Search - Damien (Nightwalkers, Bk 4)

'Damien' is the best of the Nightwalker books. I enjoyed 'Jacob', was disappointed in 'Gideon', couldn't read 'Elijah,' but LOVED 'Damien'.

Jacquelyn Frank continues to build her unique world of demons, druids, vampires, lycans, mistrals and shadowdwellers. We learn more of their culture and histories as the Nightwalkers gain lost knowledge of their dependence on one another. The story might be difficult to understand without reading at least the first two books.

Damien, the Vampire Prince, rescues Syreena, the princess of the Lycans from the rogue demon Ruth. They discover their attraction to one another in the process. Many centuries old, Damien and most vampires, struggle with apathy...they've seen and done everything. But Syreena stirs new feelings in Damien and he pursues her as his mate. Syreena was raised in isolation and finds it difficult to balance the duty to the lycans with her feelings for Damien; he must convince her of the rightness of their relationship.

Damien is a vampire who knows what he wants and goes after it, although he does make some mistakes along the way. Syreena is strong but not domineering. Ms. Frank does a fantastic job of writing so that the reader can actually feel the intensity of Damien and Syreena's relationship. I experienced many splendid chills down by back while reading this book.

I was slightly disappointed in this book. Overall the book was good but compared to the others in this series, it lacked passion, suspense, excitement, and a good story line. I was even disappointed in the female character. She's getting bossed around by a lady that lives with her man and she doesn't even really stand her ground.

This is the latest in the series that I have read. Each book can stand on it own. They tie together, but each has a different concept for the Nightwalkers. I am really enjoying this series. I can not wait for Noah to come out.

I loved this series and this book was one of my favorites.

Damien is the vampire king and a friend to the demon king. He does not expect that a lyconthrope mean so much more to his existance, and to the vampire world.

My least favorite of Frank's Nightwalkers series. I thoroughly enjoyed Jaz, but Damien and his petulant childish Syreena was a poor story, at least in comparison to the other Nightwalkers stories. I was looking forward to an excellent read on Damien as I thoroughly enjoyed his character within the other novels. It was a huge let down. I've already read book 5 so I know Frank returns to her wonderful writing style.
