Publisher's summary

The first installment of Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter series, Night Pleasures.

The Dark-Hunters are ancient warriors who have sworn to protect mankind and the fate of the world is in their hands. . .

He is solitude. He is darkness. He is the ruler of the night. Yet Kyrian of Thrace has just woken up handcuffed to his worst nightmare: An accountant. Worse, she's being hunted by one of the most lethal vampires out there. And if Amanda Devereaux goes down, then he does too. But it's not just their lives that are hanging in the balance. Kyrian and Amanda are all that stands between humanity and oblivion. Let's hope they win.

Love in vein: listen to another Dark-Hunter novel.

Critic reviews

“[A] publishing phenomenon…[Sherrilyn Kenyon is] the reigning queen of the wildly successful paranormal scene. . .Just one example of arguably the most in-demand and prolific authors in America these days.” —Publisher's Weekly

“Kenyon's writing is brisk, ironic, sexy, and relentlessly imaginative. These are not your mother's vampire novels.” —The Boston Globe

Well the story is still good.

Would you try another book from Sherrilyn Kenyon and/or Carrington MacDuffie?

I love these stories. I have all the books, and now I'm working on the audible's. Now that that's out of the way. The performance was a bit unbelievable. Kyrnan is suppose to be a prince of Thrace not a Jewish boy from Brooklyn. Her accents were all over the place and all wrong. Acheron with an English accent? Really? Come on.......... I'm thankful that it's only
2 books in the series.. I''m not saying she's a bad narrator......she just doesn't fit this series.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Kyrnan is my fave hero in this book Ash is a close second allthouh I love the verbal comradery between the DH and then there's Nick. How to choose?

What didn’t you like about Carrington MacDuffie’s performance?

She's a very good narrator, she just doesn't fit in this series with these characters.

this series is like crack

i started with the teen version of these books and ran out of them so i was looking to see what else Sherrilyn had written. found these and just could not stop getting them. i love the main charators and the side ones are great also. it's one of those worlds i would just like to be in. some of the books in the series don't really apply but they are all good reads. love the narration.

Very sexy, but not that interesting

I purchased 3 of the Dark-Hunter series when there was a special and this was the 3rd one for me. I have to say that I found the frequent, graphic sex scenes to be distracting and the plot line to be thin. There are so many in this series that I thought that maybe I would get into the stories eventually, but I never really did. Sorry, but I rate this as just "Ok."

Fantastic!

I really loved this one. Sherri's second novel is worth a read!!! Very dramatic and steamy, heart pounding but rewarding right up to the end.
