***NOTE MY REVIEWS OFTEN CONTAIN SPOILERS***Kat is a sixteen year old unknown supernatural being raised by a vampire. She’s been on the run for a long time, but when hunters arrive for Marguerite she’s more than happy to pick up and run again. If it means staying with Marguerite it’s worth it. Only when these hunters catch up to them they know her name, her real name the one she had before she met Marguerite and they’re not after Marguerite, they’re after her. Will she be able to escape them or will the return her to the Edison Group Lab she ran away from with Marguerite in the first place?I gave this story a three star because I guess there’s nothing really wrong to it, it just doesn’t offer much of a story arc. Mostly what the story is, is a chase scene where Edison Group people chase Kat and Marguerite around shooting at them. I mean it does offer the discovery of what Kat is at the end of the story, but other than that there’s really not much to this story and I don’t honestly see the value of it for the series. It also contradicts some of the other things mentioned in the original series like werewolves being a part of Edison Group, since no werewolves actually worked for them in the original series that kind of bothered me. It’s a fast paced, first person story from Kat’s point of view but there’s really not much to it and I don’t really see how it does anything for the series. It’s kind of action intermingled with Kat’s internal monolog of her background and would have served nicely as the first chapter of a novel but as a standalone story, even a short one it fall very short.Most of the characters in this story are nameless background characters. The only semi developed characters are Kat and Marguerite. Considering space they’re decently developed but over all I wouldn’t call them well developed. They’re interesting characters that I’d love to know more about but there’s not enough story here to offer that more I’m looking for.Overall I guess it’s not a bad story, but then again with such a small story arc I can’t really call it a good one either. I don’t know if I’d recommend it to readers, but then again if they have the extra time they might enjoy the five minute read. I guess the decision about whether this is worth reading it really up to you as a reader. KAT se passe avant Hunting Kat, Katiana n'est pas encore devenue un vampire, elle pense qu'elle est werecat et ça fait deux ans qu'elle dort habillée, un sac à dos sous son lit, prête à fuir avec son "ange gardien," Marguerite.Il y des répétitions entre les nouvelles avec les requins et leur 6e sens, et exactement la même phrase pour parler de l'accent de Marguerite.C'est un peu "coupé," rapide dans les explications du comment Kat en est arrivée là et en gros, c'est moins bien que Hunting Kat. C'est plus intéressant quand on cherche à nous embrouiller avec les deux garçons retenus avec Kat...
What do You think about Kat (2000)?
I read this story online a few weeks ago and it made me want to read the Darkest Powers series.
