5.0 out of 5 stars Thoroughly enjoyable and surprisingly lighthearted, 21 May 2004
By A Customer
This is the first Emma Holly book I have read and was admittedly dubious about reading a book by a bolder romance author. However, the book is refreshing and creates a deliciously mystical quality that is maintained from beginning to end. The main characters are Ulric and Juliana who form an unlikely alliance; Juliana's attempt to flee from a controlling father and much older fiancee and Ulric's roaming existence stemming from his determination to forget a past love bring them together in an unexpected quest to seek something new.

Ulric's character shows such development as to render him completely irresistible as he progresses from a controlling and dominant individual forged from his position as leader among the upyrs (vampire-like creatures) of Scotland into a more understanding and sypmathetic yet no less dominant character. Juliana's own strength is an undeniable force in the book and she is every much as likeable as Ulric; together they share a very palpable bond that every reader would find envious.

By far the most fascinating aspect of the book is the existence of the upyrs in mountainous caves, protected by ancient Pictish magic and their splendid shape-changing. Holly also brings in the inter-pack rivalry which serves to make all the characters more real and credible and gives the supporting cast a chance to shine in a manner uniquely their own.

Any further books concerning any of the other upyrs would be most welcome if they are anything like the pure magic the author has generated in Hunting Midnight.

1.0 out of 5 stars Over Rated and over hyped, 25 Jan 2005
By A Customer
Yes there were hot sex scenes. Yes it is about the Upyrs, but the story was totally unbelievable and the plot too complex for it's own good.

I could not connect with the characters at all- how can a book be good when you cannot establish any empathy with the Hero or Heroine. I really lost interest in what became of them: take Ulric, the hero. One minute sad and angry looking for his old love Gillian, but suddenly falling for someone else.

I bought this book based on the reviews I had read. Most of the time I use reviews to find 'new' authors. Most reviews are helpful. In this case I feel let down by bad plot, lackluster characters and insipid writing.
