Synopsis
Ever since that moment his
status as a god was revoked by Artemis, Sin has done nothing but plot his
revenge on her. He kidnaps a woman he believes to be the goddess, but she is
Artemis’ servant, Katra. And instead of imprisoning her, Katra captures hi and
refuses to release him until he promises not to seek vengeance on her mistress.
Despite himself, Sin finds himself intrigued by Katra, who is nothing like the
goddess she serves. Granted she’s fierce, but she’s also compassionate and
loyal. However, Sin is not the only enemy Artemis has and it quickly becomes
apparent that he must help Katra save her mistress or the world as we know it
will end.
Thoughts
I love this one, so much
information about Ash, about Artemis.
But more importantly, it’s
about a god no more and his regain to power—or maybe just happiness since it’s
a romance and all, there about happiness more than anything else, aren’t they.
Anyway, it’s actually a
basic story, with bad guys that lose, and yet there story isn’t over yet. Okay,
so I’m not doing a good job at this, am I? It’s about Sin, who use to be a god
before Artemis stole his powers and threw him to earth, ever since then he’s been
fighting off demons, ones that turn their victims into zombie demons like
themselves.
He is always along, not that
it’s anything different for a Dark-Hunter, but still, he was betrayed by
everyone he ever cared for, and all that other good stuff.
Then Katra walks in, a very
old lass that has a good natured mind, and all that with secrets that could see
her feelings for Sin smashed into the ground.
Anyway, they fight the
upcoming evil, and Sin fights his growing love with a woman that looks so much
like her mother—and the one that hurt him the most.
It’s a great book, I really
like it, and it’s one that I go back to the most.
This read: it’s a little unfair for
me to do this as just a re-read, mostly because I’ve read the shit out of the
book—it’s one of my favourite—and it’s the reason that I left the information
above, I just don’t know what else to say. Hell, what I can say that won’t give anything away.
This one is like most. A perky
mostly happy woman and an anguished sad, and afraid of love male who come
together and end with a life.
This one introduces us more
into the Gods world, and Acherons, which is always good because you can’t read
this series and not be a fan of his. There’s a few others that come along, but
as it is he is our ‘series’ love.
I really don’t know what
more to say, but that I have like top five list for this series and it’s in
there, though I’m not sure if it’s before Raven’s book or after—yeah, there
tossing up for place 3 or 4.
You should read it though,
even if you’re only going to pick a few and not get into the whole series. This
one is up there are THE BEST (and I said that in that sing song voice)
