I was introduced to paranormal books by a friend and I started with reading books by the author Sherrilyn Kenyon, and since I read Night Pleasures , I just wanted to continue with the entire series and I must say that I have not been disappointed so far. It is like an addiction, you just can't get enough. With Seize the Night, it made me laugh, cry, angry, sad and I think I ran the entire gamut of emotion known to man. I absolutely loved it. I only wished that so many of the good guys did not have to die. I still can't figure out who or what Acheron is and the suspense is killing me. I love the way Tabitha and Valerius connects, they are like two different halves of a whole and yet somehow they have managed to compliment each other. I wish more people were accepting of their fellowmen differences as unique and not scorn or condemn. I have not only learned acceptance from these books but tolerance as well, and that I would never have wanted to live in the time period when Valerius, Kyrian,and Julian lived as humans. In conclusion, I love this book and it will be added to my collection. NB.: Now that I am hooked, I will have to go back on ebay and try to get the others. Just wished I did not have to cotinuously buy an entire selection to get just one book that I don't have and end up with several of the same titles.Read full review
Having read previous books with Valerius in them—and I will grudgingly admit that—I wasn’t entirely certain just how much I would like Valerius as a main character. Sure, he seemed strong and infallible, but there was just something about him that rubbed me the wrong way…even more than Zarek! Now, however, the only Dark-Hunter book that made me cry more than this one was Zarek’s story: Dance With the Devil. This book was touching and it grabbed me in a certain, painful place in my chest and just wouldn’t let go. I was fascinated at how Sherrilyn Kenyon made the readers care about Valerius. It was a huge feat and she accomplished it with her usual finesse. Tabitha was another character that I wasn’t too sure about. In previous books, she was so pushy and never seemed to think things through and—to be perfectly honest—she was actually almost annoying. It was good to see a whole other side to both of these character and I really don’t want to give anything away, but it was SO cool to learn more about Ash—though it was a bit on the confusing side and I’ll probably have to read it again to fully comprehend it. Happy reading!Read full review
BACK OF BOOK SAYS: I WAS BORN THE NOBLE SON OF A LEGENDARY ROMAN SENATOR. I walked through the ancient world as a general, admired and supreme until a brutal betrayal caused me to bargain my soul. no i am immortal dark hunter bound to protect mankind from the evil scourge that haunts it. over the centuries. i have seen many frightening things, plagues, pestilence disco music. and now tabitha devereaux. a huamn she has trained herself to fight vampires every bit as capably as any dark hunter. idiosyncratic and off beat she is my personal bane and yet she beguiles me. there are only two small problems . she happens to be the mortal enemy's wife (see fantsy lover book 1) more than that tabitha and her sister are being stalked by a power that will not rest until everyone she holds dear is dead. this is a very important book, it's the ground work for the rest of the series. this is book 7 in the series for those of you who are keeping track. a few reasons why i liked this book are: 1. no pet peeve, the characters actually like each other from the beginning. there is no "break up" for your own good...... 2. this is the begining of the nick - ash situation 3. tabby and val fight together as equals. 4. zarek does good......... 5. more things about ash is revealed 6. alot of characters from previous books are included, and it's nice to know what happens "after" a book ends.......... while val's past is not as tragic as some previous ones, it is tragic, although i know you will agree there #1 tragic is ash. i like the ending of this book, it was sorta happy, ok there are a few loose ends, but this is a continuing series like the soaps. so that's ok. but the ending didn't make me sad, or angry etc. overall it was a good book, it didn't depress the life out of me. although the nick situation is going to get worse before it gets better. still waiting for his book..... his real book...............Read full review
