Anyone read this yet and want to comment? A rumor has persisted in the vampire world of a dark slayer—a woman—who travels with a wolf pack and who destroys any vampire who crosses her path. Mysterious, elusive and seemingly impossible to kill, she is the one hunter who strikes terror into the hearts of the undead. |

Personally, I liked it. I'd probably give it a 4 or 4.5. It's a different spin on the typical Carpathian couple, this time with the female being the warrior and yet the male has a pivotal role as well. Lots of magic, or at least spells cast, in this one. The only down side (in my opinion) was the overuse of Carpathian language bits (with translations), poems, and spells. A little of that goes a long way for me, so I tend to skim those parts. It was interesting seeing Razvan as a likeable, heroic character and I really liked Ivory. Many of the previous characters reappear and the storlyline to solve the problem of miscarriages and infant deaths moves along. |

I am #77 on the WL, so it will be awhile until I read it. Hopefully it will be as good as it sounds! I didn't like the last couple and have hopes for this one. My favorites are the first few books in any series. After that all the books seem alike or the plot and story line get wierd. |

I'm #70 on the WL but I just checked and my library has a copy so I guess I can delete that one. (hey Norma, you'll move up a spot!) I've read the first 3 or 4 of the series and have the rest on my TBR shelf. Does it need to be read in order? |

I think they should be read in order. There is some backstory that will make more sense if you do.
I didn't realize I was #23 on the list, yay! However, the current estimate is 23 weeks, lol Last Edited on: 9/4/09 9:14 AM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

You will get to know the players and the Carpathian way of life if read in order. Thank you Alisa!! Anyone else want to drop out????? I would have bought this book, but I was disappointed with the last books and didn't want to spend the $$$! |

I'd also suggest reading these in order. The development of the characters and the evolving of the backstory (issues the community as a whole faces) will make more sense. |
