Lots of sex, no substance to the story September 6, 2010 Fantasy Fan This must be one of the most disappointing books that I have read in a long time. There is no connection between the two main characters Mikhail and Raven. Mikhail comes across as arrogant, domineering and very unlikeable. Raven on the other hand just gives in to Mikhail's demands and is very weak and to be honest desperate to fall for a guy like that!! Prior to this, I had just finished reading J R Ward's first "Black Dagger Brotherhood" novel - which was far superior on all accounts. "Dark Prince" didn't do it for me and there are so many other authors who write this type of novel better!!! I'd avoid this one and concentrate on J R Ward and Nalini Singh amongst others. At least they create worlds that you can get lost in, with just about the right amount of romance and you never feel like the woman in the story is being belittled. This wasn't for me!!
A dissapointing read, (and I am easily pleased!) August 13, 2010 F. Lawless (Scotland) I wont re-cap on the story line of this book as others have done, but I will say that if you are looking for some sexy vamp escapism with a large dollop of action, suspense, humour and a fiesty female, dont buy this. I thought that this would be a good read and as a voracious reader of paranormal romance, I am easily pleased, however this was a repetitive dirge that never seemed to go anywhere.
Just a tip, but if the hero finds his girl in the first three pages, where else is there to go? I love a good romance as much as the next girl but all the love scenes were the same, the heroine is spineless and the hero is so busy being obsessive that he forgets to romance the girl at all, and I never figured out why she would be with what basically amounts to a obsessive compulsive stalker who snaks on this "life mate" without asking!
Sorry if you are a lover of this series, but I wont be picking up any more of these as I fear for any girl who identifies with a wet blanket heroine who gives up on everything, including her humanity for a hero such as Mikhail.
Don't do it!! August 3, 2010 C. R. Holden (Lancashire) Please don't waste your money or precious time on this drivel. I bought 3 to take on my hols and then was stuck with them for 2 whole weeks. All these reviewers can't be wrong, can they?? Oh yes they can. Don't get me wrong, there are glimpses of greatness here. The Carpathian world is very interesting, and could have been taken very far. But the plots, and the characters - good God. Boring, tepid, spineless women - so delicate and gentle - totally wet. Yuck. And the men, overly-noble, holier than thou and very annoying.
Worse still, once you have read one book, you know them all!! Feehan shamelessly repeats the same plots, the same ideas, the same love scenes in every single book. Yawn. Where is the fun, the tension, when you already know the outcome??
I hardly ever write reviews, but these books annoyed me so much. What a waste of good reading time. Good luck to you if you do buy these.
Please don't read this book! June 6, 2010 R. Gray Well, What can I say.
Your life is too short.
This is one of the worst books that I have ever read.
It is repetative in both dialogue and plot.
The characters are one dimesional.
The so called erotic scenes are cringe worthy.
It is trite.
Don't waste your time with this book!
Carpathian Novel a must read for every woman June 1, 2010 Sarah Litchfield (United Kingdom) most women will read and wish such men existed for real, wow I could not put the book down :)
