Book Description

5 July 2003 Dark Hunter (Book 3)

Talon was once a Celt warrior cursed by his ancient gods. Following the murder of his sister, the dying Talon had made a deal with the goddess Artemis. He had been given one act of vengeance against the clan who betrayed him, in exchange for his soul and his eternal service as a Dark-Hunter. Talon has sworn to fight Daimons and rescue the human souls they've captured. He has never had cause to regret this choice - until he meets Sunshine Runningwolf.

The unconventional Sunshine should be Talon's perfect woman. She is beautiful, sexy and isn't looking for a long-term commitment. But the more time Talon spends in her company the more he starts yearning for dreams of love and family that he buried centuries ago. But loving Sunshine would be dangerous for both of them - Talon is destined never to know peace or happiness while his enemies still seek to destroy him and everyone close to him...

Review

"'Say goodbye to the garlic-hating, crucifix-fearing vampires of old. With her steamy, action-packed Dark-Hunter novels, Kenyon is ushering in a whole different class of night dwellers. These new millennium models are gorgeous... An abundance of hot sex and snappy dialogue keep the plot both accessible and appealing. With its courageous, unconventional characters and wry humor, this fast-moving fantasy will fill the void left by the end of the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" series.' Publishers Weekly" --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Book Description

Kenyon's award-winning Dark-Hunter series offer readers a world full of dark and dangerous heroes, feisty heroines and a richly imagined mythology - utterly unputdownable --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars More Dark-Hunters please! 24 July 2003
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is an excellant book. The story continues from Night Pleasures (Kyrian's story). If anything this is an even better story!

Talon, an amazing Dark Hunter with a tortured past (which Dark Hunter hasn't) but he is so very human & hero material that one can't help but sympathise with him & love him, utterly.

When he was mortal, he loved his wife thoroughly. It is a love that transcends even death. Quote 'Nothing kills that sort of love'by Eros (in this book).

His wife, now reborn as Sunshine reunites with him again as only soulmates can. Together they battles Gods and curses & triumphs. The plot has lots of twists and has kept me glued till the last page.

A new character is introduced: Zared, another tortured soul, oops, I mean, soulless. I can't wait for his story now and will pre order it.

We meet Acheron here again. I love it that you get bits and pieces of Acheron's story in every book... tantalising us with his magnetic character & mysterious past. This book is a must-read even if only for Acheron story...

5.0 out of 5 stars great stuff 5 Jun 2005
Format:Paperback
I sorta tripped over this - you know the feeling nothing to read and decided to give this a try.

Read any of these Dark Hunter novels and leave your sane, analytical part of brain in bed, get rid of anything male, settle down and have a really good read. You might start off thinking Buffy or Blade - but don't worry - you'll soon forget all about them - these are very sexy books.

The men are sooooo sexy it make you wanna weep - yes it's full of vampires and demons and things that go bump, it stretches the imagination more than once, but they are well put together, great characters - and lots of them (means lots more books!!) and, for what it's worth, I thoroughly enjoyed the ones I have read.

Well worth a read - just a shame that they are quite difficult to get hold of!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Read! 4 Sep 2004
By Book Addict TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
TALON is an ancient Celt born of a forbidden union between a Queen and a Druid. Following his parents death at a young age he returns to face the wrath of his mothers clan, hoping they will take in and care for his younger sister. Though his sister is welcomed life for TALON is difficult. Determined to be accepted he becomes a mighty warrior, leading his clan to many victories. His harshness is only balanced by his wife Nynia, a woman he worships and later loses to childbirth. Tricked by his cousin, TALON goes to battle and kills the son of the Celtic Wargod, CAMULUS. Enraged, the God curses TALON, forbidding him to ever love someone or else they will die. Betrayed by his clan TALON is forced to watch them sacrifice his beloved sister before he himself is executed. As his soul cries out in fury he receives an answer - vengeance can be his if he agrees to enter the Goddess ARTEMIS' service. The bargain is struck and another DH is created.

SUNSHINE comes from a rather eccentric family; her father is a Shaman and her mother Starla is rather weird. She is therefore pretty much ok when she meets TALON and starts dreaming of her past life as a woman named Nynia. What she can't understand is if TALON is the reincarnation of her husband, why does he have the same name and look the same in present times? If he's the same man he'd be hundreds of years old and that would be just plain freaky. Though TALON tries to keep his distance due to his curse their relationship blossoms, yet SUNSHINE has reservations. Does he love her or Nynia's soul?

Though the growing romance between the pair is great, I found the secondary story involving evil Gods and ASH's twin brother STYXX completely enthralling. These individuals are intent on freeing the Atlantean Destroyer from her eternal prison, and only the death of the last living Atlantean can accomplish this - ASH. Add ZAREK, VANE and battling Gods from both the Greek and Celtic Pantheons and we have a highly entertaing read. I love the DARKHUNTER series and feel that these books only get better and better. The plots are becoming more intricate and though SK reveals further details of our favourite characters, she always raises even more interesting questions which keep her readers hooked.
