Best book I have ever read, hands down. This book cover is proudly tattoo’d on my right shoulder blade. From the very first book in the Dark Hunters series, there are events and facts dropped, and throughout the entire series everything that happens builds up to Acheron. If anything were different in any of the books, then Acherons book wouldn’t have worked out as flawlessly as it did. Sherrilyn Kenyon is a flat out genius, the way she made each book completely satisfying on its own, but if you read them in order you see that they are perfect stepping stones. I can’t imagine any book every topping Acheron. I could gush about it forever!!

I absolutely Love the book Acheron.
The first part was sad and heartbreaking. I can’t believe what he had to endure.
All I can say now is I’m glad he found someone who truly loves him. Someone who he clearly Loves as well. I wish I was her one day I’ll find my Acheron hehe

All I can say is….I hear ya

Ash was always so untouchable, and completely single that it was fun to “crush” on him…yup. Taken…I hated it too! LOL!

Ok. So I find myself not wanting to finish this book. Not that I don’t love it so far, and I LOVE reading about Ash (though I found myself shedding tears and constantly yelling at this human father, brother and sometimes Artemis for their ignorance and stubborness…ARGH!!) But its so sad to know that once I finish, Ash is going to be a taken man Its sooooo silly, but I remember disliking Bella so much for taking Edward away. I hate how I get so attached to characters. LOL. Not only that, but can the following books top this one? ::SIGH:: Onward and upward (hopefully).

@ Thu
Yes , it will make you cry – a lot! It will change your life and will give you a different perspective about pain, sacrifice and love… It will hunt you for days. I’ve read this book a year ago but everything is still fresh for me.

I guess the only thing that I’m thankful for Tory’s character is the fact that at least now I could sleep at night knowing Acheron has someone beside him and someone to confide with. That’s it.
Although I still think I could make him happier.

How I’m gonna cope if I’m ash? After everything that has happened beyond my will? It led me to think…
How can you not fight for something, regardless how ridiculous it may seem, and not try to do things that are deprived from you to do (that you deserve). Even it would cause you to be beaten? If I were in his place, I would think that whatever I do, I would be beaten anyway, so why not break the rules to experience a slight happiness. At least even for just that moment that I will be able to break free. We need to remember this is a boy who wasn’t raised from a family. Even regular beggars have a family to teach them how to ask for alms. Regular slaves who has another slave to tell them how their master sucks. Regular prisoners who has cellmates to accompany them through the darkness of the night. He has no one. No idea how the world works outside the bedroom.

LOL!!! Yes stupid Tory!!! Why her!? Grrrrr!! (joke!! she ended up being an interesting heroine, but I did love that comment of yours).

I too, found the Artemis/Acheron relationship interesting, and while at times I hated her, I found myself sad for her too, so I get it

The first part of the book was really tough to digest. The pain and the abuse. You will feel degraded with him as you read along. It took me months before I could read back the 1st part to confirm some details. (I need to master it for Dark hunter Quizzes online  ) For the 2nd part I wasn’t that amused by it, maybe I’m a little bias, (there are personal feelings involve you know) maybe if they could have edited Tory out that would really satisfy me. 
As I usually expressed I’m an Acheron and Artemis loyalist. Maybe if I were given the chance request changes in the story, I would have made some kind of turn around on Artemis’s character. Since it was released after Devil May Cry, And certain REVELATION that binds their relationship even more is released. I would have made a scenario where Artemis has to fight for Acheron and Katra. “You and me against the world thing”. That will bind them back together. Where finally, Artemis will be proud and be vocal about being Acheron’s lover and they would finally walk hand and hand in public.
On a second thought if they could have made Tory’s character a little stronger. With powers equivalent to him I would have accepted it more…
but nahhh I don’t think so… It’s just between me and Artemis I could accept. :-):-) Case closed.
