A Book in Review: The Magical Christmas Cat

The Magical Christmas Cat By: Lora Leigh, Erin McCarthy, Nalini Singh and Linda Winstead Jones
Fiction: paranormal romance, science fiction
Book Count: 60

This book is a collection of four short stories that are to be on cats and Christmas. So first I would like to comment on how the stories work with the title. First, the definition of magic is very loose in half the stories. It is more a magic of love magic in most of them. All of the stories take place at Christmas, but for some they are a Christmas story like "It's a Wonderful Life" is one. There as scenes that denote that it is Christmas, but its not really important to the story. All the stories have cats. Only one is a real house cat. Half are main characters that are cat human hybrids. One is a demon in a cat form. Besides the poorly named title and cover art, I liked the book. The stories were interesting. And I must remember to write these things quicker after reading a book, as I had all sorts of things I was going to say, but forget.
