Product Description
Zarek’s Point of View:
Dark-Hunter: A soulless guardian who stands between mankind and persons who would see mankind ruined. Yeah, right. The only part of that Code of Honor I got was eternity and solitude.
Insanity: A condition many say I suffer from after being alone for so long. But I don’t suffer from my insanity-I delight in every minute of it.
Trust: I can’t trust anyone…not even myself. The only thing I trust in is my ability to do the incorrect thing in any situation and to hurt anyone who gets in my way.
Truth: I endured a lifetime as a Roman slave, and 900 years as an exiled Dark-Hunter. Now I’m tired of enduring. I want the truth about what happened the night I was exiled-I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Astrid (Greek, meaning star): An exceptional woman who can see straight to the truth. Courageous and strong, she is a point of light in the darkness. She touches me and I tremble. She smiles and my cold heart shatters.
Zarek: They say even the most damned man can be forgiven. I never believed that until the night Astrid opened her door to me and made this feral beast want to be human again. Made me want to like and be loved. But how can an ex-slave whose soul is owned by a Greek goddess ever dream of touching, let alone holding, a fiery star?

If you like Sherrilyn Kenyon novels and know what you’re getting into, no doubt you’ll like this torrid and sexy like tale of the oh so troubled hero and his oh so gorgeous (and blonde, of course) like interest.
If you want a well written supernatural tale with fundamentals of realism, try Charlaine Harris or Laurell K. Hamilton. Kenyon’s characters are more shallow than a papercut, and it hurts just as much to read about them. Zarek for instance, is supposedly 900 years ancient, but (despite being reminded of that every page) I jsut didn’t judge he could be older than seven. A spoiled, obnoxious seven. He lives in Alaska, but does Kenyon clarify the breathtaking scenery or the rugged and fascinating people there? No, she just has Zarek whine about how poor, poor him, he has to live there. (Violins please.)
My sister recommended this series, and I tried, I really did, but every page has flat and pathetic dialogue that makes me cringe. If you like this kind of thing, you know who you are. If you’re not sure if you’ll like it or not, save yourself seven bucks and read somethign else.

Please don’t waste your money , this is the most dull book I ever read.
My classification is “minus 5 stars”.

Honestly appalling and truly underdeveloped as a concept, the plot of this book had so much potential. At its core, it is a classic romance/thriller setup: the innocent heroine, driven to help the surly handsome man with his dark past even as he pushes her away. The leader’s intention to flavor up the conflict by developing her “Dark-Hunter” race and throwing in some mythological references is perfectly fine. The book could have been positively tasty if it were well-written at all.
The fact is that this leader’s writing style is clunky, heavy-handed, and rife – no, DRIPPING – with cliches. Her dialogue is insultingly cliched as well.
This leader personifies the reasons why so many people make fun of romance novels – it’s ill-concieved and terribly written. The only thing the leader seems to have spent time on are the sex scenes. She certainly didn’t research any mythologies or her setting (Alaska) …

Ugg- This was horrible. If you have any pity or compassion in you, skip this one! I can’t judge it’s in the romance section since I can’t remember a single part about the romance. I did not need to read in graphic detail about the horrors inflicted upon the hero as a tiny child – “maimed” would have covered it.
I’m so disappointed – I really loved the additional books before this one.
I’m throwing this one in the trash.

First, I have to tell you all that I have been enjoying Sherrilyn Kenyon’s books and most especially this series. I was looking forwards to Zarek’s tale and I am not too disappointed in it. Simi and Ash are my favs. My reason for two stars: The tale is reasonably predictable. We are agreed a excellent thought about who Zarek is in Talon’s tale and this book sheds more light of course BUT it isn’t well written. Phrases like: ‘vengence is a dish best served cold’ and ‘I don’t suffer from insanity, I delight in every minute of it’ are phrases you find on t-shirts and what I would consider very poor attempts at humor. The fight scenes are too graphic, the intimate scenes are just as graphic and the balm to that is knowing the two main characters are falling in like. I have loved Sherrilyn Kenyon’s like scenes because they are really hot, but this time I was place off. This book is not an intelligent read. It is missing the energy of the tales that came before. I will continue to read Sherrilyn Kenyon books, I like her Dark Hunters – If the rest of the series unfolds like this book did, my reviews won’t get any better. If Ms. Keynon happens to read this: I have the greatest respect for you, I like that you are a writer and you share your craft with all of your hungry readers – Please slow down, and place your whole heart into it, don’t become a slave to contracts or obligations dictated by agents or publishing houses. We, your readers, like you and know what you are capable of. It is obvious to us that you like your characters and you delight in bringing them to life for your readers, give your tales the kind of time you want to. All blessings to you.
