Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Even within the vampire brotherhood, Zsadist is feared. Still bearing the scars from a tortured past, he is renowned for his unquenchable fury. Anger is his only companion, and terror is his only passion-until he rescues a beautiful female from the evil Lessening Society.

When I read Zsadist's story I was heavily reminded of my all time hero Acheron. The past was very similar in their betrayals and experiences, however Zsadist became more of the man I would have Acheron expected to become. Bella is immediately drawn to Zsadist, we do not learn really why, but it is clear that it is genuine affection from her end. We explore her own nightmare and how it makes her even more wishing for a connection/relation with Zsadist, who would understand her well. As with all JR Ward books in this series, the hero has a tough time explaining the whole situation, hoping (I guess) that he will never have to go into detail. But in Zsadist's case it ends up making it very difficult for Bella to understand what he must do to survive.
I am glad she comes around eventually. I love the way JR Ward makes the Hero acknowledge his new persona with reluctance yet embraces it at some point. This makes the story so much more believable.
I am also very intrigued (yet disgusted) by the Reverend: naturally I can't wait for his story.

When you very first learn about Z you think he is cruel and mean.... but Bella turns his whole image around. IT IS GREAT!! ONE OF MY FAVS SO FAR

I could not put this book down. I love Zsadist. I think with his troubled soul he is the best brother to me. I have read this particular book over and over. I can't wait for the subsequent one!

When I read the very first book, I could tell that all Brothers, including Butch, would have their own novel eventually. All except Zsadist. I was scared of him. I was like..there's no way he'll ever have his own novel. He's broken (to steal Phury's wording). By the second novel, I knew he would, but I wasn't sure how the hell he would ever change enough to fall in love and overcome his massive inner demons. Between the second novel and the third novel (his own), Ward pulled it off beautifully. WOW. Talk about an incredible transformation for a character. My heart ached for the way that they both needed each other so perfectly. He saved her. She saved him. Sigh. So beautiful. By the way, this had to be the steamiest book I've ever read!!!

I never thought I would like reading vampire novels...but lo and behold the Black Dagger Brotherhood Series came along and I was hooked.
This is the story of Bella (she has a cameo in the previous novel, Lover Eternal) and Zsadist, the most troubled of the Warriors in the Brotherhood. Bella upon meeting Zsadist feels an instant connection with him, even though he is horribly scarred on his face. She seeks him out in the previous novel, but he pushes her away not wanting to taint her with his unworthy presence. Zsadist is a former slave and doesn't feel that he is worthy of Bella who is an aristocrat amongst her species. With Bella being kidnapped Zsadist must start owning up to the feelings he has for Bella and fight for her with external enemies as well as the enemies dwelling in his soul. The battle with the evil Lessers is escalating and the Brotherhood needs to be strong now more than ever.
So far this is my favorite of the series, I haven't read the subsequent three books but you can bet I'm going to. Zsadist is a character that makes you want to reach out to help and Bella is a strong woman who will go to any lengths to save her man. There were a few moments towards the end that actually brought a tear to my pathetic little eyes (I cry during commercials too). This is a must read for vampire/romance novel fans.
