Loving this book,
This review is from: Immortal Champion (Mass Market Paperback)
Lisa Hendrix delivers the goods again. She always does. The book is full of action and emotion. The Hero and heroine are lovable,smart and couragous. She is a masterful storyteller.You'll love Gunnar's story. This is Lisa Hendrix's third book in her series about immortal cursed vikings but you are going to want to read their stories too.

Love That Stands the Test of Time,
By CofeeGirl - Published on Amazon.com
I was fortunate enough to get my hands on this book early...and I'm glad that I did! The third book in the Immortal Brotherhood series, Immortal Champion is Gunnar the Red's story. By night, Gunnar is a man (and what a man!) and at dawn, he's transformed into a bull.The book opens with Gunnar saving the life of Eleanor, and from that moment, he becomes her champion. She gives her heart to him, even though she's betrothed to another man. Immortal Champion is about love that survives and grows no matter what the obstacle. Not even magic can kill it. It's rare that I completely empathize with both hero and heroine for an entire book, but I did with Gunnar and Eleanor. Their motives were always clear, and even when they were making heart wrenching decisions, you knew why they were doing it. Immortal Champion made me laugh, and cry. It made me want to kill the villains and kiss the hero, then get out of the way so his heroine could kiss him. The book is 324 pages and I managed to finish it in one night, because I just couldn't put it down until I knew that Gunnar and Eleanor were finally together. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful

Great paranormal historical series,
By K. Howard "Kindle Ho" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Immortal Champion (Mass Market Paperback)
Ahhhhh, Gunnar! Gunnar will make you melt. Now here's a REAL man. (Well, a man AND a bull, but let's not be particular.) But about the book.... I absolutely love paranormal historical romances, and this is definitely one of THE best series there is. The mythology is fascinating, and Hendrix has given us a great variety of heroes and heroines so far. Gunnar and Lady Eleanor have got to be one of my favorite romance couples ever. They so belong together, but it seems destiny conspires to keep them apart. You know there will be a HEA, but oh, what they have to go through to get it! If you haven't picked up this series, I suggest you do, and start from the beginning - you won't won't to miss a word.

Immortal Champion can be a heart wrenching book to read,
By Bookaholics Reviewer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Immortal Champion (Mass Market Paperback)
Immortal Champion by Lisa HendrixParanormal Romance- Jan 4th, 2011 4 1/2 5 stars Cursed by an evil sorceress, nine Viking warriors was transformed into their fylgur, their spirit companion. Each warrior was cursed to immortality and to live half the day as a different animal and the other half as human. The only way to break the curse is to find their respective amulet and true love, which is easier said than done. Six hundred years after his curse, Gunnar the Red still searches for amulet and the woman who will love him despite his curse. By day a red bull, by night a man, he has all but lost hope when he rescues Lady Eleanor from a fire. Ever since her rescue, Eleanor has been infatuated with the stranger who saved her and then disappeared. When four years pass and there are still no signs that he will come, Eleanor resigns herself to marrying another. But the old Norse gods has other plans, for Gunnar returns. He has totally forgotten the little girl he had saved and does not recognize the beautiful young woman she has become. But the passion she incites gives him hope that perhaps, she can learn to love him and break the curse... Immortal Champion can be a heart wrenching book to read. Though Gunnar and Eleanor are clearly meant for each other, the road to togetherness is winding and sad at times. Being the daughter of a powerful lord, Eleanor is treated as pawn by her father to gain political favor and wealth. This book reminded me of the movie Tristan and Isolde, a forbidden love that endures even though she marries another. I cringed when Eleanor cried the morning after her wedding night; it was too sad. At the end, even though you know this is a happily-ever-after book, you can't help but still feel relieved and satisfied when they get back together. Lisa Hendrix had written a gratifying and unique novel that really makes you feel like you are back in the medieval days minus the historical lectures. A surprisingly touching story, Immortal Champion is a must for readers who love fairy-tale like storiess. Reviewed by Pauline from Bookaholics Romance Club |
