one of my fave series...and hope there is many more books to come...If you like Kitty's world...this is a must read...I give it a 2 thumbs up and a highly recommend!

Cormac's story!! It was very good. :D
4 stars
This was a very good addition to the Kitty Norville series. This story centers around Cormac (and Amelia, the disembodied spirit that shares Cormac's body) with Kitty and Ben showing up a bit but they aren't in the majority of the story.
In this story, Cormac is working on getting a way to decipher a journal that has some information that will help them all fight against the vampires that are taking part in the "Long Game" (a plan for vamps to take over the world). To get the info he needs, Cormac has to investigate something and this investigation leads him into some encounters with his past. Cormac and Amelia have an interesting time and during their current adventures, we get some more information on the pasts of both Cormac and Amelia.
I enjoyed this story very much. I liked getting the chance to see Cormac in his own story and get more info about both him and Amelia. There's no romance in the story but I was alright with that...Cormac's situation is too difficult for a fast romance to be thrown in for the hell of it. The story was good on it's own but I was especially happy that it did advance the series storyline decently (especially at the very end). The case that Cormac is working in this story gets solved but there is something that's rather significant (but not urgent) that happens at the end...it's not exactly a cliffhanger but it does make me hope that Carrie gets the next book out soon! I'd recommend this to series fans. People that haven't read the series could read this and enjoy it but it would make more sense as part of the series.

Interesting change of pace
This novel focuses on Cormack and Amelia. It does move the Roman story arc along a bit, but what it really does is develop the relationship between the two inhabitants of Cormack's body. Cormack deals with some of his own issues while solving a hundred year old magical murder.

I love this series
Interesting as the story moves on, but told from Cormick's pov. Big cliffhanger ending, but I was captured by the book from the first word to the last.
The narrator, Margurite Gavin is one of my all time favorites. She is the reason I found this series in the first place. No matter what she reads it's brilliant!

Exceptional!
FINALLY! Low Midnight gives readers a peak into the mind of the stoic and mysterious Cormac and his passenger and partner, Amelia.
I find it very interesting that, in a story told first-person, the author has to keep track of what all the other characters are doing and thinking, even though those details don’t come out in the story in a clear, straight-forward way. Vaughn has to know what Cormac is thinking and feeling throughout the whole Kitty series so that his actions and reactions are consistent and believable. But since the story is told from Kitty’s point of view, neither Kitty nor the reader gets to see inside Cormac’s head.
Cormac is such a great character, though — all brooding and stoic, loyal and maybe still a tad in love with Kitty. And when he agrees to let the spirit of a Victorian witch, Amelia, ride sidecar in his brain, he gets even more interesting. What do they talk about? How do they negotiate their separate interests and needs? Just how does that relationship work? Carrie Vaughn knew her readers were all dying to know more about Cormac and Amelia; so, she let us into Cormac’s head for one book.
And it’s a great book! Using various plot devices, Vaughn shows us more about Cormac’s past, his time in prison, and his feelings about Kitty, Ben, and the crazy life all three of them lead. We also learn about Amelia’s past, her love affair with magic, and how she and Cormac interact and communicate with each other. While doing all that, Vaughn ALSO advances the plot of the Kitty series, since this is the penultimate installment and the big resolution is fast approaching.
I also want to mention that I’m SO glad Marguerite Gavin narrated Low Midnight. I wondered if a male narrator might be tapped for this novel; it certainly could have been interesting. But consistency of narrators is SO important in audio books! Gavin’s interpretation of Cormac’s voice *IS* the voice of Cormac in my head, along with the voices of Kitty, Ben, and others. Kudos to whoever made the decision to stay with Gavin for this novel.
I am very impressed with all Vaughn was able to accomplish in Low Midnight, and I enjoyed it immensely. It is definitely one of my favorite books in the series.
