Download Your Copy Stygian (Dark-Hunter, #27) Brought To You By Sherrilyn Kenyon Produced In EPub

really don't want to say this but I'm done with this series, . . It was one of my most favorite of all time but the past few books have put me off if it, . . I wish she could go back to her old style of writing and her books made sense but I couldn't finish this one that has only ever happened to me twice but just less than a third of the way through I had to give up.
. . maybe it's time for "All good things must come to an end" and for Ms, Kenyon to wrap this series up, Let me start this by saying that I do talk about some specific plot points in this review, I do not spoil anything but if you want to walk into this story completely blind than this review is not for you, I tried to keep it as simple as possible while reviewing but as you all know, with the stories being so intricate its hard not to spoil anything so I had to be a wee bit vague.
I tried!!!

Also, Kenyons books need to be read in order!!! If you havent read the firstbooks you cannot just pick this one up and start the series.
It just wont work. They like to say you can read these books out of order but you really cant,

Stygian is a lot like Acheron and Styxx, Kenyon gives us the back story to who Urian is how he came to be the man weve all found a soft spot for, I loved the firstof this book I know the percentages because I read it on my kindle, It was so interesting seeing Urian and his brothers and sister grow up the dynamic, the drama, the fights, Diamons have always been the bad guys, the ones that go bump in the night, but as Kenyon does so masterfully, she turns everything we thought we knew on its head.
It truly is amazing the way Kenyon can make you sympathize with the bad guys so easily remember reading Styxxs book, Being able to see another side of Urian was the best part of this book, I was especially fond of watching Phoebe and Urian grow as a couple, Which was something we didnt get to see much of in the other books, Urian has been a favorite character of mine for a long time now and this book just made me love him more,

This book does revisit some of the major things that have happened in past books, especially Phoebes death and Styxx and Bethany coming back into Urians life.
These repeats I was fine with, It refreshed my memory and it was actually nice to get Urians perspective, However, after getting past that and the firstwe head into Dragon territory and we know how that goes, The pastbooks Son of No One, Dragonbane, Dragonmark, and Dragonsworn have been a little rough they were confusing and repeated plot lines, I was excited about Stygian because I thought we were finally moving away from that, however, we get a little bit of the dragon confusion at the end of this book.
It was hard to get through and kind of brought the book down from being a five star read for me, I think that entire section could have been skipped or at least shortened because the end after the dragons felt rushed and was over way before I thought it should have been.
I would have preferred to see the ending which I will not spoil so this will be a little confusing more detailed and have more interaction between Urian and some of the lead characters.


If the book had less of the dragons and had been a little more flushed out

at the end, it definitely would have been a five star read! Although, the epilogue has me so excited for the next book in the series!!!! Like super excited!!! Bring on more DarkHunters!!! Even though the last few books have been a little, shall we say off, Stygian gives me hope that the rough patch is over and a new and brighter horizon is in sight!

Kenyon will always be an automatic buy for me.
Even with the rough patch, She is just such a master story teller, She weaves such intricate tales that bring you to your knees, Its hard not to get caught up in the mythology and love, This book wasnt perfect but it was still pretty amazing! I got to see the writing I fell in love with once again with this book, I love this series and I hope it never ends! Ever!!!

For more reviews go to literarylovebooks, com I love the DH world, but when I finished Stygian, I felt disappointed,

I'm wondering if Kenyon is losing her touch, because the last DH book I really liked was Styxx's, I was keen to get back on track with one of the original DH characters, especially one so closely connected to Styxx, but this book lacked a lot of important things like plot continuation and romance.


One of the reasons I love the DH books is because usually the characters have great relationship development, and I can really believe they fall in love.
What we got from Urian's book was a few chapters of his childhood spent with Xyn and a few chapters describing his yearly "appointment" with her, and then BAM they're together forever with maybe a quarter of the book dedicated to their relationship.


At least a quarter of Stygian uses recycled material from the last dozen books, in which we reread events from Urian's perspective, and half of it is there to give his life story from the last eleven thousand years.
Unlike Acheron's or Styxx's books, I don't think Urian needed so much time spent in his past, I was still wondering who he'd end up with in the last hundred pages and on my iPad the page count was!

I'm hoping this book served as a bit of a break from the usual breakneck speed of this series, and that we'll get back to plot development in Xander's book.
More copy and paste

Im so disappointed by this book and feel kinda of let down, After previous books had basically copy and paste throughpercent of the book I was hoping after all the hype that this would be a original, Sadly it is not. There are close toor more pages that are word for word of Styxx and falycns book, If you didnt read those then this book will be wonderful, If you have sorry only the first part is new material, I wrote an even longer, spoiler filled post sitelinkhere, I was pretty disappointed in this book,

points/½/stars

Urian was born different, He was left excluded by the Appolites, Grew strong enough to lead the Daimon's in battle, Wounded of heart, Urian lives on despite the obstacles life has thrown at him, He just has to figure out how to live with it,

I have major emotional damage after reading this, I feel so utterly drained right now,

Reading about Urian's life was hard, He was so lonely. He lost so much. I've read everything up until this point, I knew what was going to happen, Just when things were stable in his life, after deadening himself to the world, he met Phoebe, You know what happens there, I was shaking trying to contain myself as things were happening because I just was so wound up, emotionally, It was hard, but good,

That said, I'm a bit upset at this book, It feels like a rewrite, It was internally inconsistent as much as it was inconsistent with the rest of the series, It felt like Kenyon wanted a specific outcome, and had to change so much that she already written previously to make it work, Entire scenes that were in other books had a line or two added to make it consistent with this book, There were scenes in this book where Urian forgot major parts of his own life somehow, to make scenes from previous books make sense, It was just aggravating by the end,

And that is another thing, The last quarter of this book, easily, was word for word scenes from other books, They didn't even always come from Urian, They'd come from Savatar or Styxx or something, This is the second or third, and probably even fourth time I've seen some of these scenes now, I've actually lost count. There was no new perspective added on these scenes this time, nothing, They were just repeats. The last few books have felt this way, I knew it would happen in this book, but I didn't realise the end of the book was going to be to this extent, Honestly, I'm really getting tired of it,

The beginning of the book was amazing, It wasn't as brutal as Acheron or Styxx, but I consider Stygian the third book in an arc containing these three characters, But, the end didn't make up for it, I rely on these books, especially the ones with this family, to drag me down into depression, and then give me an overwhelmingly happy ending, This did not do that, I've still got this deep, clawing depression in my bones that I cannot shake, This wasn't a happy ending, it was a content ending, A way to end it without dragging it out longer, Yet, it really needed a happy ending after the hell it put me through,  

Until Stygian, I was still enjoying this series, Now I'm a bit on the fence with it, I want to continue liking it, I was so excited for this one when I found out who it was about, I'm just worried about the future of the series,
