'An epic tale of family drama, daring warriors, monumental battles,
and unwavering love' Fresh Fiction 'Spectacular' GR Review Born
before man recorded time, I lived for thousands of years believing
myself to be something I'm not. Someone I'm not. Lied to and
betrayed by gods, Daimons and Dark-Hunters, I've struggled to find
my way in a world where I've been cursed since the moment I was
prematurely ripped from my mother and planted into the womb of an
innocent woman who thought me her son. Trained as a slayer and
predator, I learned to fit in and stay low. To become a tool for
evil. Until I was sent to kill the one woman I couldn't. My
hesitation cost her her life. Or so I thought. In an act of
betrayal that makes all the others pale in comparison, I've learned
that this world is an illusion and that my Phoebe still lives. Now
I will have to travel into the very pits of Hades to try and save
her, even as everyone around me attempts to steal what little soul
I have left. There's only one person at my back and I'm not sure I
can trust her either, for she was born of an enemy race. Yet
sometimes the road to redemption is one that singes us to our very
core. And if I fail to find the answers I need to save Phoebe, more
than just my wife will die. We will lose the world. Both human and
Daimon. What are readers saying about STYGIAN? 'A master
storyteller' 'Be prepared for a thrilling and addictive experience'
'EPIC' 'Has me so excited for the next book in the series!'
'Gripping, exceptionally well-written'

'Brisk, ironic and relentlessly imaginative' Boston Globe Born the
beautiful daughter of a poor cobbler, Valynda Moore learned early
in life that beauty was its own form of a curse in a world ruled by
ruthless men who would use any means to take what they wanted. And
the stakes were never higher than the night when one man went so
far as to steal her very soul and condemn her to live eternity in
the body of a living straw doll. Now she has one chance to be human
again. To have her soul restored to a flesh-and-blood body. But
only if she betrays everyone she holds dear, and breaks every vow
she's made. To her, the choice is simple. She'd never hurt her
friends. Besides, what use does she have for a human body? Until
her enemies use the one lure that even she cannot resist. Now, like
Eve in the Garden of Eden, Valynda has a choice. She can be
selfless and alone in her cold, doll's body for eternity. Or she
can pluck the one piece of fruit she's always longed to taste and
become human in the process. But there's just one small catch. Not
only will her friends pay the price for her humanity, she will damn
all of humanity in her place. The latest gripping instalment in
this sensational, rip-roaring Historical Fantasy series, set in the
Dark-Hunter World from #1 NYT bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon,
'arguably one of the most in-demand and prolific authors in
America' (Publishers Weekly) 'Kenyon boldly goes where no author
has gone before and claims yet another genre as her own. [She is] a
publishing phenomenon . . .' Publishers Weekly
'Epic adventures, fantastical creatures and an epic romance. What's
not to love?' Fortress of Books 'Angels. Demons. Sirens. Goddesses.
The undead. Pirates. Mermen. Dragons. This book has it all!'

In a world where the League and its assassins rule, where betrayal
and treachery are everywhere . . . the only survivors are those
ones who are . . .
BORN OF SHADOWS
For Caillen Dagan, a defiant soldier of fortune, survival isn't a
right, it's a brutal daily battle. Moving through the Ichidaian
universe like a wraith, his brushes with the law and death are
legendary. But when an act of rare heroism reveals his hidden
birthright, he's forced into a world much more dangerous and
cold-hearted than the bloody streets where he was raised-one of
obscene wealth and lethal politics.
Ferocious and determined, Desideria serves as an official bodyguard
for her queen. Born of questionable genetics, she will do anything
to prove herself worthy of the weapons she carries and the position
she's won by combat. But when she uncovers a ruthless plot to
assassinate the queen and overthrow her country's government,
Desideria is caught in the crosshairs.
With assassination contracts out on both of them, Caillen and
Desideria must learn to fight together or die alone. And if they
fail, their governments will fall into the hands of an unimaginable
evil.
Retribution
Sherrilyn Kenyon
Orphaned as a child and raised by vampires, Abigail Yager lives
for one purpose, and one purpose only: To avenge the deaths of
vampires everywhere. To destroy the merciless Dark-Hunters who
stalk and kill her adoptive race. But most of all, to find the one
man responsible for brutally murdering her family: the
ex-gunslinger Jess "Sundown" Brady...
""""
Resurrected from death by a vengeful Greek goddess, Jess must
hunt and destroy the creature who's assassinating Dark-Hunters. The
last thing he expects to find is a human face behind the
killings--and especially one resembling the human who'd murdered
him centuries ago. Jess knows he's not the one who slaughtered
Abigail's parents. But now he must convince her of his
innocence--and cross the abyss between human and vampire--before
the darkest of powers rises to destroy them both...
No.1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon returns
with Shadow Fallen, a brand-new entry in her Dream-Hunter series.
For centuries, Ariel has fought the forces of evil. Her task was to
protect the souls of innocent mortals when they die. Captured by a
powerful sorceress, she is transformed into a human who has no
memory of her real life or calling. And is plunked into the middle
of the Norman invasion of England. Cursed the moment he was born
with a "demonic deformity," Valteri wants nothing of this earth
except to depart it and will do his duty to his king until then.
When a strange noblewoman is brought before him, Valteri realizes
he has met her before. . . in his dreams. When others come for her,
bringing with them preternatural predators, he is faced with a
destiny he had no idea was waiting; one he wants no part of. The
truth is that Valteri isn't just a knight of William the Conqueror.
He is the son of one of the deadliest powers in existence, and if
he doesn't restore Ariel to her place, she is not the only one who
will be in peril. The world itself hangs in the balance, and he is
the necessary key to hold back the powers of evil. But only if he
can find a way to work with the woman who stands for everything in
the universe he hates.

Zombies, demons, vampires, shapeshifters--another day in the life of Nick Gautier--and those are just his friends. But now that he's accepted the demon that lives inside him, he must learn to control it and temper the very emotions that threaten the lives of everyone he cares for. Something that's hard to do while trying to stay off the menus of those who want his head on a platter. And no one wants him more than the dark gods who created his race. Now that they know where he is, they will stop at nothing to reclaim him. And without knowing it, Nick has just embraced the one person he should never have trusted. The one person who will hand him over to his enemies to get back the life they lost.
Nick has finally accepted his fate, now he must learn to defy his destiny, and the dark, deadly forces that will stop at nothing to destroy everyone he loves so that they can again return to the world of man and own it, in the next Chronicles of Nick novel, Instinct, from #1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon.
Zarek's Point of View:
Dark-Hunter: A soulless guardian who stands between mankind and those who would see mankind destroyed. Yeah, right. The only part of that Code of Honor I got was eternity and solitude.
Insanity: A condition many say I suffer from after being alone for so long. But I don't suffer from my insanity-I enjoy every minute of it.
Trust: I can't trust anyone...not even myself. The only thing I trust in is my ability to do the wrong thing in any situation and to hurt anyone who gets in my way.
Truth: I endured a lifetime as a Roman slave, and 900 years as an exiled Dark-Hunter. Now I'm tired of enduring. I want the truth about what happened the night I was exiled-I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Astrid (Greek, meaning star): An exceptional woman who can see straight to the truth. Brave and strong, she is a point of light in the darkness. She touches me and I tremble. She smiles and my cold heart shatters.
Zarek: They say even the most damned man can be forgiven. I never believed that until the night Astrid opened her door to me and made this feral beast want to be human again. Made me want to love and be loved. But how can an ex-slave whose soul is owned by a Greek goddess ever dream of touching, let alone holding, a fiery star?
