Library Journal
This trio of stories explores romance with an otherworldly edge. In "Dark Descent," the newest installment of Feehan's mesmerizing "Carpathian (Dark)" series, an aggressive, multitalented professional body guard/secret service agent who never lets danger or the unknown stop her becomes the lifemate of a powerful immortal embroiled in a battle with the vampires. In "The Star Queen," Susan Grant's prequel to her popular Star books, a munitions developer/producer finds love with a rebel leader who begins the peace process in one corner of the galaxy. In "Sacrilege," a spinoff of Susan Squire's popular Sacrament, the vampire heroine (a recovering "addict") is quite strong but generally seeks to avoid rather than embrace adventure. This highly sensual, exceptionally well-done anthology by three of alternative reality's top writers will appeal to devoted fans and is well worth the notice of readers who have not experimented with this subgenre.

Dark Descent (The only one)by wolf-lover

November 03, 2009: I had a hard time with this book. It is only a short story 133 pages and I felt robbed. Their story wasn't even half told. This book is shared with two other authors with short stories. I was intrigued to hear about Mikhail again as he is my favorite character and felt there was more to the story than was given. Traian is an intriguing character, and Joie his lifemate has a lot to offer. I sure hope to hear more of them in the next book. Over all it was a disappointment, but I hope to hear more later on.

August 14, 2009: I found the beginning to be quite dramatic as Joie takes a bullet and ends up in the hospital. With her unique psychic abilities, she has teleported her unconscious self to a cave where Traian has been injured in. While her body remains at the hospital, her spirit form is in the cave with Traian and the two talk as if they had known each other before then. Then, she leaves him and Traian is determined to find her through their psychic link.
Joie is determined to find the handsome mystery man she had met in the cave and journeys nearly halfway around the world to find him. There she is thrusted into the world of danger that the Carpathians know too well of. The two succumb to their deep, dark desire to be together and they join as one just as they had done in the past.
