Dark Legend (The Carpathians (Dark) Series, Book 7)
Another installment read, in my vast collection of Christine Feehan novels, and I found myself having a hard time finishing this one. What actually kept me going was my interest in the secondary character, Lucian. And from what I can tell about the next book (his book), I might have more interest in it, than this one
Gabriel and Lucian (twins) were both known as great warriors to the Carpathian Race. Legendary. Lucian, having already succumbed to the darkness (now vampire), and Gabriel (still without a healing lifemate), felt like he was quickly succumbing to the same fate. His only solution was to bind his brother to him and remain under the earth indefinitely in an ancient slumber. Thought to be long dead, Gabriel unexplainably awakens from his resting place. As he rises, he also senses that Lucian (his twin that he has forcibly locked in a restful sleep) is also rising. Problem. Gabriel must hunt and destroy him at all cost, a promise he made to Lucian long ago.
