For my Dark Hunter lovers. INTERACTIVE POST

[dark_x_huntress]

So while we eagerly (and in my case desperately) await the release of Bad Moon Rising, I thought we'd just have a lovely chat about the series in general.

How did you find out about/get into the Dark Hunter series? What is your favorite thing(s) about the series? Least favorite?

Who's story are you most excited about and can't wait for? Why?

Have you gotten the Manga? If so, what did you think about it?


I found the series completely by accident. I was looking for a different kind of romance novel all together and someone on romancenovels directed me to a site that listed paranormal romance novel authors. I started choosing authors at random but was becoming discouraged because none of them got my attention. The last author I randomly chose was Sherrilyn Kenyon and BOOM! I was hooked by just the sample that was up at her site. I loved how different the storyline was compared to other books, that each book was part of a bigger story and that the gods and goddesses of different cultures played a large part of ruining/aiding the characters. I loved that Sherri keeps building the mystery around several characters like Ash, Savitar, Nick, and Jaden.

I have to say I'm really curious and excited to read Nick's story, he's so angry, bitter and confused that he's going to need a lot of help to learn to live with what's happened to him and I hope he and Ash will go back to being friends again.

Yes, I've gotten the manga and I love it. Not as much as the books but I think it's a great idea. I've already pre-ordered volume 2.

Remember that you CAN have spoilers in your comments but to keep from spoiling the series for those who aren't caught up, please put a warning in the subject line of your comment.

My mom had already bought and read all of them up until Ash's book and I was looking for something new to read so she gave me the first one and from then on I was hooked. I read through them all and then passed them on to two friends who also love them. My favorite thing about the books is the characters. They're hilarious and feel so real.

I can't wait for Nick's story because he's one of my favorite characters. Everything he's gone through just makes him even more compelling. Besides his future book I'm looking forward to the Chronicles of Nick that Sherri is writing.

I've read the manga and thought it was great. I loved seeing the characters drawn so I can finally stop trying to picture them in my head. I was a little upset that it had been split into two parts because then I had to wait to see Ash and Simi in their cute cartoon forms.

So your mom got you into them? That's so cool! I'm trying to get my mom into them :\

Kyrian looked exactly like I had pictured him in my mind, he's one of my favorite Dark Hunters. I just have such a soft spot for him.

Yeah, we both share a love of supernatural things. We're always swapping new books.

I was pleasantly surprised because that was how I'd pictured him too. He's the first Dark Hunter you meet so of course he'd be the one that everyone will always love. I'm really interested in seeing what the artist thinks Zarek should look like since he's the one that I fell in love with. Maybe that's why I've grown to like Nick so much. They're dark around the edges but soft at heart.

Zarek will be interesting and I want to see Vane, Bride and Wulf as well. After Kyrian, Vane is my favorite. Of course, I can't wait to see what Katra will look like too. That's a long wait though, I wish the wouldn't split the stories in two. It makes it an even longer wait.
