 Reyes, warrior of Pain September 25, 2008

Wow so much has happened in this book! It was a nice installment in the Lords of the Underworld series.
You are left with a lot of questions though.
Reyes,is a warrior keeper of the demon Pain. He has to inflict it on himself in order to control the demon. Reyes craves Danika but is worried his demon will affect her. Danika Ford and her family were kidnapped by Lucien and Aeron in the Darkest Night. Aeron has been ordered by the Gods to kill these four women, no one knows why. In the Darkest Pleasure Aeron is mad with bloodlust, the only thing that seems to calm him is this demon named Legion.
Danika is stubborn, feisty, and extremely protective of her family. She has been on the run from the warriors and is finally caught when she kills a man who happens to be a hunter. Danika doesnt know what to do r think anymore, especially when it involves Reyes.Can Danika be the key to finding Pandora's box?
I throughly enjoyed this book and dearly hope Gena Showalter writes more. There are so many more questions that need answering! I love the Lords of the Underworld and hopefully you will too.

First off...I am glad that readers are giving their opinions...varied ones...not all 5 star reviews...that is what we need when deciding if we want to purchase a book...
I love this series and I did enjoy this book. I loved the character of Reyes (aka Pain). I really liked how protective he was and how he would go out of his way to not cause pain to others.
I admit that a few scenes are a little over the top (the bathroom one). I could have done without that visual thank you very much.
One of the things I judge a good series on, is can you remember those characters long after you have read them. This is the case for Showalter's characters...very much like The Black Dagger Brotherhood series with J R Ward. Think of all the books you have read where you can't remember the name of the character or anything substantial about them.
So kudos to Ms. Showalter for creating characters that live on in my mind!
Keep posting those reviews readers...good or bad...give your opinion...
 Arrrrrrgh! Why Did I Read Another of These Books? September 6, 2008

I'm beyond sighing. Now I'm just mad at myself for reading another in this series when I knew what I was getting. Now we're reading about the romance between Reyes, who is inhabited by the demon Pain, and his mate, Dannika, who is some kind of psychic that can travel between dimensions but doesn't know it until late in the book. Reyes can only experience pleasure if he is in pain, so there's a lot of borderline BDSM stuff going on here, but never anything that falls completely into that category. Dannika is pretty much an idiot, like the other heroines in the other two books. Everyone is running around trying to find artifacts to lead them to Pandora's box so they can destroy it before their enemies find it and use it to destroy them. A VERY BAD GUY shows up in the middle of the book and it's the first time we ever have met him, so maybe the author figured out that something was lacking. I guess I will never know since I have run out of patience with this series and will not try any more. Although the heroes are OK, the heroines are freaking idiots and the plots are mostly predictable and too much like much better books by J.R. Ward and Sherrilyn Kenyon. No more, thanks!
