Intrigued.”Ĭhristine Feehan was one of the first to hit the vampire fiction scene and helped to pave the path for others to follow. Who could speak telepathically other than one of his own kind? The puzzle made no sense, but it mattered little to him. Who gave a damn? Something–no, someone–had penetrated the depths of his pain and interested him enough to respond. He realized he was holding his breath, needing the contact. Raven soon discovers that she may not only serve as Mikhail’s salvation and soul mate, but perhaps the key to the salvation of the entire Carpathian race. He is intercepted by a human, Raven Whitney, who has used her psychic abilities to help police hunt serial killers. The story opens with Mikhail Dubrinsky, Prince of the Carpathians, contemplating suicide after centuries of leading a life without love. I was eager to see how her fantasy world stacked up against some of the other bestselling authors in the vampire genre, such as Kim Harrison, Stephenie Meyer, and Guillermo del Toro.

I had been familiar with the name of #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan, but I hadn’t to date read any of her many books. When I received a copy for review, I was looking forward to the opportunity to read it.

An author’s cut special edition of Christine Feehan’s first novel in the Carpathian vampire series, Dark Prince, has recently hit bookshelves.
