Publisher's summary

In Sherrilyn Kenyon's The Guardian, Dream-Hunter Lydia has been charged with the most sacred and dangerous of missions: To descend into the Nether Realm and find the missing god of dreams before he betrays the secrets that could kill her and her kind. What she never expects is to be taken prisoner by the Realm's most vicious guardian…

Seth's time is running out. If he can't hand over the entrance to Olympus, his own life and those of his people will be forfeit. No matter the torture, Seth hasn't been able to break the god in his custody. Then there's the beautiful Dream-Hunter Lydia: She isn't just guarding the gates of Olympus—she's holding back one of the world's darkest powers. If she fails, an ancient curse will haunt the earth once more and no one will be safe. But evil is always seductive...

Critic reviews

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

“A delicious balance of suspense and sensuality.” —Publishers Weekly

“Engaging.” —Entertainment Weekly

My favourite book.

I love this book it feels well paced and well written unlike some of her newer stuff in the Dark Hunter series

not what I expected

a new twist on the happily ever after ending. a wonderful story to listen to

Amazing

Nothing can describe how true love always prevails another amazing book in this amazing series!

Another home run.

Like many of Sherrilyn’s books, Seth is a tortured hero. It’s hard not to reach into the pages and give him a hug. I’m a huge fan of Sherrilyn Kenyon and have been slowly working my way through all of her books. I have not been disappointed. Some of my favorites are Dance with the Devil, Devil may Cry, and Born of Night. I will defiantly re-listen to the dark-hunter series again in the future. Sherrilyn also goes by the pseudonym Kinley MacGregor and I plan on trying some of them out next, but alas I will have to read them in book form since Audible doesn’t have them yet.

I loved this one so much!

I cried while listening to this one. the narrator does such a good job and this story is sooo touching!

Good Story

Didn't like the reader but the story was everything. Had me crying and laughing unexpectedly. VERY GOOD READ.

Guard Your Heart from these Dream Hunters

Kenyon's Dark Hunter world is growing bigger (and hotter) with each book. If you like paranormal romance, this is a must read. And on audio, they are even more sexy with the character's accents done with professional narration. Readers are swept into this fantastical world. *Important to read this series in order*

I just love these books by Sherrilyn Kenyon

What about Fred Berman’s performance did you like?

I love his performance - but I would love to have move people doing difference parts

Any additional comments?

I would love to see some of her books in a movie - just one to see if they can do it right - if the first one does not come out right then please no more -

The Guardian...another hit from Sherrilyn Kenyon.

I have been an avid reader/listener of Sherrilyn Kenyon's books (series) for sometime now and each time she surprises me with the depth of the characters and her continuing ability to bring the existing story, and the ongoing sagas to life.

The Guardian did not disappoint. The emotions expressed are both heart fealt and intense...of course with the help of Fred Berman. Fred's voice brings to life everything I believe Sherrilyn is trying to convey, and his characterization is fantastic.

In short, whether you have read the previous books in this series, this book is excellent as as stand alone, as well as a continuation of the series.

Listen to the Guardian and you will see why I return to her books over and over again.

Love Fred Berman

The story was good. Loved the main characters, but I've decided that I'm glad Iistened to this instead of reading it. I think Fred Berman did a fabulous job with the characterization of this book. I'm not sure reading this would have captured my attention as well as the audiobook did.
