** In the first novel, Daniel Santos, the leader of the mutt uprising, is clearly insane and mentioned to have killed many people, but has his own plans and is willing to stop the killing when he believes he is close to achieving them. Karl Marsten, the other mutt considered as dangerous as him, simply wants territory. Thomas Leblanc, who they recruit to help overthrow the Pack and see as subservient to them, is a serial killer who targets women who only joined because he enjoys killing, and is willing to turn on them after they've won because he doesn't want to stop the murders.

Victor Olson, another criminal they turn into a werewolf in exchange for his help, is a pedophile who raped five small girls and killed the last one. Justified in this case, as only truly despicable people would help with a scheme like that.

* WomanWereWoes: Elena is the only female werewolf, due to having been bitten by Clay. Not only did this cause massive problems in her and Clay's romantic relationship, but makes her a target for "mutts," non-Pack werewolves who want to possess the only female werewolf in existence.

* ElderlyBlueHairedLady: A cliche of Paige's coven in ''Dime Store Magic''. Paige laments that there are far too many members of the coven that conform to said stereotype.

* FemaleGaze: Nearly all the narrators are female. The series is called ''Women of the Otherworld'' after all.
** The sex scenes certainly qualify.
** Less pleasant, but also important are most of the narrators' experiences with predatory men, especially Elena's encounters with the Tesler brothers and Hope's later dealings with Jaz.

* ResurrectedMurderer: In life, Andrei Duchev was a RepulsiveRingmaster who mutiliated innocent people into horrible abominations who were in horrfic pain.

Andrei was sent to a prison in purgatory where he feigned that he had reformed of evil. They released him so he could hunt the demonic serial killer known as the Nix. Instead it backfired and Andrei now as malevolent spirit became her serial killer buddy in raking up new atrocities in undeath.
