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.

I picked up Arik's story in the hospital store before I was induced and kept it as a 'break this in case of boredom emergency' book. Though I did skim (I didn't have much time), I really couldn't put it down! And so it began. My favorite book is Dance with the Devil and my least favorite...(don't kill me) is probably Ash's book. Maybe I'm still bitter, feeling slighted by the length of the second part. Still, I should read it again and see if I like it better.

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

Probably one of the newer, 'grayer' characters, like the demons. I want to see more of Asmodeus, he's funny. And, of course, Simi and Nick. Jaden and Jared will but fun I'm sure, but I'm worried that I'll be disappointed (and don't know how many more torture scenes I can sit through).

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

I would like to get the manga, but first, I'd like to know, is it a new character, or is the manga redoing one of the older stories? I'd love the former, actually. Love to see some of my fav darkhunters in color, or black and white.

The manga is actually a redoing of Kyrian's story. It's awesome, if you like, I can send you a copy as a thank you gift. Just let me know.

That would be totally awesome of you. We could do a trade. I think Dark Side of the Moon is the ones I have signed, must check. Maybe the Dark Hunter Companion.
