  <default_description>In the kingdom of Gaell, the scholarly Moira has taken up the sword of her people.  Now, as queen, she must prepare her subjects for the greatest battle they will ever fight - against an enemy more vicious than any they have seen.  For Lilith, the most powerful vampire in the world, has followed the circle of six through time to Gaell.

Moira also has a personal score to settle.  Vampires killed her mother - and now, she is ready to exact her revenge.  But there is one vampire to whom she would trust her soul...

Cian was changed by Lilith centuries ago.  But now, he stands with the circle.  Without hesitation, he will kill others of his kind - and has earned the respect of sorcerer, with, warrior and shape-shifter.  But he wants more than respect from Moira - even though his desire for her makes him vulnerable.  For how can a man with an eternity to live love a woman whose life is sure to end - if not by Lilith's hand, then by the curse of time?</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Began reading this book not knowing there were two books before it and that it was part of a trilogy, but I read it anyway. I normally don't like to sumbit to big name authors who come out with a book every week, but Nora Roberts has proven herself witty with a sense of originality that I haven't fo...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/24912509">more...</a>]]></body>

Should some say differently, hey - go ahead and say so... not like I'll listen, LOL!<br/><br/>The end of the Circle Trilogy couldn't have been better.

    <body><![CDATA[I think the second half of this book was my most favorite part of the whole trilogy.  And that was, for the most part, because of Cian, the vampiric hero.  'Cause Moira?  The heroine?  Wasn't too terribly fond of her.  I never, throughout the whole trilogy warmed up to her character.  Cian, however,...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/17278815">more...</a>]]></body>

To beat Lilith the vampire queen that plans to rule all of the realms in life and take over. The circle of six; Larkin, Moira, Cian, Hoyt, Glenna, and Blair fight a battle against Lilith.

    <body><![CDATA[I can't believe how much I liked this trilogy.   It could be called a little formulaic (It's built much like the sign of 7 trilogy)and I have to wonder if she's borrowed a few ideas from other recent popular books (like Twilight). BUT-That said-I LOVED it.   It was the most FUN thing I have read sin...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/61439841">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was the best book of the trilogy - mostly because they finally got to the battle that the series had been leading up to.  I think part of the reason why I could read it even though it was so reliant upon magic as part of the story is that I just like the way <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/11139.Mary_Shelley" title="Mary Shelley">Nora Roberts</a> writes.

    <body><![CDATA[Third in this trilogy, and I enjoyed it much more than the second. I found the scene with Davey's trick quite moving in a weird way (not wanting to create a spoiler here). I kept wondering how things would be resolved in the end, and it felt a bit like an anti-climax.
