Nightwalker by Jacquelyn Frank (Netgalley) eARC Review!




BLURB:

From New York Times bestselling author Jacquelyn Frank comes the final chapter in the Nightwalkers saga! As the momentous showdown with a powerful demon unfolds, a passionate encounter breaks the ultimate taboo.


Kamen is a Bodywalker, an ancient soul reborn in one human host after another. He’s also a prisoner of his own kind: for it was Kamen who released Apep, the deadly god who threatens the existence of their world. To atone for this grievous error, Kamen accepts an urgent mission: to convince the other nations of the Nightwalkers to set aside their centuries-old conflicts and band together. If he fails, all will be lost. And no tribe presents a greater challenge than the Wraiths, the spectral beings who are feared and despised for their lethal deathtouch.



Kamen makes first contact with a stunning, ghostly pale beauty named Geneviève. Part Wraith and part human, scorned as a half-breed, Viève shares the hunger for redemption—and for connection. Her scintillating touch holds the kiss of death, and yet it makes Kamen feel more alive than ever. Soon his lips are pressed against hers, sending Viève into fits of desire and forging a bond that breaches the divide between them. Now they must unite all the Nightwalkers, from Vampire and Shadowdweller to Djynns, and fast—for Apep is ready for war.





MY REVIEW:


*This is a Netgalley eARC Review*


I have to say I enjoy this mysterious world of the Nightwalkers. I love how we dig deep and the story almost has a mythological feel to it. It has a dark feel with just hints of lightness to it. Both male and female characters are well developed and each are unique in there own way.

The one thing I think there was....a lot of was information. As the author tries to play back what new readers should know about the Nightwalkers, it had almost a repetitiveness that was a bit much at times and took  away from the main story. However, I understand why the author did this and I accepted it for the most part. Once we get past all the repeat info, the story was good and was easy to like. I like the author's unique way of writing and thought it was spaced nicely, so it didn't end to quickly or felt like it was missing pieces.

Miss Frank's World of the Nightwalkers is breathtaking and mysterious and imaginative. It has a compelling plot and wonderful characters.  Miss Frank's Nightwalker world is thrilling and action packed with the spicy romance we romance lovers crave! I give this a FOUR SHOOTING STARS!
