review 1: Immortal Hunter is a gut-wrenchingly dark drama, packed full of mystery and action and a testament to the power of selfless love and devotion. The hero and heroine of this novel aren’t perfect people. They’ve made mistakes. Lots of them. With tragic consequences. At the same time you know that no one, no matter how flawed, deserves the misery they face. These characters, perhaps, least of all.The author has created a great ‘band of brothers’ to center her stories around. The Execution Underground is an international organization of men that fight supernatural baddies, but so far the books center primarily around this one particular group. Each man has his specialty from ghosts, to witches, to shapeshifters. It is a refreshing change from the last decade trend of ma... moreking the monsters the heroes (note: I still like monster-heroes more than I can say). These heroes are all very human and that gives the story a different flavor. Variety is the spice and all that…What else can I tell you about this novel? The love scenes are very well done. The author has definitely kept the “love” in the love scene, but also made them steamy. The first half of the story felt a bit slow for me. The action does start from the beginning, or rather the story starts in the middle of the action, but this a reunited lovers story so there is lots of flash backs and introspection along the way (apologies for that ridiculously long sentence). It took me about 40% in to really connect with the characters. I think the past was revealed slowly to give a great moment of realization in the middle, but it was sometimes hard to understand the heroine’s attitudes without the full knowledge of her past. The novel is written in a crisp, smoothly modern style, making for a good solid read.If you’re looking to go into dark places, this could be a powerful read.
review 2: The thing I loved about this book was that you could actual feel the pain that David was going through. It was a tangible living presence throughout the book, which in my opinion speaks so highly of this author's ability to write. When you can feel the emotions like they are actually happening to you, instead of the characters, the author has successfully immersed you in their world. Its a dark world that Kait portrays in her books and her characters are points of light in the darkest of night. Hats off to this young author for thoroughly addicting me to her series, and leaving me anxious for the next adventure!!!! less
