No, No, No - Where did the fire go?2
I don't even know how to describe what went wrong here. It's like the whole middle part of the book is missing. The text in my copy was huge, giving the illusion that this was a full length novel at 320 pages, but really it's more like 150. I was annoyed with every paragraph I had to trudge through to finish this book. It was formulaic, dull and corny. I like a little cheese with my romance but this is just not good.

The only thing that salvaged this book (and the reason for 2 stars not 1) was the short story at the end. It's like a little refresher course of the many books in the entire Dark Hunter / Dream Hunter series, which was a good thing if like me you have read all of the SK DH books in the official reading order as published on SK's website. Considering how many books there are you do sometimes forget what's come before.

I will stick with the DH series' because I've been waiting for Acheron's book for a long time, but this book has no real impact on the series and gives no more information on the key players in this world than you already have. I vey missable installment.

PS - Go to the SK official website or see my listmania list for the complete reading order. Although the Dark Hunter and Dream Hunter Series can be read independantly of each other, there are cross over characters so there is a combined reading order of the two series...

I thought...2
...the story was fine. I have to admit that the Dream Hunter stories are not a big hit for me, especially the last one - I think it took me two weeks to read that book and normally I can read SK stories in one day.

This is a short story, with big spaced out writing!!! Not worth the £5.59 pricetag that I paid. When I first got the book and I flick through the pages I have to admit I was pretty annoyed.

It's you pretty basic SK story, the hero Aidan, superstar actor has had horrible, terrible, atroscious, things done to him and yes, he's bitter about it.

But hey give this guy 24-48 hours and you guessed it he's over it cause he's found LOVE with our heroine, Leta - Goddess of something that I cannot remember no wait it's to do with dreams..uhh...protection. Nope still can't remember.

Anyway, the story is fine in fact I thought it was more suited to mills and boons or the silhouette books but then I don't think they would have been able to publish it because it would fall short of the minimum words they require.

Sorry I am being mean I know but I am getting to the point that I don't care about the Hunter stories anymore - move on SK and write something new and fresh.

I am also getting fed up with the snips for Acheron and this book has one. A christmas story at the end which give you an up-date basically of where everyone is.

At first I was looking forward to reading Acheron's story (I think that was in 2005) but 3 years later it's too late, the publisher and author are putting me off with the unnecessary books in between.

Sadly Lacking3
Well I agree with most of the people who have reviewed this book, there is something lacking, and I am sorry to say but the short christmas story at the back of the book held me more than the dream hunter story. I think its acheron who's a miss, he always gives her books an edge. The characters in this book just seem removed from each other, there was little interaction between them which was meaningful, and I found that the end of the book almost seemed like an add on.

I will continue to buy Miss Kenyon's books as she always delivers, but this was disappointing.
