Although I cannot really recommend Dark Prince, I will be on the lookout for this new author’s next book. If you love vampire stories and if you are aware you may be going around in circles and if you don’t mind villains who are so weak and stupid they are easily overpowered by the centuries-old undead, then you might like this book. It was the worst case of coitus one sidedness I’ve ever seen.

Being a woman, I wanted to know what Raven was thinking and feeling when hunky Mikhail made love to her, but it never happened. That the hero was tortured and lonely, in need of the heroine’s love and trust, I got the first hundred times it was said, but words such as this were repeated in every chapter as though they were some kind of Carpathian mantra.Īlthough Mikhail and Raven have sex many times, each time is told from the hero’s point of view. The author has talent, but the story suffered from the circular plot and repetitive dialogue. Okay, so why didn’t I grade this book lower than I did? Because it had so much potential, it’s a shame it wasn’t better and the parts that were good, were really good. Cycle this information three or four times, and you then come to a quick and unremarkable ending. He drinks her blood as he has sex with her. Mikhail and Raven meet in their minds when she picks up on his thoughts as he considers ending his own life – seven hundred years without sex has driven him near the brink (I know it would put me in fit of pique, too). The problem is, Raven is not Carpathian, but is simply a human with incredibly strong powers of telepathy. Therefore, before Mikhail even meets Raven Whitney, he knows she is his life’s mate and that he must have her. Carpathians have one, and one only, life’s mate that they recognize immediately upon meeting them. According to the interesting premise of this story, a vampire is the result of a Carpathian gone mad, turned monster, due to the lack of a mate. Our hero, Mikhail Dubrinsky, is a Carpathian, which is not the same thing as a vampire. To set the record straight, Dark Prince is not really a vampire story. By the middle, you wonder where the book is going, and end up reading the whole thing only because you’re mildly curious about what happens to the characters. Then, about a third of the way through, you realize you’ve read these same words before, nothing new has happened, and not much action has taken place.

Dark Prince is an excellent example of a book that starts out so well, you’re led to believe you’ve hit on a pretty good thing.
