Additional No Rest for the Wicked (The Immortals After Dark, Book 2) Information

In this next installment in the Immortals After Dark Series, USA Today Bestselling author Kresley Cole delivers a scorching tale about a forbidding vampire who lives in the shadows and the beautiful assassin who hunts him there.

A soldier weary of life . . .

Centuries ago, Sebastian Wroth was turned into a vampire -- a nightmare in his mind -- against his will. Burdened with hatred and alone for ages, he sees little reason to live. Until an exquisite, fey creature comes to kill him, inadvertently saving him instead.

A Valkyrie assassin dispatched to destroy him . . .

When Kaderin the Cold Hearted lost her two beloved sisters to a vampire attack long ago, a benevolent force deadened her sorrow -- accidentally extinguishing all of her emotions. Yet whenever she encounters Sebastian, her feelings -- particularly lust -- emerge multiplied. For the first time, she's unable to complete a kill.

Become competitors in a legendary hunt.

The prize of the month-long contest is powerful enough to change history, and Kaderin will do anything to win it for her sisters. Wanting only to win her, forever, Sebastian competes as well, taking every opportunity -- as they travel to ancient tombs and through catacombs, seeking relics around the world -- to use her new feelings to seduce her. But when forced to choose between the vampire she's falling for and reuniting her family, how can Kaderin live without either?

What Customers Say About No Rest for the Wicked (The Immortals After Dark, Book 2):

These books do have a lot going on in them with the whole paranormal world being much larger than in other books I've read.

You can't start a novel with the leading man being suicidal and expect me NOT to like it.

Yes, Kaderin was annoying in the beginning, but once her "feelings" kicked in, she became likable. He was so alone for so long, finally he found his mate. All-in-all, this book is a keeper. What a great story. My heart went out for Sebastian.

To see what sort of reading perspective I come from, I love the following paranormal romance authors: Christine Feehan, Larissa Ione (Sydney Croft), J.R. If you like paranormal romance with great humor I think you should give Kresley Cole's Immortal After Dark Series a chance. Owen, Lora Leigh, Alexis Morgan, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Susan Sizemore, Lara Adrian, and Lynn Viehl. Ward, Robin D. Her creative twist on werewolves, vampires, valkyrie, demons, and witches is imaginative and highly entertaining. Take a look inside her book and see if you agree.

Recommendation - start with the first book for sure. I started the series with this book and then found out there is a previous installment. All in all, the series is great, but don't judge only based on this book. Liked the heroine, strong willed and ready for action at all times. On the other hand, the vampire hero is quite whiney, lost and weak.
