Styxx

De: Sherrilyn Kenyon

Narrado por: Fred Berman

The most highly-anticipated novel in the Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter series since Acheron is here—the unforgettable story of Styxx, Acheron's twin brother and one of the most powerful beings on earth

Just when you thought doomsday was over . . .

Centuries ago Acheron saved the human race by imprisoning an ancient evil bent on absolute destruction. Now that evil has been unleashed and it is out for revenge.

As the twin to Acheron, Styxx hasn't always been on his brother's side. They've spent more centuries going at each other's throats than protecting their backs. Now Styxx has a chance to prove his loyalty to his brother, but only if he's willing to trade his life and future for Acheron's.

The Atlantean goddess of Wrath and Misery, Bethany was born to right wrongs. But it was never a task she relished. Until now.

She owes Acheron a debt that she vows to repay, no matter what it takes. He will join their fellow gods in hell and nothing is going to stop her. But things are never what they seem, and Acheron is no longer the last of his line. Styxx and Acheron must put aside their past and learn to trust each other or more will suffer.

Yet it's hard to risk your own life for someone who once tried to take yours, even when it's your own twin, and when loyalties are skewed and no one can be trusted, not even yourself, how do you find a way back from the darkness that wants to consume the entire world? One that wants to start by devouring your very soul?

Good listen if you like long books

I liked this one it's a great companion book to Acheron, telling the story from Styxx's point of view. The narrator never disappoints.

Never cried so much

A tale of tragedy, suffering, joy and loss. Full of emotions, the author has created a masterful piece of art that brings out every emotion. Never have I bawled so much while listening to an audiobook. The voice actor reading the novel did it complete justice. In my opinion, he adds much more depth with his brilliant portrayal of the characters, and their emotions. I want to listen to it again immediately after finishing it.

This book hurts a lot

Yes; dark hunters all have tragic backstories. It is how they became dark hunters, but this is really rough even for this series. It is up there with Acheron's and Zarek's stories and more of this book is dedicated to how Styxx was abused than either Acheron's and Zarek's books. So, it's a rough listen and may be triggering for people. I cried a lot. Also, Ryssa is even more stupid in this book than she was in Acheron's book. She just has zero aptitude for self-reflection or growth. Who needs enemies when you have a sibling like Ryssa?

Absolutely amazing!

This is 2nd favorite book, next to Acheron. I've read both, dozens of times. Listening in my car, the narrator brought the story to life. On to the next one!

She's done it again!

The main character suffered so much in his very supernaturally long life and the amount of trauma that he endured literally had me in tears, and while he was angry he never allowed the pain turn him into an uncaring person. He still tried to do what was right. As painful as this book was it was so beautifully written. the narrator also did a wonderful job and I honestly enjoyed his reading though his cajun accent needs a bit of work I can't be to upset with him over it, considering he's not cajun.
