Sadly the Night Walker series comes to a close. Lisa Kessler has grown as a writer and her fans recognize the quality of this final story. As hard as it must have been to write, the characters carry the reader into the world of Night Walkers. This story takes up where Night Demon leaves off. Lukas and Gretchen are parents to the Night Child, child of the God of the North. Without his birth, the Night Walkers, guardians of the mortal world, would cease to exist and the mortal world wouldn't be far behind.

Muriah and Issa are the lead characters in this story. Muriah has hit that wonderful time of life, her biological clock is exploding in her mind. Her psychic gifts, and take charge personality are thrown together with the God of the West, Issa, the great sacrificing god. Their journey to trap Apep, an Egyptian god reject, has them working together, or learning how to work together and deal with their emotional baggage.

This was a fast pace, I don't want to put it down, NO! I'm going to keep reading... do what ever you want, just don't bug me, type of book. This whole series has been a joy and pleasure to read. I do hope that Ms. Kessler will pick up the story line of the Night Child... can you imagine, a mortal mom, night walker dad, and an immortal god for a child.. Talk about your terrible twos, and those teenage years! ( )

I have read every single book and Novella in this series and have loved every single one of them!! One of the great parts of this one for me is the heroine, Muriah, already knows Night Walkers exist so with this story, she is the one with the secret. Issa hasn't been around for as long as he has without knowing a thing or two though, so it doesn't take him long to discover that she does in fact have a secret and the way he learns what that secret is, well let's just say... I would love for him to discover my secrets! Every single one of them. *Sigh* These two make an amazing couple and have been bumped up to my favorite out of all of them. It's a definite must read, but if you haven't read the others in this series do yourself a favor and do that! You will be really glad you did!!! I received a complimentary copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. ( )
