Probably why I stopped reading in the middle, as much as I enjoyed the individual books, the pattern becomes fairly obvious and more than a bit repetitious six books in. They are holed up in a castle outside of Budapest, trying to avoid messing with humanity as much as they possibly can.īecause this series is paranormal romance, the stories do have a pattern. The humans who are hosting those demons are sick and tired of causing death and destruction wherever they go. Even being an immortal badass gets tiresome if you do it long enough. In the series, it is now the 21st century, and those warriors have been around for centuries.
Those are the Lords of the Underworld, the 12 now immortal warriors who are each sharing a body and a consciousness with an extremely malevolent demon. Flying seems to be assumed, at least in the versions I remember.īut what if, and don’t most interesting stories start with “what if?”, what if instead of just disembodied evil spirits flying around, those demons took over bodies, specifically in this case the bodies of the warriors who mistakenly opened the box. While the myth says that the demons all escaped and went out to wreck havoc among humanity, that myth doesn’t get into the details of exactly how they went out. The series has a pretty neat premise, all to do with Pandora, her box, and all the demons that were trapped inside. I read the first several books in this series when they came out. His touch could mean the end for her, but resisting her is the hardest battle he’s ever fought-and the only battle he fears he can’t win.

Carnal pleasure is utterly forbidden, and though he has always overcome temptation with an iron will, his control is about to shatter. Torin’s every touch causes sickness and death-and a worldwide plague.
