This is the second book in the Chronicles of Nick series by Sherrilyn Kenyon...her spinoff of the Dark Hunters' series.

The Chronicles of Nick takes us back in time as we learn what makes Nick Nick when he was still learning to maneuver through the Dark Hunters world and before he became a naughty boy.

The second book picks up the very next day Infinity ends. So if you haven't read Infinity...you REALLY need to read that one first.

Nick is trying to understand this new world...the world of Dark Hunters, dark magic and death.

In Infinity I found Nick was such a whiny brat. In this one...he still whines but he has taken it down a notch. I found myself rooting for him to choose good over evil. I was impressed with how he was able to acknowledge the power within himself but not be a complete jackass about it. That takes talent!

All in all, I will keep reading because I want to learn more about the younger Nick and see the consequences of his actions in the other Dark Hunter books. A little smidge of info...some of the choices Nick is making is changing the future. BAM!

My rating: 3 1/2 ***

I picked this book because JR Ward recommended it and let´s face it, the cover is cool.. LOL

This is a not an UF and not a PNR, it´s more like paranormal mystery. Charley is a PI, a police consultant and the grin reaper. Yup, she is a portal that dead people use to cross over. She also remembers everything since the day she was born and understands every language in the world.

Charley is so sarcastic that you immediately start to like her.. The book starts with a case of t...more

I picked this book because J.R. Ward recommended it and let´s be honest, the cover is cool.. LOL

This is a not an urban fantasy and not a paranormal romance and yet somehow it is both. But if I had to choose, I would say it´s paranormal mystery. Charley Davidson is a PI, a police consultant and the grim reaper. Yup, she is a portal that dead people use to cross over. She also remembers everything since the day she was born and understands every language in the world.

Charley is so sarcastic that you immediately start to like her. The book starts with a case of three dead lawyers, a lost kid and an innocent man in prison. Charley is trying to help her uncle with the investigation and is also trying to figure out why she´s having incredibly vivid and intense sensual dreams involving a hot mysterious stranger every single night. Is the man a ghost? A memory? Or is he something entirely different? As the story goes, Charley starts to discover the greater truth about her past and about her mission while trying to solve three murders and dealing with dead people all the time. The end of the book comes too fast and leaves us with a HUGE cliffhanger that makes you run to Amazon and check the release date for the second book.


And then there is Reyes. *sigh* Yes, you could not write about this book and not mention him. What could I really say about a non-corporeal being who gives Charley mind-blowing orgasms every night and can seduce her during the day in a room full of people.. He is HOT, with capital letters. And he is dangerous. And he has the tendency to rip off the spinal cords of people who try to kill Charley. But is he a protector or is he Charley´s greatest enemy? And what exactly is he? That´s the question of the day. Have I said too much? Believe me, there is so much more about him!


This book was like a fresh breeze on a spring day, fast-paced and easy to read, full of sarcastic humor and dead people :-) This is a really great start for a series that you won´t forget :-) The ending just left me wanting more and wanting it asap! So if you want something surprisingly different, you will not be disappointed!

MY RATING: ****
