How did you find out about/get into the Dark Hunter series?
An on-line friend wrote a FF story that involved one of the characters being a vampire. It renewed my love for vampires so we got to talking about vampire ff, mangas, and novels. I've always loved vampires since way back, but had never read any stories or books with them in it. She rec me some books/authors for vampire novels she enjoyed and the DH series was one of them. She said I could probably skip the first book, since there wasn't much in that about vampires, but the future stories were. I read Fantasy Lover anyway (twice) and was hooked and started buying the books. But I got sidetracked by another series and didn't move on to the next book right away. I made it back to the series and started really reading them after I found out about BMR book signing in the next city over. Since I'm going to the book signing, I decided I needed to try and finish the books to be ready to read BMR. I'm currently 1/2 finished w/Dark Side.
What is your favorite thing(s) about the series? Least favorite?
Fav thing (besides the hot smex :) is the Greek background of some of the characters. I read a Greek mythology book in grade school and the stories were so fascinating. I fell in love w/Greek mythology, even though I haven't read anything else since then. Least fav is that some of the characters are prejudiced against each other. And I know there needs to be some animosity to keep the story interesting, it kinda hurts to read the hurtful things that they did/do to each other. Sometimes to their own family.
Who's story are you most excited about and can't wait for? Why?
I'm still behind in reading the series, so I'm eager to get to Ash's book to find out what the whole deal is behind who and what he is. There have only been hints in the books so far leading up to his story.
Have you gotten the Manga? If so, what did you think about it?
I got it the day it release. I'm a HUGE manga fan so I was excited. And even though the ones I normally buy are 18+, I LOVED it. The drawings were outstanding. Kyrain is drawn so hawt! *drools* I only wished the whole story was finished there instead of having to wait for the next part of it. I can hardly wait for the next one. :)
