The latest entry in the Castle of Dark Dreams. Like the others it's fun - the landscape peopled with unusual characters with strange problems and a sense of humor. Sparkle Stardust and Ganymede reprise their cosmic troublemaker roles although Sparkle is undergoing an identity crisis - in her attempts to swim out of the shallows of her character she actually goes shopping at WalMart. We have a new bunch of hunky guys [loosely speaking:] to replace Eric, Brynn and Conall. There's Bain [demon lord:], Edge [cosmic troublemaker specializing in death:] and of course our hero, Dacian, a nightfeeder with severe anger management issues. Tuarin [Dacian's brother and misguided villain from Wicked Nights:] and Eric [the hero from Wicked Nights and a friend of Dacian's in the past:] both show up along with their wives.
The heroine is Cinn - a botanist with a penchant for developing truly weird plants and the source of the sex energy feeding Jessica and Sweetie Pie plants in the previous books - is hired by Sparkle to devlop more plants of interest. At least that's what the contract she signed says... But why is there a mostly naked man with fangs chained to the wall and some weirdo claiming to be a wizard in the hall? And then there are the talking cats...
Sparkle explains: "So here's the deal. Yes, vampires do exist, along with lots of other nonhumans. Edge and I are cosmic troublemakers. My specialty is creating sexual chaos throughout the universe. Edge is the cosmic troublemaker in charge of death. You can guess what he does. Bain is a demon, and yes, Holgarth is a real wizard." She held up her hand to stop Cinn from interrupting. "Let me finish."
Cinn had no intention of interrupting. No way could she talk with her jaw dragging on the floor.
And that's before she finds out there's a very pissed off Celtic goddess after her...

A good night's read
28 Oct 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I read this book in one night. It was an easy read for me.
I have read Nina Bang's other "Castle of Dark Dreams" books as well.
I enjoyed seeing Eric ,Sparkle,Ganymede, Edge, and the
other characters again. The plant idea was very different.
I do wish there had been more plot line for the characters,
Cinn and Dacian. I could have used more gritty fights too.
But, Nina Bangs has me for an auto-read every time.
Her Castle of dreams series is a fun place to visit.
Wish there was a real Hotel, where wishes come true.
I would sign up in a heart beat.

Fun and entertaining book.
22 Oct 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Read this one in about 5 hours. I found it to be fun and entertaining. Enjoyed the development of the talking plants. I was wanting more details of the final battle going on in the castle. It (battle) centered mainly on Cinn, but I found myself interested in more than the going ons of her entourage. Outside of the ending, I would like to read another one book about Cinn, her vampy man and Vince the talking plant:)

Fluff for the brain!
30 Nov 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I bought this book on a whim before a 5 hour flight. I wanted something lighthearted, easy to read and fantasy-based. This book delivered on those promises. I remained engaged the entire time and I developed interest in the characters. Now, this book isn't FANTASTIC but it's exactly what I was looking for at the time. I just wanted to forget about everything around me. I would've liked to seen more character development because I did feel like I was missing out on back-story. When I bought the book I checked to make sure it wasn't part of a series, but maybe it is? The ending had a lot of potenial to be cooler, but all-in-all - this was a good read!
