Book Reviews of Dark Celebration (Carpathians (Dark), Bk 14)

I truly enjoyed this book. It was a bit of a change from her other work, though still dark. I have not laughed so hard while reading a book, the exchanges between Gregory and Mikhail where really great. I know many readers were disappointed, however I liked that Ms. Feehan was bringing the individual couples together reforming the Carpthian society.

Unlike many others I did not find the book too busy nor did I think there wasn't enough updates on the older characters. I really thought she had a great balance of the older characters and the introduction and expansion of some very interesting and exciting new charachters.

I think this is truely a must read.

I am disappointed in this book. I love most of her earlier books but she is beginning to be repetitive. I understood that she wanted to talk about all of the characters but I think she over extended herself in this book....there is just to much going on to have a wonderful story to sit down to. If the book were longer it might have worked but as it is, I was not impressed

A bit busy with so many characters present from previous books, but not a bad read all-in-all. The main problem I had with this book was the lack of attention paid to each couple or family, but then again, with so many characters, the book would've had to be 800 pages to devote as much attention to them all as they deserved. What I DID like was the fact that this story left the probability of more Carpathian stories wide open. Without naming names, I'll let you know that several bundles of joy will be along in future novels to continue their lines.

I loved this book. I liked seeing what those we've read about are doing and I love that she gives us leads into more books that are coming. I also love the idea of a Christamas reunion, to bring hope to those who haven't found their soulmates. It is a great read!

Loved this book and this series...a must read!

For those who follow the series, this was a wonderful chance to catch up on couples and others. The story line also planted seeds for future stories. And even introduced more information about previously mentioned characters. But the best part is at the end of the book was all the CHOCOLATE recipes submitted by her fans. Absolutely, out of this word :)

Another wonderful book by Chistine Feehan. If you enjoy this series, like I do, then you will definately love this book about the holidays and how the Carpathians celebrate them.

Christine Feehan is my favorite author, so I'm probably a little biased. She did an absolutley fabulous job of bringing all of her characters back together in one book...not an easy thing to do. This book is on to have in your permanent collection!

I really enjoyed this book. It was nice reading about the couples so long after their respective books were done. Finding out how things were for them later. I loved the whole Christmas celebration of the Carpathians. All in all it was an excellent book. No surprise with it being Christine Feehan.

I love all of Christine's Dark series novel but I have to say I wasn't all that please when I read Dark Celebration. I loved that all the characters from previous books have reunited but Mikhail the prince of all Charpatian for me he seemed weaker than in the previous books.

Like always loved the story loved the characters especially Dimitri *drools* is a good read.

Overall I'm a fan of the series so i like it even with the slight disappointment.

This is a great book. I love all of Christine Feehan's books. They are definitely worth reading.

This book plot setting is awesome and it is my fave book of all Carpathian book. Hightly Recommended.

***Note: I bought this book at a book sale so it doesn't have a dust jacket.

Good book! A catch up on what all the Carpathians are doing now!

erotically charged Carpathian tale....

This book will not let you down. Like all her books you can't wait until the other part of this series come out. This is book #14 of the dark series. It left off with 2 more stories after this.

Very nice reunion style book- I enjoyed it

Feehan is the best writer I have ever read. I finished this book in 2 days and was not disappointed. Then again I'm never disappointed with the Carpathian series

A Carpathian Reunion...I could not put it down til the last page!!!

liked the book but I felt too many things going on it felt rather dijointed @times

With her erotically charged Carpathian tales, Christine Feehan has enthralled a legion of fans, captivated by a strangely seductive world and the unforgettable characters-both human and not-who inhabit it. Now she reunites them all in a Dark Celebration.....

After centuries as the prince of the Carpathians, Mikhail Dubrinsky fears he can't protect them for long from their greatest threat: the extinction of their species-a fate that has become the wicked prayer of his enemies. To ensure it, they are devising a scheme to slaughter Carpathian females. But even with his own lifemate, Raven, and their daughter, Savannah, vulnerable to the encroaching evil, Mikhail's hope is not lost...
In this desperate season, Carpathians from around the world are gathering to join their strengths, their souls and their powers to bring light to the darkness. But so too are their adversaries uniting-hunters, vampires, demons, and betrayers- bringing untold dangers into the fold of the Carpathian people.

Now for the first time, borne from the uninhibited imagination of Christine Feehan, all the inhabitants of Carpathian legend are reunited for a celebration of sensual adventure, undying passion and astonishing fantasy - one to remember for a thousand lifetimes.

Great book. Get to see & hear all about the previous Carpathian's we've already met and also meet some new ones. Book ends abruptly...leaves you wanting more. Can't wait for the next one.

While it was intriguing to read about the Carparthians gathering and catch up on old stories, the story was slow and I'm getting pretty bored with the one-note characters.

Great fun seeing all the old players from previou books.

Best Carpathian book so far, great read!

WOnderful!!!!!

Feehan did it again a great book for her fans!
