Publisher's summary

A dark storm is on the horizon.... Return to Christine Feehan’s “steamy and dreamy” (Publishers Weekly) world of her New York Times best-selling Carpathian novels as roiling passions collide in a perfect storm of dangerous desire that only a precious few can hope to outrun....

Awakening after all this time in a world of absolute darkness and oppressive heat, Dax wonders in how many ways the world above must have changed. But it is how he has changed that fills him with dread and loathing. Buried alive for hundreds of years in a volcano in the Carpathian Mountains, Dax fears that he has become the full-fledged abomination that every Carpathian male fears, a victim of the insidious evil that has crept relentlessly into his mind and body over the centuries.

But there are some things that never change.

His name is Mitro, the vampire Dax had hunted all these long centuries. Second in command to the prince of the Carpathian people he is the epitome of everything malevolent, and perpetrator of one of the most shocking killing sprees known to man - and beast. Even his friends and family weren’t safe from Mitro’s bloodlust. Neither was Mitro’s lifemate, Arabejila, an extraordinary woman with extraordinary gifts.

But now that Dax has re-emerged, so too has Mitro. The ultimate battle between good and evil has been re-engaged. Between Dax and Mitro, a violent game has begun - one that has marked Riley Parker, the last descendent of Arabejila, as the reward.

Another Feehan Hit!!!!

This book was well worth the wait, I believe this book is one of her best. The narrators did a wonderful job! The story is one that draws you in and keeps you wanting more and the narrators make the characters come to life. It's the perfect combination! All I can say is I love this book and I'm glad I went with my instincts, I'm glad I didn't get discouraged by bad reviews. I'm happy I took a chance and spent the credit, it was well worth it!!!!
Way to go Christine Feehan!!!!! I'll patiently wait for the next Dark Series Book.

A different courtship.

When I first listened to this series, somehow, I did not listen to this book in the order it was meant. I’m not sure how I missed it but, apparently I did. I had to adjust my thinking because this book is quite a bit back in time, compared to the current last book in the series; but I was able. The one thing about this book that is unique, is the courtship between the Hero and the Heroine. In this book, the Hero has been locked inside a Volcano for hundreds of years. Therefore, he has not experienced the gradual changes, in the Carpathian culture, or the slow progression of technology. Gary is in this book and the Hero is able to acquire some knowledge from him, after feeding. However, he handles the courtship of his life mate in the way that he remembers it done from time passed. Therefore, there were some different rituals and the pace was slower than the other books. The change was nice and somewhat refreshing. Therefore, I think this will always be one of my favorites, in this series. Worth a credit? Absolutely, YES!

Feels like home

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Definitely, I have read ever book in this series, and the story seems to lead back to the original storyline. If you are a big fan of the Dark Series, this will remind you of Falcon and Sara's story, Traian and Joie or Dayan and Coriane. Where the lifemate recognize each other right away and they come together to defeat the vampire, and at the same time are very comfortable with each other and truely love each other. No violence to win them. One of my favorite in the series.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The dragon was my favorite. Even as he was dying and giving a piece of himself to Dex he never gave up is spirit.

What about Erik Bergmann and Kristine Ryan ’s performance did you like?

Very good performance. I like that Feehan's uses both a female and male voice.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It didn't make me laugh or cry, but it did make me feel that the storyline was going back to the original storyline.

Any additional comments?

I was glad to see that Jasmine and Jubal were getting close. I also like all the interaction with the other characters.

Sexy, Sexy, Sexy Now, More, More Please!

I have been waiting for this book for a long time. I was totally excited to download this one. Sometimes when the anticipation is high you get a little let down. It did not happen this time. I have all the books in the Dark series. One thing that I like about Feehan’s books is that she knows how to work in adventure, drama, and still have those hot sexy moments. I fell in love with the story of Dax and Riley. Now for the die heart Dark series fans like me…Feehan sheds more light into the mystery of why the Carpathian women have such a hard time with child birth, she introduces several intriguing missing elements, which just happens to make one of my favorite love scenes in the book. Believe me, you will never thing of flowers the same way again. It took me a while to write this review because sometimes I like to listen to the good ones twice. This was a good one!

AND SHE IS BACK

Would you consider the audio edition of Dark Storm to be better than the print version?

I like Dark Storm better because it helps me to visualize the characters. The little bit that it adds really appeals to me

What did you like best about this story?

I like the fact that there were others from previous stories in this one. I like the fact that we learned more about gary. He is such an interesting character. Plus it is good to know more about Juliette's family. I hate to think we never got to see what happens to characters when we move to another story

Which scene was your favorite?

my favorite scene was the conversion. This is always my favorite scene. I like the fact that the women have to go through pain. it is almost like child birth. The pain is needed to be come something new just as giving birth brings someone new to the world

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed a lot. To me this is one of the best books so far.

A new story line

I am trilled that Christine Feehan has introduced a new story line, touching on some old ones, with some new characters in this book. I can't wait to see where she goes next and hope that she expands this line in future books.

another great read

Would you listen to Dark Storm again? Why?

Yes. the narration of Erik Bergmann and Kristine Ryan together was delightful.

What does Erik Bergmann and Kristine Ryan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

It takes on another life. I love to read but with audible i can listen to the same book and it becomes another story. Like watching a show in black and white then seeing it in color its the same show but yet it becomes more .

Fabulous

Christine Feehan has a wonderful imagination. Dark Storm is an exciting and romantic novel. I have read all The Dark series and this is a favorite. I especially like the male/female narration. It makes the listening experience much more enjoyable.

Stupendous!!!

Christine Feehan is amazing. She came up with a NEW refreshing angle for the Carpathian in Dark Storm. I adore this series and this is one of my favorite books so far. I also enjoy having a male and female narrator.
