Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

With its frenetic, Matrix-style fight scenes and feral, leather-clad heroes, this book makes it easy to see why Kenyon's fantasy world has caught on so quickly and even inspired some readers to role-play on her Web site. Like the vampire-battling immortals of Kenyon's previous Dark-Hunter tales (Dance with the Devil, etc.), Wulf Tryggvason is sexy, dangerous and well over six feet tall. He also has a chip on his shoulder because no one, except his blood relatives and fellow Dark-Hunters, can remember him after he leaves a room due to an ancient curse. Then he meets 26-year-old Cassandra Peters, the one woman who can remember him. Unfortunately, she comes with a "short expiration date." Not only is she destined to die on her 27th birthday, but she holds the fate of the world in her hands. The last of her bloodline, Cassandra must have a child before her birthday or the world will descend into darkness. Even those who buy into this premise will find the tidy denouement hard to swallow, but Kenyon is a master at creating spunky characterizations and cinematic action scenes spiced with wry humor. Though she has a tendency to overwrite, especially when it comes to loves scenes ("She moaned at the rich sensation of having all of his lush power lying over her"), this book is an entertaining thrill ride.

From Booklist

The only thing that can free a Dark-Hunter is the love of a woman. Hard to find if you're the only Hunter cursed to be forgotten within five minutes by whatever human meets you. Wulf suffers this fate, finding true companionship only with those who are exempt: his fellow Hunters and his lone surviving descendant. As for love, that's a lost cause, and meeting Cassandra makes the yearning harder to bear. He can have her only in erotic dreams, except that it turns out that those aren't just dreams, and Cassandra is no mere human. Showcasing Kenyon's knack for resuscitating oft-used plot twists with refreshingly different perspectives, the latest installment in the Dark-Hunter series, which includes Night Embrace (2003) and Dance with the Devil [BKL D 1 03], serves up more of what Kenyon fans have come to expect from her paranormal romances: intensely passionate love, laugh-out-loud humor, and drop-undead gorgeous men.

2.0 out of 5 stars What the?????, Jun 27 2004
This review is from: Kiss of the Night (Mass Market Paperback)
I just love the DH series; I have read all of the novels (in order) and will buy the next one. This book was not, did not, and does not fit the bill. I felt that this book should be just a story that was presented on the DH website. Did we really need to put this one on the shelf for people to buy? NO. This was just one quickie we did not need. The true fans are in this for the long hall, and this was not satisfying at all.

2.0 out of 5 stars Glad the next one's a Were Hunter, July 8 2004
This review is from: Kiss of the Night (Mass Market Paperback)
Well, you ever notice how you watch Dracula and Return of Dracula, and it's the same? Then you rent Son of Dracula and it's a little different, then you get Dracula 1975 and you can't understand how it fits the series?

Welcom to the equivalent. The first two Dark Hunter novels were very identical but good. The third was wildly different and imaginative.

The fourth is a mess.

Sure, we have yummy Wulf who no one can remember but his only living much beleagured kinsman/squire. But who's his heroine? She's an Appollite Princess hunted by Spathi warriors to bring about... well that Ms. Kenyon never quite makes clear.

Cassandra makes you want to weep for the Appollites. She's almost to her dying day and she screams in her mind how she wants to live. Your heart aches for her.

The feelings between Cass and Wulf are nonexistent. They have hot, hot HOT sex in their mutual dreams, but in person the sexual chemistry is so that you half expect him to adopt her.

They must run from the most fearsome Spathi warrior and his son and so they escape to an Appollite town underground. Here's where it gets bizarre. Cass's sister is alive and a Daimon. And the big bad Spathi's son Urian is her Daimon lover.

Kenyon makes you really feel for the Appollities and the Daimons. So at the end you're wondering "how can I read more Dark Hunter novels now? I like the Appollites!"

Add to that an ending that makes you roll your eyes, and well, this seems like a half hearted effort. Ms. Kenyon could you PLEASE stop giving us Dark Hunter's who A: actually have a soul and are too dumb to walk out in the sunlight to test it (like Zarek) and B: get a chance to take revenge on the people who wronged them, and yet the forgo it(Like, well, all of the nancy boys)? Talk about wimps!

I'll definitely be reading her were-hunter story but when the next DH novel comes out with Valerius, I will be very wary, you should be too.

This review is from: Kiss of the Night (Mass Market Paperback)
I know that I'm in the minority, but I found this book not close to the other books. I found the constant "I'm dying" tiresome.

I loved her other books and yes, I'll buy her next one. But I can't give this one but 3 stars. I felt it needed more action and more insight into the characters.
