This is awesome! They've put the paranormals I love to read so much into my other great love...MANGA! For those of you not familiar with manga, it's a graphic novel, much like a thick comic book. So if you don't care of comic books or graphic novels, this is not for you.
From back of book:
He is Riordan...Carpathian male. Immortal. Seer. Now trapped and caged, his honor is compromised by his captors. They're in his mind. They're in his blood. But not one of them can withstand his desire for revenge.
She is Juliette...A beautiful activist devoted to the liberation of animals from the foul and humid confines of a secret jungle lab. What she has stumbled upon is unexpected - a prisoner like no other she has ever seen. Or touched.
She will release him from his bonds. He will release her from her inhibitions. Each has a voracious appetite that must be sated.

A fun manga version of Feehan's short story. Note, if you are looking for this is novel format, the story was originally published in the anthology Hot Blooded.
That aside, this is a good story for those familiar with the Carpathian series, and not too too racy. However, if you don't know about the Carpathians, this does not offer a lot of background, and may be confusing.

I wish I had read the reviews regarding this book. It's like a comic book, not what I was expecting.

Well, this genre/format is not my preference. Story line was minimal. If you like graphic novels, you will like this book.

Honestly I grew up loving comics like Richie Rich and Casper the Friendly Ghost and thought I would like this too but this is terrible. The characters look so much alike from the profile that it is hard to tell them apart and the little bit of story there is with it reads like "Me Big Strong Tarzan, U Little Jane, Me Taking UR Blood Now, Yes Please I So Dizzy, Now UR Mine"
So my advice to all the Carpathian fans who are looking at this as an interesting addition to the series "Save your money and time. It is not worth it"
