Nick wakes up in another realm with no powers and as per usual everyone chasing him and wanting to kill him. People he's always known are not the same. Heavy messaging about peoples choices having a huge effect on their future.

Still with the repeated stupid phrases. New one? "There's only one road to heaven, but an entire highway to hell!"

*sigh*

AND, I thought this was it, done, over...finally I'd get my answers and be able to move on! No.Such.Luck. Apparently there is another book coming out NEXT MARCH! Please! Like I'm going to remember this series a year from now.

Whatever. ( )

I have read all of this series and love all of the books. I am from Louisiana and visit New Orleans often. Sherrilyn Kenyon's description is right on, however like most writers trying to write with a southern accent has a little difficulty. The book keeps you on your toes and I like that she adds back history on the Dark Hunters as well. I also read her Dark Hunters collection so it is interesting to see how Nick is starting to change those later books. ( )

4.5 stars! SQUEE!!!
I loved this book so so much. I was extremely hesitant to start this since the last book left off the way it did. I mean, I loved the Nick I've been reading about for the past few books, I don't want to read about some Normal Nick (even if it IS the same Nick, but trapped in another Nick's body)...I was so devastated at the end of that book, so I didn't want to start this one, I just couldn't bear it. I hate it when good books, spend so many novels building up the characters and the atmosphere and all that, and suddenly something happens, or one of the characters does something stupid and it pretty much deletes everything I've learned about and come to love. Anyways, after many, many, many, months, maybe years (okay, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration...), I finally thought I was ready to face this book, and I'm so, so glad I did. I didn't regret anything! Well, maybe I do regret the part about not reading this awesome book sooner. This author is AWESOME and I shouldn't have doubted her, at all. She is THE BEST, and I loved every single page of this book, and it was just...awesome. (I used awesome a lot, I know, I know...)

WHAT I LIKED:
The humour. Oh my gosh, I loved how funny this book was, it had me laughing out loud, and if there were people near me, I'm sure I'd be getting some awkward stares. Everything else was good too, but it was the witty and cutting remarks, and the sarcastic jokes that the characters in the book made that was really the highlight.

Nick. Of course I had to have a section dedicated to my precious Nick. Besides his awesome sense of humour, I loved his goodness. He is the Malachai. The worst, most powerful, and evil demon alive. And yet, he is so kind, so compassionate, so loving. He treats his enemies with a firm, but gentle hand, even though those enemies have treated his with nothing but cruelty. And he can make even the most dire situations happier and lighter. Nick is just such a GOOD GUY, and there are no words to describe how awesomely awesome he is. No words. At all. Oh, gosh, I do envy Kody, she is so lucky to have someone like Nick as a boyfriend.

WHAT I DISLIKED:
I can't really think of anything to dislike about this book, but hmm...if I had to pick something, I think I'd choose the super long chapters. I'm a fan of reading short chapters, even if the book itself is long, reading short chapters just seems to make the book fly by that much faster. But actually, the length of the chapters in this book is such a minor thing.

All in all, this book was fantabulous and I absolutely can't wait for the next one. ( )

Gah! How many books are there going to be in this series until the the two series meet? I want grown Nick now! ( )
