Product Description
In a universe where assassins make the law, everyone lives in fear—except for Syn. Born of an illicit scandal that once rocked a dynasty, he always knew how to survive on the bloodthirsty streets. But that was then, and the future is now…
Syn was raised as a tech-thief until his livelihood uncovered a truth that could end his life. He tried to destroy the evidence, and has been on the run ever since. Now trained as an assassin, he allows no one to threaten him. Ever. He is the darkness that swallows his enemies whole.
Shahara Dagan is the best bounty hunter in the universe. When Syn comes back on the radar, she’s the only one who can bring him to justice. There’s only one problem: Syn is a close family friend who’s helped out the Dagans countless times. But if she saves him, both of their lives will be on the line. Is Syn’s protection worth the risk? The only hope Shahara has is to find the evidence he buried long ago. Now it’s kill or be killed—and they, the predators, have just become the hunted…

For me Syn and Shay are characters that will stay with me for some time because of the depth of characterization. And as those of us who took the time to read the Authors Notes at the beginning of Born of Night and Born of Fire know these are early works that Ms Kenyon's publisher brought back for our enjoyment. Even though these stories were early offerings they are still rich with Ms Kenyon's style and expertise. Reading these earlier stories we can easily see why Ms Kenyon is the author she is today, especially at characterization, action and plotting. The characters of Syn and Shay are believable and heart wrenching as they both come to terms with their pasts and learn to move on. The action only stops long enough to let you take a deep breath then it is on again to the next. I am looking forward to Born of Ice.

I enjoyed the heck out of this book as I did the first of this new series. I'm totally looking forward to the next one as well. While the heroine made some goofy mistakes that she should've known better, I still think she was great. I was glad to see Shay find a good match for herself! I've always loved reading Sherrilyn Kenyon and will continue to read so long as she continues to write.

Loved the DK series but this was one of the worst books i've ever read. The heroine is suppose to be a feared bounty hunter who was one of the few to pass difficulty seax training, but she keeps making stupid juvenile mistakes like taking Shy back to her condo once he is broken out of prison. I guess the authorities won't find him there! Duh! And Shy come on! She breaks into your house to kill you and you keep her locked up in it with free reign of the house. Then you come home After not sleeping for awhile and proceed to fall asleep on the couch! Will not read another book in this series.

I loved this novel. I am not a fan of novels set in a futuristic setting. But I absolutely adore this book. The characters are heartbreakingly human. Syn has been through absolute hell yet still has a good heart,you just want him to get his happy ending. Shahara is a great match for him, she's not stranger to sacrafice and also has an abusive past.
The action was nonstop and it literally kept me captivated until the end. I actually enjoyed this novel more than the previous one Born of Night which was quite good. I guess I have a soft spot for bad boy Syn.
I am a huge fan of her darkhunter novels, but this series so far is imaginitive and really draws a reader in. As I said before I am not a fan of futuristic settings I find they can detract from the characters, this definitely was not the case in this series so far. Definitely looking foward to Born of Ice with Syn and Shahara's son as the lead character!
please stop! November 13, 2009
