The Dream Hunter by Sherrilyn KenyonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
The 1st book in the Dream-Hunter Series which is also part of the Dark Series World….okay, you’re confused…so am I!!! All these “inside” series of a series!!! Ok, never mind…enough of that!!!
Dark-Hunters job is to protect humans from demons entering their dreams. This is the story of a once powerful member of the Oneroi who fell from grace!!!!
Arik was one of those protectors but things went wrong when he entered a human’s dream, resulting in him becoming a Skotos, losing all his feelings and has been for thousands of years looking for someone that will make him feel passion and alive again.
But then he enters into a human woman’s sensual chocolate dream – yes, not kidding….
This is someone who makes him see the vivid colors and feel emotions that he believed were gone forever!!!!
Megeara Kafieri, pure Atlantean blood in her, anthropologist and underwater recovery expert… ….
She travels to Greece, determined to finding the fabled lost civilization of Atlantis….
to vindicate her dead father’s reputation that was left in tatters when he had not been able to prove it whilst he was still alive.
This was not a bad book but it never really wowed me!!!
Arik was a bit of a pain….selfish, self-centered…caring for no one but himself. He does redeem himself a bit at the end when he actually sacrifices himself for Megeara…who by the way he had barter her life for his curse to be broken!!!!
Megeara was so whiny and painful at times…that I wanted to throttle her!!! Oh, she wasn’t pretty enough for someone as awesome as Arik…what is it with these human females that the Dark Hunters fall in love with always have ….I am not gorgeous enough for this “gorgeouness “guy!!!!!! Get a life girls!!!!!
I found the secondary characters and subplots much more interesting than the romance between Arik & Megeara!!! A lot of this series characters make an appearance and the interaction and dialogue is awesome as usual…..loved seeing Kat & her beyond “cruella” mother Apollymi… And loved, loved the Greek Islands setting.
I liked it but this is not going to be a reread soon!!!!
