Hallo Gollum, reading the books you surjested...Very good so far, thanx.
Ah, I have more time now so I'll comment more in depth.
Overall Kate series only scores a 4 out of 5 for me, books 3-4 were some of my favorites along with book 1 Ha ha! The last book killed the series for me, I don't expect main characters to die in less than a paragraph for no reason other than to move the plot along more quickly or because they get in the way of the ending or they simply just end and are no longer mentioned (You know which ones I'm talking about). It felt very rushed with alot of pieces missing or unexplained that just happened, that in hindsight with just a chapter extra here and there and a few extra passages could have made a tighter book and I would have enjoyed it more, it felt - I don't know, somehow unfinished to me or like that cheese with the holes. Maybe the building of a sequel series at the end though hmmm? One can hope.

some very neat maneuvering by Kate to get all of the various pieces in place for the final machinations, some of which I didn't spot at all.

Agreed, some of the endings where very nice and I really did not see some of them coming and some were pure genius. Actually I would have liked a bit more on certain parties as they suddenly became much more interesting than the main 2 characters even Ha ha!
I suppose I'm just picky, I just loved this series so much that the last book was a bit of a let down. But still by far worth a read - I did enjoy them.
