She has had to move all over the world to hide from the Daimons who are after her. Her mother and two sisters died in a car explosion. Apollo had many children but just one that he bound himself to. She doesn’t even know if he is aware she is his last descendant in the line of the son he bound himself to or if he even cares. If he dies so does the Sun which would kill everyone on the planet. This is true but if she dies, so does Apollo and that wouldn’t be good for the world. Many Apollites and Daimons believe if they kill her, they will break the Apollite curse.

Only the direct descendants of his brother’s line are able to remember him and there is only one left so he protects him with everything he has.Ĭassandra is Apollo’s last living descendant and she has been on the run all her life. Any human who meets him will forget him after five minutes. Not only did Morginne switch souls with him, but she cursed him. The god Loki had helped her do this because he wanted Morginne for himself so Wulf ended up immortal and in the service of the goddess Artemis as a Dark-Hunter. After spending the night with a Dark-Huntress named Morginne, he somehow woke up with his soul swapped for hers. Wulf was a Viking raider in his human life. He said that as long as his blood lived so shall he or something close to that. In his anger, he had forgotten that he had bound his life and the fate of the world to his son. The prologue is a history of the Apollites and how Apollo cursed them. It is just one more thing I love about this author. I, myself, have to keep all kinds of notes to keep it straight but even then, they are chaotic and disorganized so I can’t find anything I need in them. She either has some mega elaborate timeline drawn out somewhere or she has an amazing memory about the stories she writes. I have no idea how Sherrilyn Kenyon keeps her timelines straight. There is one conversation that Wulf, the lead male character, had over the phone with Talon that also occurred in book number 2, Night Embrace, so I knew exactly when the events of this book were happening. The events of this book happen concurrently with books numbers 2 and 3. Some people don’t want to read all that first. I usually put a list of terms at the beginning of the review but I’ve decided to put it at the end so it isn’t so off-putting.

I am re-reading the series and I have to say that I am enjoying them just as much as I did the first time, if not more. This is the 4th book in the Dark-Hunter series.
