Publisher's summary

Number-one New York Times best-selling author J. R. Ward’s novels of the Black Dagger Brotherhood continue, as a vampire warrior crosses the line between life and death…and ventures into an erotic world of dark dreams and darker desires.

Ever since the death of his shellan, Tohrment has been unrecognizable from the vampire leader he once was. Physically emaciated and heartbroken beyond despair, he has been brought back to the Brotherhood by a self-serving fallen angel. Now, fighting once again with ruthless vengeance, he is unprepared to face a new kind of tragedy.

When Tohr begins to see his beloved in his dreams - trapped in a cold, isolated netherworld far from the peace and tranquility of the Fade - he turns to the angel in hopes of saving the one he has lost. But because Lassiter tells him he must learn to love another to free his former mate, Tohr knows they are all doomed....

Except then a female with a shadowed history begins to get through to him. Against the backdrop of the raging war with the lessers, and with a new clan of vampires vying for the Blind King’s throne, Tohr struggles between the buried past and a very hot, passion-filled future.…But can his heart let go and set all of them free?

Critic reviews

“J.R. Ward's unique band of brothers is to die for. I love this series!” (New York Times best-selling author Suzanne Brockmann)

Awesome book Can't wait for the next one:-)

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

Yes I would and I have!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes but it was too long to do so.

Any additional comments?

Warning this series is very additive once you start reading you just can't STOP!

Redeemed!

After barely finishing the previous book I was ready to give up on the rest of the series. I’m so glad that, despite some negative reviews which may or may not be warranted I decided to give Tor a chance to tell his story. I loved it! The last few chapters were totally worth it and I need a “Lassiter” in my life to show up with Big Macs. On to the next one.

TRULY ENJOYED THIS BOOK!!!!

I love this woman's writing. It is so in the "now" and she's "on it" with the slang. Her characters are deep, not cardboard cutouts. They are not predictable and when they mess up, you can certainly understand why. J.R. Ward is right up there with the best. I truly could not put this audio book down. Her male characters curse, they have deep issues, they are sexual, nice and in the end very caring. I also loved the dynamics between the star couple. They fight and work through there "stuff". Jim Frangione is excellent. I remember in the first book that he narrated for the Black Dagger Brotherhood series, he swallowed a lot. It's amazing to see how he's really grown and gotten into the characters.

If you like urban fantasy, you probably already know to get this one.

What did you like best about this story?

It kept me on my toes, what I thought would happen didnt and what I thought would not happen did.

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

Some parts are very emotional and made me shed a few tears.

Favorite Book Series

The Ward is the best- in my opinion no one comes close in this genre. Narration is perfection.

Laughed and Cried

I absolutely loved this book! I have been reading the series back to back and this was one of my favorites.

One of my favorites of the series.

Audio review: loved this book. # 10 in the series. This one has been one of my favorites. Even though there are certain things I wish had happened differently I still really loved this book! All the side characters stories and the complexity of the main couple was very interesting altogether!
Starting the next one now.
Love the narrator too!

Detailed

I loved all the insights we get to character emotions and their hidden efforts.

Great book

This is not much of a review, but I really enjoyed reading this book. It never has a lull. I laughed and cried.

Plot twists galore...

Some very interesting twists to the multiple stories of the characters in this series. What an ending!
