Mira is summoned by the Coven following the events of the preceding book. Danaus, Tristan, and her maker all accompany her to the seat of the Coven's power.

Once there she claims Tristan as her own, creating a family, something she swore she'd never do. The only reason she does it now is because she knows their maker will never protect him from the court's games, and as chum, Tristan will never survive.

Even more troubling, once she gets there she realizes there's already a Naturi on the island.

My problem with this book is that it felt like the story didn't advance all that much. We already knew the Coven was split on what to do with Mira and the naturi, we already knew about the horrible things that went on at Court.

That there's a split in the supernatural world is important but doesn't feel particularly surprising. It's more surprising that there's a split among the naturi.

We learned a little more about Danaus' background but for some reason it didn't impact me the way it was supposed to.

I did think the plan for revealing the presence of supernatural beings was interesting, particularly the background work of making supernatural creatures popular in fiction and film.

It's not fair to say that nothing happened in this book, but it definitely felt like it was mostly set up for the next book in the series. ( )

This one was great as well, full of battlles between the coven, Lycans, the Naturi and internal battles within Mira and the Hunter Danus. Even a hot steamy scene...Awesome, however left me hanging waiting for the next one to come out. ( )

I like this urban fantasy series a lot. This was not quite as good as the first book, but still good. I know it will likely be another year before the next book will come out, so I must be patient. ( )

The journey continues, Jocelynn Drake continues the Nightwalker story in Dayhunter without any lapse of time. While Mira and the Hunter struggle with their beliefs and emotions in this sequel, they must overlook their troubles, and they just might be able to stay alive. Mira begins to collect many followers in this book. Mira must figure out this twisted plan before it is too late. Which is near impossible when you have no idea whom you can trust. ( )

Mira isn't your average vampire. Well, unless of course you consider a fire starter vampire normal. She's teamed up with a vampire hunter, one of her so-called makers, and a few other people that want her dead. But the crisis at hand is more important and they need her if they want to survive.

Mira doesn't want anyone to depend on her and she sure as hell doesn't want to have to depend on someone else. Or so she thought. When she decides to take Tristan under her wing and save him from his creator, she convinces herself that once the danger has diminished, they will go their separate ways. But as time passes she begins to question everything. She will have to put her trust in her enemies and she's less than comfortable with that idea. Is she capable of relying on someone else for help? Even the ones who wish her dead? She knows deep down that they all must put aside their differences and work together if they wish to defeat the naturi who will reek havoc on the entire planet. Can they work together if it means saving themselves and humanity?

The only problem I had with this book is that it came to an end and the next book in the series Dawnbreaker, won't to be released until September 29,2009 ( )
