Summary

Eleven thousand years ago a god was born. Cursed into the body of a human, Acheron spent a lifetime of shame. His human death unleashed an unspeakable horror that almost destroyed the earth. Brought back against his will, he became the sole defender of mankind.

Only it was never that simple. For centuries, he has fought for our survival and hidden a past he never wants revealed - until a lone woman who refuses to be intimidated by him threatens his very existence.

Now his survival, and ours, hinges on hers, and old enemies reawaken and unite to kill them both. War has never been more deadly...or more fun.

Love in vein: listen to another Dark-Hunter novel.

A super read

This was a massive book, well written but only of interest to those who have read the other Dark hunter books. To the uninitiated I think it would hold little interest. Holter Graham the narrator has a sexy reading voice and so was exceptionally well chosen for this.

My all time fav dark hunter book.

iv always loved the dark hunter series and knew ash had a very interesting past, but wow. when this book came out and arrived on my door step, I literally didn't put it down untill 3days later when I finished it.
and listening to the audio book was even better, the narrator has done a brilliant job, I could and will listen to again and again.

One of the most emotional books of the series

This book, out of all of them is the one that makes me cry. The story of his earlier life, the cruelty and abuse he suffers at the hands of family and friends. He is betrayed many times and still finds himself helpless and alone.

His real mother did was she did to protect him but at the end of the day he has to learn to stand alone.

Beautiful and Heartbreaking

I love Sherrilyn such a brilliant, creative awesome writer I have all the dark hunter series, dream hunter and dead men walking series. I have read this book but wanted to listen to it too and it’s satisfied my need for now until the next dark hunter book is out.
This story is full of twists and turns one minute you will be laughing the next broken hearted and tearful
