Synopsis

A rumour has persisted in the vampire world of a dark slayer - mysterious, elusive and seemingly impossible to kill, she is the one hunter who strikes terror into the hearts of the undead. She is Ivory Malinov. Her only brethren the wolves. Long ago betrayed by her people, abandoned by her family, Ivory has lived centuries without companionship or love. She has sustained her sanity by preparing for one purpose - to destroy her greatest enemy. Until the night she picks up the scent of a man, her unexpected salvation. Her lifemate. The curse of all Carpathian women.

He is Razvan. Branded a criminal, detested and feared, he is a dragonseeker borne of one of the greatest Carpathian lineages, only to be raised as its most despised - and captive - enemy. Fleeing from his lifetime of imprisonment, Razvan now seeks the dawn to end his terrible existence. Instead he has found his deliverance in the Dark Slayer. In spirit, in flesh and blood, in love, and in war, Ivory and Razvan are made for each other. For as long as they dare to live.

About this title

About the Author

Christine Feehan - I live in the beautiful mountains of Lake County, California. I have always loved hiking, camping, rafting and being outdoors. I’ve also been involved in the martial arts for years - I hold a third degree black belt, instruct in a Korean karate system, and have taught self-defense. I am happily married to a romantic man who often inspires me with his thoughtfulness. We have a yours, mine, and ours family, claiming eleven children as our own. I have always written books, forcing my ten sisters to read every word, and now my daughters read and help me edit my manuscripts. It is fun to take all the research I have done on wild animals, raptors, vampires, weather, and volcanoes and put it together with romance.

From AudioFile

DARK SLAYER is a noteworthy example of dual-voiced narration--seamless and enthralling. Set in Feehan's paranormal world of blood-drinking Carpathians, this latest installment introduces Rosvan, slave to an evil mage who escapes to find that his mate, Ivory, shares his desire for revenge. Large amounts of the treacherous text are in the Carpathian language, but narrators Phil Gigante and Jane Brown never falter in delivering a realistic, intense love story. Moving smoothly between Rosvan and Ivory's points of view, the narrators construct the paranormal world with unflagging professionalism. The sound effects used when the main characters converse telepathically are effective and keep the dialogue clear. If there are any paranormal romance listeners who haven't yet discovered Feehan, this impressive production will bring them on board. C.A.
