Informative

While this book was not as good as the others in the series it provides a lot of background information. It still had an interesting story line and an unexpected ending. I think it is worth listening too so as to put the other books in perspective.

Was not what I expected

I love Gena Showalter, don't get me wrong. But, this was a disappointment. The storyline could have been expanded and the lovemaking scene not really thrilling. It was not very good and I don't recommend anyone wasting time listening to it. Her other books are fantastic.

Not really a prequel...

Having read the first book in the series, I have a really hard time thinking of this as a prequel. It had very little to do with any back story. It seems that it was a totally different story and different world that the author tied in at the end with a mention of creating a box out of bones. It gave so little insight into the book I read that it really isn't even worth having taken the time to listen to. Maybe it'll become more important as I listen to more of the series but right now I'm thinking I wasted my money.

Great short story for Lords fans!

This is a great prequel to the Lords of the Underworld series. It's not a requirement for the LOTU series but it was a great companion read.

This book is weak and not relevant to the series.

The story and characters had no depth. I finished the book with no desire to know how their story would continue. Ok, I understand it is just a short story in an anthology but I have to say, I really thought there should have been more to this story.

'Eh! It was 'Eh

This is a new series for me....so I started at the beginning, book 0.5 as it were. This wasn't at all what I thought the series would be like. A lot of old language, not a lot of spice, very short and really anticlimactic, but what did I really expect from a book that is what not even 2 hours long? It gave a short back story to the rest of the books. I decided to listen to book 1 in the series before writing this review, and I'm glad I did! Book 1, The Darkest Night, was more what I thought the series would be like.

I could have done without this prequel, and if I had to do it over again I wouldn't get it because it is SOOO different than the rest of series that it almost turned me off to the series before I got started.

It's not that it is poorly written, and there is some "tension" in a good way, but ...well....'eh....kind of covers it.

one of my favorites!

Would you listen to The Darkest Fire again? Why?

I have listened to this series 4 times now and it is better every time.

What about Max Bellmore’s performance did you like?

Max bellmore total pulls you in to the story. He is right up there with Phil Gigante.

Any additional comments?

This series is as good as the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. Very awesome!

Very good prequel to the series :D

4 stars

This was a very good prequel to the LoTU series. It was an interesting take on how the Demon Lords escaped hell and why (and how) Pandora's box was created. The romance between Geryon & Kadence was intriguing. I kind of wished there was a little more time to explore it more but I will say that although the ending was a bit on the bitter-sweet side, they did end with what I'd term as a HEA. Now I'm really looking forward to reading the LoTU series. I'd recommend this story. :D

Only slightly interesting

Would you try another book from Gena Showalter and/or Max Bellmore?

I didn't realize this would be like listening to mythology. The reader did ok, but couldn't bring a lot of life to this book. Glad I only paid $2 for it.

What three words best describe Max Bellmore’s voice?

Slightly monotone

Sweet!

While I liked this book, it ended way too soon. However, it was a splendid introduction to the Lords of the Underworld. The Darkest Fire was magical and romantic. I was not crazy about the end, but was glad their love prevailed
