Product Description:
She has tempted many men
but never found her equal.
Until now.
Though she has lived for centuries, Anya, goddess of anarchy, has never known pleasure. Until Lucien, the incarnation of deatha warrior eternally doomed to take souls to the hereafter. He draws her like no other. And Anya will risk anything to have him.
But when the merciless Lord of the Underworld is ordered by the gods to claim Anya herself, their uncontrollable attraction becomes an anguished pursuit. Now they must defeat the unconquerable forces that control them, before their thirst for one another demands a sacrifice of love beyond imagining.

What happened? I loved the very first book! I gave it 5 stars. I sped through it and was only able to wait a one day before picking this one up. I was so disappointed with this one that after the very first 50 pages I almost stopped reading it. I just didn't like Anya - the main female character. She was just annoying! If it hadn't been for the fact that I was interested in finding out what was happening to the other characters from the very first book and I would have stopped reading it.
In the end it got a little better because there were a few side stories about the other warriors, but in a way that was annoying too because it was like reading a soap opera. You'd just get into one story and it would switch to another.
I'm giving this book a 2 out of 5 stars just for the fact that the sub characters were interesting and strong enough to be carry on the series.

Gena Showalter's Lord of the Underworld series is a really great series. It's suspenseful, fast paced and I found myself connecting with the characters. I'm excited about reading more in this series.
The reason that I rated this particular book a four and a 1/2 was for the amount of silly dialogue coming from Anya, minor goddess of anarchy. There was a whole lot of baby talk and valley girl lingo that just seemed out of place. It seemed stupid to me that she would talk that way, because she comes across as a really intelligent person and a strong fighter. Pair up the valley girl talk with the demon of death and it was a little too much for me.
However the closer that she gets to Lucien she sort of tones down the number of 'fuzzy wuzzies' and 'cherries on top of me's'.
Anyway I would read this book again if that tells you anything and I can't wait to begin The Darkest Pleasure, which I just bought yesterday.

THIS BY FAR WAS MY FAVORITE...I LAUGHED AT ANYA..GODDESS OF ANARCHY ALWAYS TESTING THE PATIENCE OF DEATH! I ACTUALLY FINISHED IT IN ONE DAY AND WAS UPSET BECAUSE I DIDNT WANT IT TO END..LOL
ALTHOUGH LUCIEN WAS SCARED THAT DIDN'T TURN THE BEATIFUL GODDESS ANYA AWAY..LUCIEN ON THE OTHER HAND DINT KNOW WHAT TO MAKE OF ANYA.. HE THOUGHT SHE PITIED HIM AND THEN FINALLY HE REALIZED SHE WAS ACTUALLY ATTRACTED TO HIM AND THEY BOTH FELL IN LOVE.
YESSSSSS...THIS WAS WAS A WONDERFUL READ!

I have read all of Ms. Showalter's books and this one does not disappoint in this new series! I love a book that I can't put down and Ms. Showalter accomplishes this with this new series. Cursed hotties with attitudes and honor meeting women who are smart, sarcastic and witty- a quick addiction -smart dialogue and hot steamy encounters - love it like chocolate! One is never enough!!

I've noticed several people compare the LORDS series to Ward's Dark Brotherhood, and sometimes unfavorably, but I have to say that I think these books are not like Ward's at all. Though Ward's series is written very well technically, I really find much of them distasteful. I really am not into a hero who will willingly carve into himself to prove his love, etc. Gena's heroes are not sado-masochists. They are compelling heroes, fighting to control the demons within, and finding women that help make them more human. Don't read or not read these books because someone says they are similar to another series out there. Many books share surface similarities - paranormal men, possessed by dark powers, fiesty heroines, etc. Gena's series is fresh, with each book having a distinct flare based on the particular Lord it focuses on. And the chemisty between the H/H is HOT!
