Then she's captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unlikely partnership.

Ever since she was a child, Ivy has been gripped by visions of strange realms just beyond her own. But when her sister goes missing, Ivy discovers the truth is far worse - her hallucinations are real, and her sister is trapped in a parallel realm. And the one person who believes her is the dangerously attractive guy who's bound by an ancient legacy to betray her. Adrian might have turned his back on those who raised him, but that doesn't mean he can change his fate, no matter how strong a pull he feels toward Ivy.

Urgh this was a frustrating read.
What would have made Reckoning better?
I was super grosses out by what these new evil characters do to their prey. Almost to the point of not finishing the book. I was wondering how the victims stayed alive (which was explained much later in the book.)
In most of her books the evil characters are developed better, so you understand what made them this way, these weren't.
Even though Bones is the main character, it was hard for me to place when in his life this took place, before Kat or when he thought she was dead.
What do you think your next listen will be?
I Love Love you Jeaniene & Tavia. This took a dark turn in a bad place . I've started a new series with a Bones and Kat like relationship. It's Charlie and Reyes in "First Grave on the Right" cute funny banter and we'll developed love story. Not as steamy as Kat n Bones, but I have high hopes.
What three words best describe Tavia Gilbert’s voice?
I don't think describing her in just 3 words does her justice. She should read all my books. Amazing range, dramatic, believable, emotionally binding, Earth - shattering... yeah, she rocks!
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Nausea and let down. I expected more.
Any additional comments?
I know it's tough to hear, but it's only because the bar was set so high with her Night Huntress series.

Bones Before Cat!!!
This was a short story about a job Bones did before he appeared in the first book with Cat.
It was enjoyable read and an interesting ending...
If you are a fan of the series then buy this.. Its just the price was too much for less than 2 hours book.

Loved it! Top notch performance!
I love JF, I have all of her books. This was an amazing book telling Halfway to the Grave from Bones’ point of view. Getting into his head gives the whole story such depth. It also gives me another chance to enjoy the Night Huntress series with a fresh twist. The narrator was a perfect choice! I really think he is a nice complement to Tavia Gilbert’s performances. Some reviews say he doesn’t have an English accent but I disagree. The accent is subtle but it’s there. Besides, in several places in this book and in Halfway to the Grave Bones mentions that he’s sounding “more like a yank”. It really works for me.

Proof That Bones Alone Can Carry A Tale
I was uncertain about purchasing this book that was Pre-Cat, but was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. In fact, I think I liked it even better than the Cat and Bones stories. Cat is a bit whiny and annoying sometimes. Bones strutting around New Orleans on the hunt was sexy as hell. I very much enjoyed this prequel. Thank you, Jeaniene!

Not as good as the other books.
I was expecting the lack of romance, but the book was lacking the laughter, cleaverness and sarcasm of the rest of the serie. it is short, sad and did not reveal much about Bones' past or mindset before he meets Cat. I would have prefered to hear/read much more about him, maybe to include Ian and Spade in a bachelor type mindset in new orlean. Them getting in trouble with Marie a few time could have been funny. it was disapointing in comparison with the other books.

3.5 Stars
Reckoning is the prequel for the Night Huntress series. This is a short book, only 1 hour and 50 minutes, about Bones before he even met Cat. He is in New Orleans on a hit man job trying to kill two undead psychopaths who torture and kill people during Marti Gras. This was cool to be able to see a bit of what Bones was like before he met Cat. We also get to see Majestic. This book doesn’t really have anything to do with the ongoing storyline of the series so you can read it at any point in the series. For me, I waited until I completed the whole series to listen to this book. The narration is good. 3.5 stars.
