 Exceptional...SK is back! October 20, 2008
With the exception of Devil May Cry, the last few books by Kenyon in the Dark-Hunter and Dream-Hunter series has left me flat. However, SK has brought me back into the fold with Acheron!
Acheron's story is poignant and complex and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. The book takes you through Acheron's past and sheds light on his experiences and relationship with Artemis. I loved the heroine in this book and Acheron's realization of his TRUE worth. It is truly a must read! I am looking forward to Stryker's book which will be out in November.
I also hope that Kenyon returns to the Werehunters...I am eagerly awaiting Aimee and Fang's story.
Riveting! October 17, 2008
Though many people seem to find the beginning of the book unpleasant and IT IS quite depressing and difficult to read because of the horrendous experiences Acheron endured....but this gives many of his behaviors some background, depth, and helps the reader understand him and some of his present "quirks". I've read it once, then went back and reread the 2 prior books (dreamhunter,etc) bacause they had not been up to what I consider the author's standards and somewhat boring so I had not really read them and I want the background before I reread Acheron. I can't wait! It will be even better this time. Sherrilyn really returned to the previous kind of books she writes so well. If you are a dark hunter fan, then you have to read this......it will reward you, especially since the last couple books, I believe, were let-downs. THIS ONE ISN'T!!!!
This was Great!!!!!!!! October 14, 2008
I could not put this book down. I loved it, if you where not in love with him before you should be now. Great Book you have to read it.
Culmination of the Dark-HUnter series ! October 14, 2008
This is the "topper" of the Kenyon Dark-HUnter series. Fans had been waiting with "bated breath" for Acheron's story to arrive and it did not dissappoint ! The "heart and soul" character of the Dark HUnters is truly alive and well in Kenyon's 12th book of the series. The book is an extensive 728 page epic of Acheron's life ,or "lives", which was absolutely necessary in order to bring to life this , her most enigmatic and intriguing character, in a very realistic and impacting way. It is jammed packed w/ Kenyon's usual outsatnding level of human drama, hip humor,witty banter, classical history, pop-culture and steamy sensuality factor. A true winner ! If you have been a Dark HUnter devotee and have harbored a serious crush on "Ash", you cannot miss this read, for it truly is the culminating masterpiece of her series (although NOT the last book) Sit back or "lie back" and enjoy !
 Really disappointing! October 13, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have been waiting for Ash's story since the beginning of the Darkhunter series and THIS is what I get? Seriously, the pages and pages of abuse were soooo not necessary - a few chapters would have been enough but almost 400 pages? With all his regal bearing (even with abuse and neglect) the second part where he lamely falls in love the minute he sees Tori? Come on, with all his history how could you expect us to believe it would be that easy! I'm really sorry I read this because it has ruined any chance of me reading any more of Kenyon's books in the future!
