As a lover of Sherrilyn Kenyon I looked forward to this new series and having finally read it I am, at whole, satisfied and pleased. I understand when others say that it isn't as good as the Dark Hunter series but I thought that this was still great and entertaining. I imagine once Kenyon hits her stride with this new series it will be as good as the Dark Hunters. Once you get into it it is just as heartrending at the end as other Kenyon novels. If you are a true Kenyon lover I trust you should read it and find out for yourself.
