BOOK SYNOPSIS:
HELL HATH NO FURY . . .
For five thousand years, Revenant believed he was alone in the world, a fallen angel beyond any redemption. Now he finds he has a twin brother who had all the light and love Revenant was denied. Caught in a tug of war between Heaven and Hell, he must weigh his thirst for revenge against his desire for a mysterious female named Blaspheme—a female whose very origins could deliver him into salvation . . . or destruction.
LIKE AN ANGEL SCORNED
Blaspheme has a deadly secret: she’s the forbidden offspring of an angel and a fallen angel. Hunted by both heavenly and satanic forces, she has survived only by laying low and trusting no one. When Revenant claims he can save them both, how can she possibly believe him? But the powerful angel is persistence incarnate and for Blaspheme, there’s no place she can hide in Heaven or Hell where he won’t find her .
KELLY’S REVIEW:
5 Hearts If you have not read Reaver. Please stop here. You can’t understand Revenant without knowing what happened in Reaver’s book. That was your warning.
Revenant is a very complicated creature. In ways he reminds me a lot of Wraith (if you have not read Wraith’s book you need to). I can’t blame Revenant at all for how he feels or how he reacts. The poor guys has literally been through Hell. You can’t not root for him. Revenant is also his own worst enemy. But sometimes taking a leap of faith is the only thing you can do when you are at the end of your rope.
Blaspheme is saucy. I really like her. She gives Revenant a run for his money every step of the way. But Blas has her own set of issues that she is dealing with. Issues that if it gets out could mean her death. Blas will soon learn that trust is an important tool that she can’t live without. Only question is who can she really trust with her secret.
Oh man! I honestly can not get over the fact of how much I love Larissa Ione and her Demonica series. My only issue with this book is that I read it way too fast and wanted more. More Revenant, more Blaspheme, more sexy time, more of everything and everyone in the Demonica/Lords of Deliverance world.
It will truly be a very sad day when she writes the final chapter in this series. Let hope that the characters of the Demonica world keep invading her thoughts for year and years to come. I am already looking forward to Hades’ story which will be out in 2015 as part of the 1001 Dark Nights. Until then, you need to go get catch up on this series.
KIMBERLY’S REVIEW:
5 Hearts Holy Crackers!
Honestly what more is there to say about a Larissa Ione book? I mean the woman can write no wrong. She brings you right into her world in the matter of a few words.
First on Blaspheme. Is it weird that I want her as a friend even though she is from another world? She has secrets but something about her calls to the reader and you want to be there for her. Now Revenant. What a messed up creature he is but yet you find yourself rooting for him every step of the way. He has been through so much. He is complicated and yet so damn sexy.
I am not sure I have ever found a book that Ione has written that didn’t have me mesmerized and engrossed. The way Ione writes makes her the queen of all paranormal if you ask me. It doesn’t matter if she wrote about the phone book I would be right there to pick it up. If you are a fan of the paranormal genre and already love Ione’s books then this will be no exception. If you are a paranormal fan and have not read her books yet then what the heck are you waiting for?
Lastly a warning. You need to read Ione’s book Reaver first. There is just too much connected. But really why haven’t you read Reaver? Heck why haven’t you read the entire series?
