Kitty's authority is put to the test when a mysterious lycanthrope enters the Denver werewolf pack's territory and lures her into a trap.

In the twelfth book of Carrie Vaughn's New York Times bestselling Kitty Norville series, Kitty in the Underworld, Denver adjusts to a new master vampire while Kitty investigates an intruder in her pack's territory. Following the scent of the lycanthrope into the mountains, she is tranquilized and captured, awakening in a defunct silver mine—the perfect cage for a werewolf.

Kitty's captors are a mysterious cult who seek to induct her into their ranks through a ritual they believe will put an end to Dux Bellorum. Even as she struggles to resist joining their cause, they expect Kitty to participate in their plot, willingly or not.

Filled with action, adventure, and the allure of a modern fantasy world, Kitty in the Underworld is an engaging addition to this bestselling urban fantasy series. Perfect for fans of contemporary fantasy and paranormal fiction.

Reviews

“With the Kitty series, Vaughn has demonstrated a knack for believable characters (even if they are werewolves) and mile-a-minute plotting.” —Sunday Camera (Boulder, CO)

“The only urban fantasy world where I want to read every book of the series.” —The Denver Post

“[Vaughn] manages to combine outright thrills with an offbeat sense of humor and then mesh it with Kitty’s dogged determination. The result—entertainment exemplified!” —RT Book Reviews, 4½ stars Top Pick! on Kitty’s Big Trouble

“Vaughn’s trademark sense of humor continues to distinguish this urban fantasy series, and the seamless integration of a variety of paranormal creatures (including vampires, werewolves, and shape-shifters) in the everyday world is entertaining.” —Library Journal on Kitty’s Greatest Hits
