Sins Of The Night

The Alexion. Judge, Jury, and Executioner of the Dark Hunter force. The Alexion is called in to determine if a Dark Hunter is salvageable, if not, to destroy the immortal.

Warning:

1. If you are not a Dark Hunter fan, you should not read this novel without reading some of her previous work. There is a great deal of backstory that you must understand for this to make sense.
2. There is a foreward at the beginning of the book asking the reader to go to the end of the book and read the short beginning. Please do read that first.

That said, I loved this book. I stayed up all night reading the story of Danger and Alexion. Though most of Sherrilyn Kenyon’s books are independent enough that you can read them alone, you won’t want to. This story is not one of those. Dark Hunter fans have waited a long time for this installment, and I, for one, was not disappointed.

Dangereuse St. Richard is the first Dark Hunter female we’ve really got to spend time with. While others have been mentioned, this is the readers first insider track, so to say. She is a petite thing created during the French Revolution, murdered by her husband. It is noted Artemis must have taken special liking to Danger, for Artemis’ taste run to taller women who are more of the same stature of the Daimons they fight.

A rebellion is brewing in the backwoods. Dark Hunters are drawing together with restless thoughts and unease. A Daimon walks among them, sewing seeds of discord, and some of the Dark Hunters are buying in. Hook. Line. And Sinker. The Alexion is sent to save those who can be saved and judge those who cannot, and he’s starting with Danger.
