Dark Hunter Glee

[dangermousie]

I honestly mean it, this LJ is not turning into some sort of "hot angsty blood-drinkers with a penchant for masochism and human ladies" blog, but

BUT

BUT

BUT

This Tuesday, Acheron is out.

By that, I don't mean that an acquaintance of mine with an unfortunate name has either left jail or came out of the closet.

No, I mean that Sherrilyn Kenyon, the author of the Dark Hunter series, finally, finally, FINALLY did a book about Acheron, the Dark Hunter boss...I thought that would never happen.

SQUEEEEE.

Mad Squee. That's the one Kenyon book I really wanted to read. I wonder if she did follow up with her plan to make it two books. Amazon lists acheron at 700+ pages (whoa) so I don't think so.

Anyway, I am sure it will be cheesy as hell, but that is why I love my Dark Hunter books: full of uber-angsty men and cheese. Yay! This better have a lot of angst, is all I am sayin'. But I have faith it will as I am sure they will go into his past. SQUEE. I am a sick sick girl and am happy to remain so.

See, SMeyer? I don't need my vampires sparkly and virginity-fixated. All I require is some hideous torture, some blood-letting and blood-drinking and some sex :D A pet demon is also a bonus.

I'm actually reading it right now! It's VERY GOOD so far...but SAD. The first 500 pages are ALL backstory.

I WON'T SPOIL, I SWEAR.

I am so jealous! I saw your post on obtaining it earlier (which is what reminded me) and I wish I had the nerve to pull it off.

Spoil? A little? And I LOVE sad in my fiction as long as it has a happy ending.

Hee! Yes! It was worth a shot, I guessed. I can't believe it WORKED. Although rumor has it several WalMart chains are actually selling it on the shelves already, so you could check those out if you're so inclined. ;)

UM...I can spoil a bit! I'm only through like, page 200, but I flipped to the back and read some of him and Tory (you wanted to know the HEA right?), so just let me know what you wanna know and I'll see if I can find out!

I DO know that he gets out of the blood bond with Artie (who is PISSED AS HAYL), and Artie tricks him into killing Tory. It's all very amazing. I'm sad the romance is only 300 pages, but I'm sure it'll read the length of her regular novels, only with, you know. WITH TEN TIMES MORE ASH. *g*

Now all I have to do is talk Husband into going to Wal-Mart. We don't ave any nearby. *weighs fannish desperation against Husband's teasing* Hmmm...

I am totally interested in backstory, so a little would be cool. Pretty please? I don't want to be a pest.

who is PISSED AS HAYL

It's hard to find good boytoys nowadays :)

So, I assume it does have a happy end (duh I guess). Yay! So I assume Tory comes back from the dead? Heee.

I'm sad the romance is only 300 pages

They better have sexing to compensate :)

You're not a pest at all! :)

I'll read on and see what I can dig up...so far it's nothing too interesting to spoil aside from EXTREME PAIN! SADNESS!! I will be back soon, though!

Thank you!

Extreme pain and sadness are good! As long as there is happy sex by the end :P
