Review: Acheron


From Gookreads:
The most anticipated story in the blockbuster Dark-Hunter series. The never-before-revealed story of the Dark-Hunter leader, Acheron. He was made human in order to escape death, but in death he was reborn a god. . .

Eleven thousand years ago a god was born. Cursed into the body of a human, Acheron spent a lifetime of shame. However, his human death unleashed an unspeakable horror that almost destroyed the earth. Then, brought back against his will, Acheron became the sole defender of mankind.
Only it was never that simple. For centuries, he has fought for our survival and hidden a past he’ll do anything to keep concealed. Until a lone woman who refuses to be intimidated by him threatens his very existence.

Now his survival, and ours, hinges on hers and old enemies reawaken and unite to kill them both.
War has never been more deadly... or more fun.

My Review:
Apparently, there's nothing more fun then reading the book. I couldn't put it down! It's over seven hundred pages, and during summer vacation, just a week after I bought it, I started reading. And reading. And reading. And finished in in 1 day. It was my first book that I've read by her, and it was the 15th in the series. I promptly requested the rest of the books from the library, and have slowly been building my collection of her books (latest count is that I own 18 and have read almost all of them.) I love the dialouge, very funny.

I love the plot, how the first half or so was his past, and the second half was the present day, it really let us readers into the God who was Acheron, his motivations, and the past really explained the present in a way that I've never read before.

My only compliant with the book, is of course, like any good book, is that it ended. Yep. I would recommend this book to anybody who enjoys adult romance paranormal I think you can call it, it does have demons, and creatures that are similar to vampires and were's and such :)

Yep. So go read this book, and probably the other's first, and you'll see why I like it!
