Acheron (Dark-Hunter, Book 12)

I don't think I can elaborate on this anymore than the other reviews. I just know that it was a emotional experience for me, I cried and cried, then laughed and rejoiced all for one character. I don't think that I have ever done that with another book. I know some people didn't like the first part, but it made brought alot of things into perspective with the whole series.

Loved it!

ITS ABOUT TIME HE GETS TO BE HAPPY. FOREVER HOW LONG OR SHORT IT WILL LAST.

Oh my did I lose some sleep over this book of all the dark hunter book most of which I have enjoyed this was by far the most unputdownable.I cried so much in the beginning but fell head over heals in love with Acheron an wanted my revenge on all who hurt him.The second half of the book was even better what a great story teller Sherrilyn is Thank you

I thought this book was great, but perhaps the first half could have been trimmed down by about 100 pages. Ms. Kenyon had a lot to live up to in telling us Acheron's story and she dows a wonderful job. All the back history was extemely well developed, but I think a little bit of editing could have gone a long way. Just in case we didn't pick up that Archeron suffered before becoming a "god" we are repeatedly served up scenes of suffering. One or two scenes could communicated the constant betrayal of Archeron by those around him would have sufficed. Instead we are beat over the literary head with nastiness by his "foster" father, brother and our favorite b%#*&@, Artemis. After a while once I realized which way the scene was going (betrayal, suffering, etc) I would just skip the section.

The second half of the book is of course Ms. Kenyon's strength - she writes a wonderful para-normal love story. Her characters are interesting and well developed. The touch of humor is welcome.

Overall I really enjoyed this much awaited story of Acheron, but think in her enthusiasm to get it "just right" Ms. Kenyon went a little over-board with Acheron's desparate early life.

I did not mind waiting for this book to be published, it is well worth the wait. Acheron, even from the beginning of the DHS, I've always been very curious about him and that I had always wished that he would find someone who would ease away the pain and just make him happy and I am just glad that he found that someone. Acheron has always been one of my fave in the DHS. I just love this book, it is such an emotional roller coaster of a story. All in all I can say for this book is EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD.... Sherrilyn Kenyon had done it again!!!! I can't wait for the next one RE: STRYKER. Nick Gautier where r u???!!!!
