Loved it as I have all the ones of this series. I'm busy chewing my nails off waiting for the next one so I can find out what happens with John ( )

I love the brothers you feel me? But I was disappointed with this story. Without getting long winded, suffice it to say that I felt Wrath and John Matthew got more line time then Rhev. I didn't really feel connected to Ehlena or Rhev. While I applaud showing Rhev's more tender side, I thought we would see him at his most ruthless too, and it never happened.
I felt a bit cheated with this book.
I know that there was a lot of subplot and future foreshadowing going on, but between the Lessers, Lash, Wrath, JM and the rest of the kick ass brothers, Rhev took a back seat and that bugged the shit out of me true?

I will still read the series, and will read her new series, but I was so excited for Rhev and his Mohawk, and I just was so disappointed ( )

Once you start reading this book you can't stop until the last page. Once again J. R. Ward did not disappoint. The complex relationships and tie ins are amazing. The characters really jump off the page. Definetly recomend this as a read. ( )

Let me start off by making it clear that I'm a fan of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. I feel like I know the brothers, and enjoy catching up with them and watching their progress in the war against the Lessers. But despite the fact that I'm a fan, this book was a disappointment and I don't think it lived up to the rest of the series.

This was supposed to be Rehvenge's story, yet there were too many other storylines screaming for attention. There was Wrath's struggle with being king, the John Matthew and Xhex will-they/won't-they dance, Lash dealing with the Lessers, and even a plot cooked up by some of the Glymera. I found myself skipping over parts trying to find Rehvenge and Ehlena's part of the story.

As much as I love Wrath and John Matthew, Wrath already had his turn and John Matthew's story should be coming out sooner or later. There were too many distractions and not enough time spent on the two main characters. I felt cheated, and a little outraged on Rehvenge's behalf! *L*

Because of all of the side stories and distractions, I only gave this one 3 out of 5 stars. I'm glad I borrowed it from the library instead of buying it, as it was a little on the disappointing side. ( )
