"This book started out a bit slow and so jam packed with world building that I was left spinning in circles. New species were introduced in every paragraph and it got a little frustrating but eventually everything seemed to fall into place beautifully. This book epitomizes everything I love about the PnR genre and I'm sooo excited for Shade's story. His method of breaking up with a girl...get caught in a twosome! LOL I can't wait to see where it all goes. Also I hear Gem and Kynan are going to be interwoven in the upcoming books which is great news. The chemistry between these two was off the charts. Overall, I loved all the characters and the plot line was solid. A great read through and through."

— RT Book Reviews (4 stars)" steamy. personally, i never like a man who is a sadist, i don't care what reason he's given, if he beats up women 'even for their own good' i think it's disgusting. that was a huge stumbling block for me. but i think it's book 3 or something and i appear to be in the minority, so whip away!

— Kristie, 2/6/2014" I read this for the first time about a year ago and was drawn into Underworld General. I rea it again about 2 weeks ago and had to order the rest. Absolutely loved it and could not pull myself away. I would get off work at 11p and stay up to 3am just reading. "

— Gina, 11/6/2013" A bit of a slow start but I loved it. The scenes were very sexy and very intense and I was very nice to meet Eidolon and his family as I have read the Lords of Deliverence books and couldn't figure out how they fit into the whole story. I can't wait to read about Shade and Wraithe. "

— Kathryn, 8/13/2013" There was a lot going on in this book but it was good. I'm not sure I will read the 2nd book. I don't enjoy ignoring out a BIG part of the story just to save it for the next book. "
— Kimberly, 7/12/2013" This book was awesome. If you like descriptive sex and details, and are into reading about demons and vamps, you will definitely enjoy this book. It has a great storyline.
