Damali Richards knows all about a blood rush. The kind that happened when she first went skin-to-skin with former vampire Carlos Rivera. Or the kind that happened on the streets of Philadelphia, when her crew took on the devil’s own. Now, Damali, Carlos, and the Guardian team are recovering in the Arizona desert, trying to hold it all together and find out how much love, and how much war, they still need to make…until the demon consort Lilith changes everything. The Damned are seeping out from below, and a new contagion is spreading simply by touch. For Damali and Carlos, time is running out. With Armageddon near, the ultimate truths lie strewn from a shaken underworld to the pristine mountains of Tibet, where the two lovers will approach a pinnacle of power—and the scintillating, shocking secret of salvation.... When Hell freezes over | Customer Rating: | Prologue: The two Neterus have come full circle. Damali's destiny has been magnified, Carlos has reached his acme, and they have married. For seven days, Eve's son Cain has been agonizing over the haunting scent of the ripening Neteru and grieving her marriage. His throne in the Land of Nod is decimated, he is teetering on the brink of insanity, and his rage has no bound.
Cain crosses the ice slicked bridge, in the seventh level of Hell leading to the Vampire Council Chambers; he has come to claim his throne. He is immediately enraged as he reads the last name etched on the black marble back: 'Carlos Rivera'. Once the throne is re-captured, Cain wants to sire, and is hell bent on claiming Damali. Lilith, consort to the Un-Named One, finally has a male Neteru on the Chairman's throne and ever the treacherous vixen, has made herself his ally.
Issues: Before Carlos and Damali wed, Damali welcomed a 'throat nick,' laced with seduction from Cain, now there is a DNA connection between the three and the marriage could be annulled. For maybe the first time in his life, Carlos is sobered. Payback is a mother! But there's no time for personal recriminations, the team must be readied for the war of wars, one that will include one of their fiercest nemeses. When Cain descended to the bowels of hell, Eve's spirit went cold, all reproduction ceased, but not before Damali was caught in an abyss. The Queens have orders from on high to back away from Damali until they know she has not compromised the Gates of Heaven. Carlos is a marked man and must extend beyond everything he has learned. Cain wages war, the team is fatally wounded and key guardians are fluxing.
Without warning THE WICKED captures the imagination as Banks takes readers from Nod, to the Vampire Chambers, to topside, to the Council of the Kings and Queens in one cataclysmic swoop. Banks shows no mercy on the mental faculties of the characters or readers. Before either can catch their collective breaths, they are in demon battles with no time for strategy. Adjectives to encompass how THE WICKED imprisoned me are diminishing as this series grows to `battle bulk' proportions.
Reviewed by aNN of The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers | Ghetto Talk | Customer Rating: | | Maybe I am too old for this book, granted, I didn't read the first in the series, and apparently, this is one of those series where you need to read them in consecutive order, but I can't get past page 30. I must be too old, I need a dictionary to understand all the ghetto talk, I spend more time translating the ghetto talk to older person talk to really get into the book. I guess I am not the 20-something that this series is aimed at. I am wondering if it was written in modern English if I could read more of it, even if I haven't read the previous installments in the series. | Always entertaining, never disappointing | Customer Rating: | | In this next saga of the Vampire Huntress series, Damali, Carlos and her Guardian team are again, up against Lilith and the Chairman. Their mission is to retrieve the Book of the Damned and behead the Chairman. All the other reviews have described the plot to this book, so I will only say L.A. Bank's books are always captivating. I cannot say enough good things about her writing. I find her books mesmerizing. After every book in her series, when I have finished each book, I am always left with a wondeful feeling of awe. If you haven't read this series, you are truly missing out. The reason I gave this book four instead of five stars, was this book didn't seem to have as much action as the others. A lot of time was spent on the internal struggles within the Guardian team. I have the Forsaken yet to read and will be buying her next book, The Wicked. Read this series, you won't be sorry. | Thinks are Really heating up in this series | Customer Rating: | In "The damned" things really heat up for Damali and her Guardian team. Hell Goes on the offensive in this one and nothing will be the same when its over. This is a must read if you into the Vampire Huntress Series or love a good thriller. Enjoy and STAY IN THE LIGHT!!! | LOVING THIS SERIES!!! | Customer Rating: | Chaos abounds in the latest in the fabulous L.A. Banks vampire huntress series. The portals of hell have been opened...and the result are demons walking Earth, resulting in murderous behavior of the most heinous kind. The Damned, released by Lilith, are spreading their infection simply by touch. Even the Guardians are affected, albeit to a lesser degree; the "thrill is gone" from Damali and Carlos's relationship, and the tension rises when Damali finds herself thinking of Jose in the physical sense, and there is serious distrust throughout the Guardian team...especially between the Neterus. In order to stop the pandemic, the Guardians must find and behead both Lilith and the Chairman...and Carlos must retrieve the Book of the Damned and return it to the Light....before souls everywhere, including Guardian souls, are lost forever. Never one to disappoint, Banks has delivered another winner in her series....anxiously awaiting The Forsaken. |
