Don't Read Kate Daniels WRONG! | A Questionable Client Review


Listen Later

Ready for more Kate Daniels? You might think the next stop after Magic Bites is Book Two, but I’d actually recommend taking a quick detour first.


In this spoiler-lite review, I’m discussing A Questionable Client, Ilona Andrews’ prequel story to the Kate Daniels series. Although it was published several books after Magic Bites, I think it’s the perfect companion piece to read immediately after Book One. It expands the world, gives us more time with Kate, the Mercenary Guild, and Saiman, delivers an entertaining mystery, and adds meaningful context without spoiling what’s to come.


In this review, we’ll cover:


* Publication details and where this story fits in the series

* Why I chose to read it now

* A spoiler-lite review

* Eight reasons you might enjoy it

* Three reasons it may not be for you

* My final thoughts on whether it’s worth your time


If you’re reading through the Kate Daniels series for the first time — or considering starting it — I hope this review helps you decide when to fit this excellent little adventure into your journey.


Have you read A Questionable Client? Do you agree it’s best read immediately after Magic Bites, or do you prefer publication order? Let me know in the comments!
