Publisher's summary

#1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon brings us back to the astonishing world of the Dark-Hunters in Stygian, with a hero misunderstood by many…but most of all by himself.

Born before man recorded time, I lived for thousands of years believing myself to be something I’m not.

Someone I’m not.

Lied to and betrayed by gods, Daimons, and Dark-Hunters, I’ve struggled to find my way in a world where I’ve been cursed since the moment I was prematurely ripped from my mother and planted into the womb of an innocent woman who thought me her son.

Trained as a slayer and predator, I learned to fit in and stay low. To become a tool for evil. Until I was sent to kill the one woman I couldn’t. My hesitation cost her her life.

Or so I thought. In an act of betrayal that makes all the others pale in comparison, I’ve learned that this world is an illusion and that my Phoebe still lives.

Now I will have to travel into the very pits of Hades to try and save her, even as everyone around me attempts to steal what little soul I have left. There’s only one person at my back and I’m not sure I can trust her either, for she was born of an enemy race. Yet sometimes the road to redemption is one that singes us to our very core. And if I fail to find the answers I need to save Phoebe, more than just my wife will die.

We will lose the world. Both human and Daimon.

Good, but

It was good to hear Yurion’s story, but there was SO MUCH cut and paste from Styx’s in this. I get that they are intertwined, but there was a lot of it. Then, toward the end, it became hard to follow. Good story, but not one of her best books.

great book

can never go wrong with SK. her books are great reads. it took me about 7 chapters to get use to the narrators voice flight

Loved it!

Dragonsworn is my all time favorite! I love Ori and seeing it thru his eyes and his story! I also loved how all the characters from Dragonsworn are still united and friends. The story had great plots! I just loved it!

too much repetition from the dragon books

honestly I lights maybe 60% of this book in the first half or so we learn about his past but the sections to repeated stuff from the dragon books got tiresome because for those books or Ian really wasn't involved much would doing anything so I kind of felt weird without him as a Viewpoint character also the end was kind of cheap spoilers through those who haven't read the book there two women that love him and he pretty much has to choose one and in the author kind of cheapens that struggle by just having one of them go kind of crazy evil and have 20 years of grief just go away with out any real conflict resolution just boom it's gone. despite the very ending and the repetition Parts I did mostly like this work

No Disappointments

As with many of Ms. Kenyon's books I Loved this one. It is well written, entertaining, and most certainly, engaging. On top of this, Holter Graham brings the whole thing to life. Thank you for this book

Pretty good

I enjoyed this book a lot but, I would've enjoyed to know more about Urian's life after everything else. I mean, I know what happened on the other books so after he finally found Zen, now what? they move in together and that's it?. I was a bit disappointed with the end. but overall not bad.

OMG! One of the Best she's written 😍

I Absolutely loved this book!
I laughed and cried with the characters in this book. Great Job!!!

Orion

Enjoyed it. same story different view. Clears up a lot of questions. Can't wait for the next one.

Sherrilyn has set the bar!

What an amazing tale!! Sherrilyn has gone above and beyond to grab the reader and bring them into this Dark-Hunter's world.

Great Ride!!!

Took me awhile to get into the story but once I did it was a joy ride thru all the wonderful places.
With each book; we get a little more background on all our most beloved and reviled characters that flourish from Sherilynn's mind. Thanks so much!
