5 out of 5 starsNo Rest for the Wicked, 2008-09-01
Great read! I've become a true fan of Kresley Cole. She weaves description of setting with an invested caring and passion for the characters in the story. They aren't just hot and steamy lovers (no worries...they are!) but you find yourself drawn to turn one more page to make sure they make it through unscathed...emotionally and physically. I read this book after 'A Hunger Like No Other' and 'Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night'. I'm finding I love each new book as much - if not more- than the previous. I need more! :)

5 out of 5 starsLoved It!!!, 2008-08-21
Immortals after dark is a great series of books, I've read them all! They have everything, drama, love scenes, humor, and every "paranormal figure" you can think of. It's hard to pick a favorite character/book, but I might have to go with Cade & Holly's story. Will definitely keep reading when more books are released!

5 out of 5 starsPage turner! , 2008-08-17
I have been reading romance novels since I was 15, so a good 20 years now. In my mind nothing like a cup of tea and a good romance novel to escape and unwind at the end of a day.
Just to give a sample of my taste, other authors I enjoy are: Jen Holling, Connie Brockway, Johanna Lindsey, Julie Garwood, Christina Dodd, just to name a few.

This entire series is such a page turner. I had a hard time putting any of the titles down. More evenings than I care to admit I stayed up way to late "just to read one more chapter".
In No Rest for the Wicked. I found Sebastian to be such a great leading man. He was strong, dedicated, and what he did to pursue Kaderin essentially to the ends of the earth was such a show of dedication. What he gave up of his own family to be with this woman and to save her life and that of her family. Boy a true hero. I loved them together!

I enjoyed the glimpse of supporting characters so you felt that any of them would be enjoyable to read about in their own series. The entire series is fast and there is not a lot of review of what happened in a prior book. You open the book and off you go. These are not slow moving. I laughed, I cried, I blushed. Boy Ms. Cole writes some steamy scenes. Wow! And I am amazed that nothing repeats. Each book is so different, the plots are so different and the way the main characters relate is so different. Yes they do all have hansom men and lovely ladies. But the dynamic relationship between the main characters is simply fire from page 1 to the end. Out of all my years reading romance. I have never read modern romance before. I can say without a doubt that these are the best romance books I have read and that is truly saying a lot considering how many authors works sit on my shelf.

4 out of 5 starsHow the mighty has fallen!, 2008-07-21
Centuries ago, before she earned the appelation " Kaderin the Coldhearted", she spared the life of a young vampire and lost her twin sisters because of that act of mercy. Blaming herself for that one act of weakness, she made an oath to never let her emotion sway her judgment ever again. To atone for her sisters' brutal death, she dedicated her existence in annihilating their enemies and promised to rid the earth of vampires. Thus, Kaderin the Coldhearted became the Valkyrie's most prolific assassin. And as per her vow, an unknown power ensured she was able to follow her oath, promising surcease from the pain, thereby blessing her for eternity. Yet, was it truly a blessing, or a curse? For while she might have found relief from her sorrow, her emotions have been dead ever since.

For a thousand years, Kaderin has withered away in her cold existence void of emotions. Then just as she was gearing up for the Talisman Hie, Kaderin accepted a mission to kill a vampire in a remote Russian village. There, for the second time in her immortal life, Kaderin was unable to kill an enemy. For inexplicable reason, she was drawn to him, stupefied to meet a vampire who was begging to be killed. And as she stood watching him, Kaderin the Coldhearted began feeling once again. Oh, how the mighty has fallen!

As the readers are told of Kaderin's initial meeting with Sebastian Wroth, the author begins the tale of a lonely vampire who's been turned by his brother against his will. The reader sees through Kaderin's eyes the anguish of a man who has felt nothing but weariness for what he considers an abominable existence. Unlike the first book, the chemistry sizzles between Kaderin and Sebastian from the word go leaving you waiting the next time their paths would cross. As the readers read on, Kresley Cole continues to build her world of fantasy where we learn of the immortals' version of the Amazing Race in which creatures of the Lore compete for the ultimate prize to take back to their faction. Cole introduces more fascinating characters and creatures that beg for their own story. We learn more about the difference between the two vampire factions, the Horde and Forbearers. And as the Talisman Hie begins, we are taken on a venturous journey where a magical key is not the only coveted prize for our hero and heroine, but the once in a lifetime chance to find happiness.

If you like fantasy and are fascinated by alternate reality where faeries, vampires, lykae, elves and other interesting creatures co-exist with humans, Kresley Cole has granted your wish with her Immortals After Dark Series. I admit that I wasn't exactly captivated by A Hunger Like No Other (The Immortals After Dark Series, Book 1) but still decided to continue with the series. I am glad that I did as I found NO REST FOR THE WICKED utterly entertaining and enjoyed being taken on an exciting journey around the globe (yes, I'm a huge fan of the Amazing Race!) and reading about Kaderin and Sebastian.
