The sign of a truly brilliant author is that you CAN pick up any book and rather have some understanding of the plot. In this book it seems the only plot is for Ash to constantly get detrailed by other characters which is the only way to make the story move semi forward. I'm in part II now so hopefully the modering story is better than part I.
i love this book ...( 3 weeks ago by christinedonnelly)
i love this book and i'm so glad i bought it..to be honest i was disappointed with some books in the series prior to this one and i actually didn't buy some of the more recent novels because they weren't as good as the the first 5 or 6th novels. now i plan to buy the other books to complete my collection.

This book is so brilliant! You learn so many things about Ash (some of it was very dark) but the insight into the character was amazing.
DAMNIT!! i can't ...( 2 weeks ago by Calyp88)
DAMNIT!! i can't wait till i get a chance to read this novel. i've read the other dark hunter novels and instantly became addicted. hahaha i think i almost fainted when i first discovered that Kenyon was finally going to make a novel about the ever mysterious Acheron. gosh, i love her novels. even her BAD agency novels had me addicted. she rocks!
Ash is in charge of ...( 2 weeks ago by p0oki3bOo)
Ash is in charge of the Dark Hunters. Which if you read any of the other books, you'd know why theres vamps, demons, gods, goddesses, dream chasers, dream hunters, and all that other good stuff. And it is called FICTION, thats why sherrilyn kenyon HAS an imagination;) plz dont dis the book JUST cause YOU didnt enjoy it. Its rather.. better than reading GREEK MYTHOLOGY non-fiction.
Yes, yes .. so I ...( 2 weeks ago by mpca66)
Yes, yes .. so I must read book #1 - got it. I like Acheron's character, I do, but .. I stand by my comment; the vamp/god story line is strange.
And one more thing: Greek Mythology is fiction.

just finished acheron this weekend. highly recommended.

Youll get the hang of the whole vamp/god thing. And if Greek Mythology is fiction, why do they make us study/learn it in school? O_o

aww... i really, REALLY want to read this!!!!! but i have to read all of the other ones first. that's okay though, because so far all of sherri's book are very good. <3

i don't know if this is really a dark-hunter novel, but i wasn't a fan of fantasy lover. it was just boring. like an ordinary romace novel. i have been happy with all of the other ones i've read other than that one though.
We are taught the ...( 2 weeks ago by mpca66)
We are taught the classics in school so that we have a connection with the past. If we only read current fiction, like Acheron, you would never know where the gods originally came from. It's obvious that Ms. Kenyon has read greek literature or she wouldn't be able to write her books.
If you want to read about a greek hero, I would suggest picking up a copy of The Odyssey.
The Odyssey. *runs ...( 2 weeks ago by p0oki3bOo)
The Odyssey. *runs away* O_O I was SUPPOSED to read it in the 10th grade. but, c'mon.. i couldnt even read 1 page of it. If its FICTION how can there be a past to it? Where did the information come from? Did someone just one day conjure a story, and say.. "oh lets teach this, and this about a god/goddesses.. oooYAY!" thats ridiculous. But then, obviously Sherrilyn Kenyon had to get her info bit frm somewhere. so i guess its part, Study & Imagination.
---You have ur opinions & i respect them =]
Part two is much ...( 2 weeks ago by kura6754)
Part two is much better than part one. I also found part one to be kind of bleh. But I read my way through it cause I love Sherrilyn Kenyon's work, and of course Ash is just awesome. ;) I've read the second part a lot more, and never touched the first part ever again. It's just the first part I don't like. And she even explains it in the authors note.

I know what you mean!! This book was irresistible!! I read it in just under two days.

Ok, finished the book and I give it 6 stars out of 10. I honestly hated Part I. 300 pgs of Ash getting tortured is a bit much.
Part II was quite good and I'm really happy with the ending.

Part one was a bit of a drag. Just couldn't wait to get to part two.

Okay so one day ...( 1 week ago by DarkSeeress)
Okay so one day many years ago i happened to pick up a book for 1 dollar at a library book sale. It happened to be kyrian's story and from then i was hooked. I didnt even bother finding out what the other stories were about. As long as it was dark hunter I bought it. Up until that book with the reporter. I dont know it just was like Bleh then the one with the dream hunter and the boat? WTF? Anyway I just about DIED when i heard Acheron's book was coming out. OMG I still havent bought it yet...
But You betcha that ...( 1 week ago by DarkSeeress)
But You betcha that I will read it. Its a little expensive but a few days ago I snuck into Chapters and read the first few chapters up to page 48. Ya i book marked the page so i know where i am. I also snuck a pick at the back of the story cause im super anxious. I just cant wait to hold and own it. I talked my friend into reading Valerius's story and now hes hooked too so we're reading it. After Sins story i want to read about the skotos Xerpher? (Bad with names) seems like his story will rock.
The trailer was ...( 1 week ago by wickedn355)
The trailer was better than the book. Trust me. Part I and Part II were like two different stories. Ash's personality didn't remain consistent at all. And the book ended badly b/c it was rushed. It's like *ding (with a wand)* you can read now - *ding* you can read now - *ding* you're a god now. *ding* the battle is over now. I know Sherrilyn had 10years to write this so I was surprised how the book was rushed.
Well i dont think ...( 1 week ago by theaarguelles)
Well i dont think its rushed. Actually i think the first part draged on. I dont like reading Ash suffer like that! The second part, this is a series so i can assume that more will come in the upcoming books. Its just the way series are. The in-between, thats up to our imagination how he became what he is now. If sherri ditailed all that, this will be a thousand pages long!

I. Love. It. Its the best in the series so far! I realize we all have our preferences but hey what can I say? I just LOVE it! It works for me! I'm glad I had an insiders peek into whats going on in his mind. Who would have though he suffered insecurities like that? Childhood trauma are realy hard to let go. I cried when he was being tortured and I laughed when he was making a fool of himself around Tory! I hope I will get to hear more of the two of them in the next books. Can't wait!

I loved this book i waited a long time for it and i wasn't disapointed in the least. My husband bought it for me and asked me to take my time with it because i read very quickly... i took my time and spread it out over two days. I have since read it twice more.
And one more thing: Greek Mythology is fiction.
If you want to read about a greek hero, I would suggest picking up a copy of The Odyssey.
Part II was quite good and I'm really happy with the ending.
