Wow, how does one review an 836 page book that is so dark & vile & depraved & depressing, that I think it only had about 40 "happy" pages in it's entirety?!?
I can't really say I liked this book because as I already mentioned, it was REALLY sick & twisted. I am starting to wonder about the sanity of Sherrilyn Kenyon's mind.
However, she threw some major plot/character changes in at the very very end--and if I hadn't read this, the next Dark-Hunter book wouldn't make much sense. So I guess I'm glad I read it.
I will definitely have nightmares & be haunted by this one. You thought "Acheron" was a tough, emotional read? Nah...it was rainbows & unicorns compared to "Styxx." That's all I can say about it.

There are three sides to everything, yours, theirs and the truth. Well...Styxx's book is his version and part of the truth...TWISTED! Ash's book pales as the perversions and sickkos come from every place. This guy can't catch a break at all.
I liked it but at the same time I had to read it in chunks due to the content and treatment of Styxx (Very emotional for me). Like a car accident, it's horrible but you look anyway. The end has an interesting twist (I was like REALLY??)and sets up the next book.
I don't want to give the story away...New Characters/Pantheons made my head swim a bit. Justice is finally served!
If you are a Dark Hunter fan, I would read this.

Yes, Styxx's story was very heartbreaking. Just like Acheron's story, there was plenty of times I was in tears. But also like his brother, it lets you know what he has endured and the kind of person he is. I am looking forward to the next book in this series!
