Product Description
From Booklist
After killing a Kavanagh in battle, Conall O'Rourke is cursed by the Irish goddess of war to serve and protect the rest of the warrior's descendants until the end of time or the end of the Kavanagh line. Eight hundred years later, Conall thinks he might finally be free of his curse when the last Kavanagh left in the world turns up at the Castle of Dreams. The only problem is that all Gerry Kavanagh, a vampire and a paranormal police agent, wants to do is catch the shape-shifting jewel thief who so far has managed to elude her, and Gerry doesn't want or need any immortal warrior acting as her bodyguard. With a terrific cast of delightfully amusing characters and her usual devilishly sharp sense of humor, Bangs brings her Wicked paranormal romance trilogy to a sizzlingly sexy, exceptionally entertaining conclusion.

4 stars, May 4 2007
By AK "Bro" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wicked Fantasy (Mass Market Paperback)
Eight centuries ago, killing Morrigan's favorite warrior netted Connall O'Roarke the curse of immortality and the gaes to always protect the man's descendants until the last one dies. He's been off duty for a few years because his last charge died and the next one hasn't shown up, so he spent his time helping run the Castle of Dark Dreams, Sparkle Stardust's realm of fantasies. Then, he gets word that the last Kavanagh is checking in, so Connall once more has to protect the offspring of the enemy. However, when he meets Gerry, he discovers she's a very attractive woman and a vampire. His duty will now never end, but considering how much he likes her, that is either a blessing or a further curse. Morrigan has also banned him from having relations with a Kavanagh. He might be released sooner than he expects, if whoever is trying to kill Gerry has their way. Between the would-be assassin, Gerry's determination to catch a serial killer, and Morrigan determined to stop them from acting on their desires, life is more interesting than Connall ever wanted it to be.**** If you need a good laugh, then grab this one posthaste. The secondary plots alone are enough to make it a worthwhile read. Sparkle, Ganymede, Asima, and Fo, the talking cell phone/demon detector, keep you smiling or giggling throughout the story. The main plot is, of course engaging and fun, filled with surprise twists and turns around every corner. I truly look forward to finding out what trouble the cosmic troublemakers will caues next. ****

Everyone is a comedian which left me in the dumps!, Aug 4 2007
By Jane - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wicked Fantasy (Mass Market Paperback)
I had a hard time reading this last instalment of Nina Bangs trilogy. Although I enjoyed the humour of Sparkle Stardust & Mede in the previous books - this last book was so overdone with one-liners, cliches, smarmy remarks that it left me cold and in the dust! I could not connect with anyone because it seemed that everyone was a comedian. Obviously Ms. Bangs never heard of "less is more". The right balance was found in the first book when Sparkle Stardust made her entrance along with Mede. They were a delightful pair and an oasis of humour amid the dark realm of vampires, etc in the Castle of Dark Dreams. But by this last book she made everyone a comedian which lost it's charm for me after the first few chapters. Ms. Bangs also uses the same storyline in each book of a dowdy dressing heroine whom Sparkle dresses up in sexy clothes in order to seduce our hero. That's enough already! I had to force myself to finish this book. I was sorely disappointed and as bored as hearing the same joke over, and over again.

The 'Wicked' books [of which this is the 3rd] are hilarious with touches of silliness and lots of interesting paranormal characters. A real page turner.
