While searching for a demon in 1893 Savannah Aristos (a demon fighting Spartan Immortal) met and fell in love with Juliana. Aristos believes Juliana committed suicide by jumping into the Savannah River because she found him repulsive when she saw him in his altered form. (In their altered eagle form all the Spartan Immortals grow in size and have wings) Juliana did not commit suicide but was cursed. As a ghost she continued to love Aristos and wait for his return. For over a hundred years Aristo...more
Purchased this book via Kindle for Blackberry yesterday. I'd forgotten about the Spartans and the Deadly Nightshades. Really good so far.
06/02/2010. Finished Red Demon and I really liked it. I love series that do a good job of focucing on a central plot but also answers questions that have lingered since that last installment. Knight has a wonderful way of bringing closure to characters issues as well as presenting readers with something else to look forward to. The feud with Ares continues and...more

Deidre Knights new book Red Demon from the Gods of Midnight series continues to take us into the world of immortal Spartan warriors fighting for humans while struggling with their own desires. You know the story about the Spartans don’t you? Well if not let me refresh your memory. Around the time 490 BC, the Greeks desperate to stop the invading Persian enlist King Leonidas of Sparta to stand against these invaders. The battle at Thermopylae ended with every last Spartan fighting until they were...more
Immortal spartan gets a chance at the love he lost a hundred years ago when the ghost of his beloved makes a deal and gains corporeal form.
The story between Ari and Julia was fine but I found the other pairs more compelling King Leonidas and the blue haired oracle and also Mason and Niko (yes m/m but no m/m sex). There was just a great deal more pathos to these other pairs. One thing that bothered me a bit, was that there was alot of interrupted clinches between all the pairs in the books - thi...more

Since reading the first 2 books in the Midnight Gods series last summer I knew that this series was an absolute keeper. The wait felt like an eternity and when the time was finally there I realized with a shock that I couldn't afford the book. HORROR! Luckily the wonderful pattepoilue took pity with me and my months-long-book-abstinence and surprised me with this one. Thanks so much hon. You are made of awesome.
So I couldn't wait to start this book and from the first few pages I knew that I woul...more

3.5 stars - This book took me forever to read. I kept putting it down and reading other books. I just had a hard time getting into it. I don't know why because I loved the previous book in this series, Red Kiss. The second half of the book was better and I finally was able to dig into it, but to be honest I was just not that interested in Aristos and Juliana. The side stories of Mason/Nikos and Sable/Sophie were actually much more interesting to me and I found myself reading just to get more on...more
Decent book to read, but if I had limited time, I would pass it up for others. I think mostly because the author hits one of my major irritations in romance books. She keeps stressing and stressing about how the female protagonists are virgins and just "so innocent". It just bothers me. Otherwise, fun book, but not a great book.
I didn't like this one as much as the previous two in the series...too religious. The battle between good and evil is very pronounced and overly religious. I did like Aristos who was so in love that it was almost unmanly but he did lose Juliana for a century so I can certainly understand his reaction. Interestingly enough, Juliana was from the victorian age and even in current times, kept her victorian mannerisms except when they were getting it on...then she was pure slut. Not a bad book but no...more
Ok..so this is my fave of the series so far.. I know I know, there's only 3 books... but still.. I think there's something about these romance series and their 3rd books.... in most cases the 3rd book is my fave, lol.. I think it could've used a few more plots against them, to test their love and all that.. I like trouble.. I'm looking forward to the next one for sure!! Keep it up Deidre!!
The main female, Juliana, was very annoying. The fact she was from the Victorian age thrown into the present completely threw me. The only reason I kept reading were the other bystories. I wanted more of Nik and Mason, and Sable and Sophie.
I didn't think it was as good as the others in the series. I liked the secondary stories a little more then the main story. I cannot wait for the next one though!
Love this series, can't wait for the next book! So much happens in each story and they all lead you to the next one with baited breath!
Good series.
Another good book in the series
Really enjoyed this one - the series is heating up. See my review here http://bookclubs.barnesandnoble.com/t...
