Ebook About Previously published; newly refreshed by the authorI like my women like I like my whiskey: more than is good for me.Name’s Kane, Kate Kane. I’m a paranormal private investigator, which is like a normal private investigator except—and stop me if you’re having trouble following this—more paranormal. This business comes with a few basic rules: don’t start drinking before noon, don’t get your partner killed, don’t sleep with the woman who killed him.Last year I broke all of them.The only rule I didn’t break was the one that said don’t work for vampires. But then a dead werewolf showed up outside the Soho shag palace of Julian Saint-Germain—a bloodsucking flibbertigibbet who’s spent the last eight centuries presiding over an ever-growing empire of booze, sex and hemoglobin. I shouldn’t have taken the job. The last thing I needed was to get caught in a supernatural smackdown between a werewolf pack and a vampire prince. Even if the vampire prince was dangerously my type. But what can I say? I was broke, I’m a sucker for a pretty face and I gave up on making good decisions a long time ago.This book is approximately 77,500 wordsBook Iron & Velvet (Kate Kane, Paranormal Investigator Book 1) Review :
Awww! This re-read made me so happy! 😊 I love this book & I seriously love everything about Kate Kane.❤So, having failed to review this the first time, I thought I'd try that now.I'm so glad this book is available again for everyone who hasn't already read it to discover & enjoy! I read it the first time back in early 2014, and I loved it then, but I think I actually love it even more this time around! Re-reading this now has been like falling in love all over again! ❤If you haven't read it yet, Iron & Velvet is the first book of a series; originally published in 2013, it's just been re-released by a new publisher, after some light "refreshing" by the author (the author's note says there are no changes to characters or events, just rephrasing of a few lines). This is urban fantasy with a dash of detective noir and strong shots of lesbian romance. It’s worth pointing out that queerness is kind of wonderfully default in this book, with the majority of important characters being queer and/or women.One of the things I’ve always loved most about these books is how funny they are. I spent quite a lot of time laughing, in both readings of this story. And Kate herself is a delight; this kind of wise-cracking, self-deprecating hot mess with a tough(ish) attitude, a black fedora, & a secret marshmallow heart. I also really love how she's all-in, in a fight, even one where she's woefully out-matched and has no idea what she’s doing; Alexis Hall writes such vividly choreographed action scenes, so it’s very satisfying "watching" Kate in battle mode. But I love her compassionate heart even more, and there’s a wonderful little scene involving, of all things, the souls of zombie nuns, where that comes into play; I found it genuinely moving & it kinda made me want to hug her.Also, re-reads are always interesting: How things strike you differently than on your first read, or you notice things you missed, or remember things you didn't know you forgot! And yes, I did read the revised version, but I checked and it's not about that. It's just the difference in perspective that time makes.Like, I had this impression the "detective noir" element was more pronounced in my first read, but this time I barely noticed it. Kate is no hard-boiled lesbian Sam Spade. There are just fondly humorous hints of homage to that genre (and others) scattered about, and that’s what it’s always been. I honestly wonder if my original impression was a kind of confirmation bias, from the influence of the original cover art, which I adored, and was very noiresque. The new cover art is also beautiful, I should add!Also, I thought Kate was awesome & hilarious the first time, but I was so struck this time by how endearing she is too. How did I not notice that before?! 👀 Or did I just forget? And also, how adorable she & Julian are together at times. Not just flirty & funny & sexy & kinda dashingly romantic. Like, there's this scene in Chapter 14, where at one point the words "snuggly little ferret" are employed? The cuteness man, seriously off the charts! 😍And, last time around I totally failed to pick up on an amusing little Easter egg tucked into a scene early in Chapter 3. Just, right there, plain as day. This time, having re-watched a certain Hugh Grant movie again recently, I ... still almost missed it again(!), at first thinking it's familiarity was from my previous read. Until a certain scene popped into my head, and I was all: "Hey! Wait a minute..." It gave me a good cackle!Another thing I forgot about were the occasional swathes of beautiful writing. I mean, it's Alexis Hall, so no surprise, right? But looking back on this book I've tended to think of it more in terms of funny & adventurous, so the beauty kind of slipped my mind. But there are some really lovely passages, including one from Chapter 4 where Kate is meeting with a former flame, momentarily caught up in thoughts of their past. And it just struck me as so ... not only visually gorgeous but, so poignant, looking back a time at the beginning of a relationship after it’s ended, the beginning of knowing someone, loving them, understanding how beautiful they are, how beautiful the world is in that moment, but seeing it through the filter of memory, knowing its fragility. It honestly made me tear up. It's probably too long to quote, but I'm going to anyway, it's too beautiful not to:‘It must have something to do with her magic, and I’ve never worked out whether it’s deliberate or not, but Nimue slips out of my memory like mist. It’s only when I see her again that it all comes flooding back, a rush of tangled images. Burying my hands in her hair, kisses that taste of cold mornings and deep midnights. Meeting all over London. The glittering terraces of Kensington, the muddled suburbs of Uxbridge, the concrete temple of a multi-storey car park in Peckham, the motley patchwork of stalls at Portobello Market. The city through Nimue’s eyes.The night she took me to the Eye, the barriers standing open for her, the lights coming on one by one, blue and gold and silver. Slowly, silently, the wheel beginning to turn, carrying us into a sky so dark and full of stars, like a reflection of the city shining below. That was the first time I kissed her. The first time I really understood who she was and the power in her. The city beneath her skin, a living landscape, as beautiful and terrible as the wilds of Faerie. Dawn breaking over a steamed-up capsule high over an oblivious London. The rising sun falling over us like a blanket, painting Nim’s body in shades of burnished copper, and gilding her black hair with fire."Kate?” Nim waved a hand in front of my face. “Earth to Kate?” ’😭 Right?Before I go, just giving a shout out to the tremendous supporting cast of characters in this book (including the bad guys!) I was particularly fond of Ashriel, Elise, & Aeglica Thrice-Risen.Anyway, if you haven't read these books and you're up for some f/f urban fantasy with a twist of noir, you might want to check this out. I think the 2nd book is set to re-release in early December, and then the long wished-for 3rd installment in the series around February 2020! Really looking forward to that one! I've enjoyed this author's work for several years now.I should have known I'd love the mess that is Kate Kane. The mystery is messily intricate, and the cast of characters is, um. Unique. I'm gonna go with unique. :) Nothing is easy but that's the way Kate (usually) likes it. I did not expect to enjoy the sex scenes so much, but they're short and sweet and often funny, and that's a perfect trifecta for me.I'm not sure I understood more than half of the various mechanisms of this series's universe, but I will settle for entertaining.
