Book Reviews of Elijah (Nightwalkers, Bk 3)

This is by far my favorite of the series. I'll admit, Jacob (book 1) didn't blow me away. But it was enough for me to read Gideon (book 2), which I also loved.

I haven't enjoyed a series this much since I discovered the Black Dagger Brotherhood series by JR Ward and the Midnight Breed series by Lara Adrian.

I think JF does an excellent job with the love scenes. They do go on for pages and pages (as mentioned by another member) but I think the author does a great job of keeping them hot and original. You'd think writing about that much sex, she'd run out of ideas.

Anyway, hope this review encourages someone else to give this series a try.

Great characters, interesting ideas, just the writing gets muddled and the love scenes seems to go on for pages and pages.

Though I liked Elijah for the most part, the Nightwalker series is starting to lose my interest a little. I found Siena very annoying and felt that Elijah could have had a better mate. I understood her reasoning to deny what was happening, but it was too extreme. The romances remain sappy and apparently I prefer a little more grit to paranormal romances. I much prefer to read about the actual plot of the book instead of the romance. Surprisingly, (for me, at least), I find the romances distracting and I wish these books were urban fantasy instead. I think Frank does a pretty good job with the world-building and I wish that would be her main focus.

This book was okay, the beginning was better than the middle/end where a lot of characters from other books kept popping in. Could have used a bit more plot, not so much attack/heal/attack/heal etc - I started skimming rather than enjoying the book.

Frank is awesome as a storyteller. She pulls you in at the first chapter and keeps interested until the end. Great read.
Totally different line of thought from the overabundance of vampire books out there.

The first book in this series (Jacob) is one of my favorite books of all time - unfortunately each subsequent book has been weaker than the first. While I love the storyline, this one, Elijah, has a rather weak storyline. It just seems to be one sex scene after another. I hope Damien is better since it is a different Nightwalker group (vampires) and should have more dynamic interplay between the characters.

Just as good as book's 1&2

To begin I really love this series as a whole. While I did not hate this book, I don't believe it lives up to the same standard as those that came before or after.

Elijah, the Captain of the Demon warriors, falls in love with Siena, the Queen of the Lycanthrope people. More, they become Imprinted, soul mates, with no power to resist the forces pushing them together. Despite this, Siena resists, not wanting to risk her throne or her people--or allow herself to be vulnerable to Elijah.

It's hard not to love Elijah-he's funny and sexy. He is willing to do just about anything to keep Siena as his own.

The world Frank has built remains rich and enthralling. Her variety of characters both old and new, including menacing villains, keep the book from becoming overly dull.

In my opinion this book was not nearly as romantic as it could have been. I found Siena's resistance to be annoying, even insulting, rather than understandable and sexy. More, the compromise they come up with seemed equally unfair to Elijah.

At this stage in the series I expected something very different from the first two books. However, it is very much like the first two in plot structure and tone. That's not entirely a bad thing, but if you read them back to make you may find it boring. Damien, book four, does a better job at adding variety.

If you have begun this series and enjoyed it so far I recommend continuing, because it is well worth getting through one average read to get to the much more fulfilling ones-Damien and Noah.

This was just ok for me. It did not grab me like the other 2 books did, don't get me wrong there were good & bad things, and it was great in the beginning and towards the end. I would definetly say if you are reading the series you should read this, because lots of things happen that lead to the next in line, however just know it WON'T be one of those you can't put down.

Very good book! :) Love this series! :)

Best book out of the series. It show how opposites attract and you can just picture him. He is yummy!!!

This series has been excellent. This book was no exception.

Great book!

This is the best so far. I'm looking forward to reading Damien.
