Wow, read that fast. Only two and a half nights, didn't even have time to write a part-way through review. I looked through some of the other reviews and I'm surprised by how many people hated it, "Her worst book" etc. While I did have a problem with the horrible, violent way he changed her, that...
In hindsight this ‘new’ installment in the Dark/Carpathian series by Christine Feehan reminds me of the bodice-rippers of the eighties and the beginning of the nineties. You know, the he-heates-her-but-loves-her-yet-he-hates-her-for-making-him-fell-while-she-loves-him-no-matter-what-he-says-or-does-...

This is one of the few Carpathian books that I haven't given 5 stars to. I enjoyed the book, but I miss the interplay between the other characters as well. The book was so centered on Zacarias and Marguerita that I think it just got too intense in their world.
Zacarias is exactly behaving like the very old vampire that I want and expect to find. This hardened hunter is so into the kill or be killed mentality that he is in essence a predator. He takes the colorless, emotionless existance to a new level. A Carpathian that old is pretty much set in his ways....
