Synopsis
Dream-Hunter Lydia has been charged
with the most dangerous of missions: to find the missing god of dreams before
he betrays the secrets that could kill her and her kind. What she never expects
is to be taken prisoner by the Nether Realm’s most vicious guardian.
Seth’s time is running out. If he
can’t hand over the entrance to Olympus, his own life and those of his people
will be forfeit. No matter the torture, Seth hasn’t been able to break the god
in his custody. Now there’s Lydia. She isn’t just guarding the gates of
Olympus, she’s holding back one of the world’s darkest powers. If she fails, an
ancient curse will haunt the earth once more and no one will be safe. But evil
is always seductive....
my Thoughts (review)
What can I say... really, I’m a
Kenyon fan, especially when it comes to her Dark-Hunter series, and this one
didn’t disappoint. Not one bit.
A demi-god who has never been seen
by anyone finally gets what he’s wanted most in the whole world, and even more
so, something that he never thought he would get or be able to keep. And really
the battle for his hope isn’t going to be easy, both body and soul.

This is made a little easier because
Lydia isn’t without her own powers, but.... actually to go into her might say
too much. But she’s an amazing woman, hardened slightly by her own history;
she’s still got a soft side to her. And even with her softness she’s hard as
rock, ready to hurt anyone that hurts the ones she’s given her heart to. she’s
brave and strong, and loving, caring, with a bit of stupidity that’s put her
into the situation in the first place—though really can you call it stupidity
when one meets there soul mate from it?
Seth on the other hand, isn’t really
my type of man, I don’t think. he’s a little too soft, even when he’s angry or
being mean, you understand it to a point that you get as pissed as Lydia does
at all that have done this to him. But truly, right in his being, he’s a soft
little cookie that only wants to be loved, and I don’t mean this is a bad way,
but there’s something very soft about Seth, something that make you want to cry
just because he doesn’t understand anything about tenderness.

It’s truly, like all Kenyon’s
others, a beautiful book, if you don’t mind ready heartbreaking stories of love
and war.
