As a huge Dark-Hunter fan this one didn’t cut it with me. I was very disappointed. Again this one is nothing like the books pre Acheron. I wish if the books are going to keep up with this pace Kenyon would go ahead and finish the series.
Again you get a lot of new of new characters you have to keep up with like this series doesn’t have enough then there is the added of all the different new gods and new demons. Like does anyone know who Lazarous is? There is so much Mythology going o More...

OMG! Just amazing! I loved this installment, although there were 3 or 4 I liked much more. But to be the 5th in a series with more than 20 books in it sounds pretty amazing to me,lol.
The plot was amazing, so much better than the previous installment about Fang, even though it was with the same characters and in the same place. Dev was a super hot and entertaining hero. And Sam was the ass-kicking heroin I just love to read about. It could have been better in the romance department b More...

This, for me, was a 4 star..possibly a 4 1/2 ....I LOVED it! I'm not really sure what some have meant by there being too much world building or too many characters going on...I didn't think that there was anymore than past DH books..my feeling on that... is that if Sherrilyn Kenyon is planning on continuing this series for sometime yet..which it sure seems to be going that way...yay!!...it is kind of neccessary for her to introduce all of these new characters..for possible future books...yes!...

Really wish I could have read this on my iPod, but the price is too high. Thank G-d the library comes through when publishers get too greedy.
After finishing I am really thankful for the library, because I would have been pissed at paying money for the lousy formatting (huge margins) and bad editing. Several sentences with the wrong word, so they didn't make sense, and even grammatical errors (I hear the e copy was just as bad).

Damn!
That's my first reaction.
Damn!
I loved this book! And, while hyperbole wants to spew forth of "I luv it, I luv it, I luv it!" I'll endeavor to resist. Dev and Sam were two very strong, beautifully written characters that I've always liked from previous books. They were such an amazing couple, and in reading their story, you could truly feel the emotion between the two. They didn't strike me at all as being paper thin in character or personality. More...

I like were-hunters and am pretty partial to bear shifters lately (Laurenston had a couple of good ones too). Dev is one of the four gorgeous identical quads belonging to the family that's run Sanctuary. Dev is sexy, snarky, and his humor makes the book a lot of fun. But beneath the attitude, there's some pain to give him depth too.
Yes, there are some PNR cliches in No Mercy since the heroine Amazon DarkHunter Samia is psychometric and Dev's touch is soothing whereas she can't bear More...

This is only the second Dark Hunter book I've read and the first one was awhile back. I am so glad I read this one as I loved it! Dev and Samia are both great characters. Dev was such a funny guy and always managed to see the humor in just about any situation. Samia was a former Amazonian queen so of course she was totally kick butt and still had a softer side. There is a lot going on and a lot of background I think I was missing by not having read the previous Dark Hunter books but if anyt

I love Samia’s character, she isn’t wimpy or a damsel in distress, she’s got spunk and is pretty kickass, even her name is bad ass like the Dark-Hunter she is, Sam Savage. Sam has the ability to see into other people thoughts which causes her trouble when getting hot and steamy with a man...However she is unable to read Dev. When Dev told Sam what his full name was the moment that followed made me laugh:
“”Devereaux Peltier”. She savoured the syllables of his name that flowed and rolled fr

Publisher: St. Martin's Press
Purchased: Bought on Amazon
What I Loved: Dev and Sam are up there in my favorite couples for this series. Dev is such a great smart *ss but he also sees the bright side of every situation. He is protective, kind (though don't let him know that), and beyond likable. Sam is a strong woman and character. The more you learn about her, the more you know her and Dev would be a great match. I loved the "Dogs" too: Ethon, Scorpio, Chi to name a More...

Dark-Hunter novels are absorbing and action packed, sexy, and found in a well imagined world with lots of terrific characters. This book is no exception. The Dark-Hunter world is becoming more dangerous and menacing as the Daimons have found a way to walk in daylight. Even the method itself threatens the safety and world of the Dark-Hunter.

Review by Jen: Well, anyone who has been a fan of the blog since we started it, knows that I've read most of what Sherrilyn Kenyon has written and absolutely love her Dark-Hunter series. In fact, I've hooked many a friend into reading them. If you want to see some of my past reviews of her books, go here. And now on to my review...

Plot: 4 Stars
First off, I have to say that this is my first Kenyon novel and I was a bit tentative to jump in headfirst this far into a series. But having done it with other authors and not been completely lost, I figured I'd give it a shot. And I definitely wasn't disappointed. While there were minor details or in reference to minor characters or references to certain events in the past that could've been expanded on, I never once felt lost or confused. The author did a great job of givin More...

I have always liked Dev. The sarcastic humor in him definitely calls to the sarcastic b*tch in me. Add to that his huge frame, blond curls, and blue eyes, and I am a goner. I don't remember much of Samia, but what we got in this book I really enjoyed. I liked the two of them together, but it did seem to happen a lot faster than it had in previous books.
What I am totally against is the mid-book relapse into the demon realms. I don't get Thorn, I don't understand the Hellchasers, and I More...

I have been a fan of the Dark Hunter series for a very long time, in fact many years ago it was my first foray into the world of the paranormal, well OK I had read fantasy and science fiction for years, but I had never come across paranormal romance before and with Night Pleasures I lapped it up! Went out and got Fantasy Lover and Night Embrace (which were the only other 2 out) and devoured them. I then learned what it was like to stalk the postman! So yes, these books do have a special place i

4.5 ดาวค่ะ
ชอบ Dev กับ Samia มากๆ เลยค่ะ ชอบคาแรกเตอร์สองคนนี้มากกว่า แฟง และเอมี่อีก แต่รู้สึกว่าเรื่องราวความรักของเขามาน้อยไปหน่อยค่ะ ตัวละครเยอะแยะมากมายเกินไป บางฉากบางตัวไม่เห็นจำเป็นเลย สงสัยฉากเดียวกับคุณ Ning ไม่เห็นบอกเหตุผลที่ซาวิทาร์ไปขู่แบบนั้น หรือว่าแค่ห้ามว่า พวกเวอร์อยู่ในอาณัติของฉันอย่าข้ามเขต ถ้าแค่นั้น ฉากนี้ไม่เห็นจำเป็นต้องมีก็ได้นี่นา เพราะไม่สำคัญอะไร

จำไม่ได้เลยว่า เดฟเป็นคนตลกขนาดนี้เลยเหรอ??
น่ารักมาก ๆ พ่อหมีได้ใจไปเต็ม ๆ
นางเอกบู๊จัด เก่งมาก เล่นเอาหนุ่ม ๆ ม้วนเสื่อกลับบ้านไปเลย
ขอบ่นนิดนึง
นิค.. โตซะทีเหอะ ..
ดีว่าตอนจบแก้ตัวได้นิดนึงนะ ... นิดเดียวเท่านั้นนะยะ ..
เบื่อแกมากมาย

I am so glad I can enjoy this series again!! Really liked Dev and Samia...Kenyon has a talent for writing kick-butt heroines that have a softer side and don't make me want to kick them in the teeth. I wish the book would've been a little more focused...it seemed all over the place to me. There are so many characters at this point, it's hard to keep track.

This is the 19th book in the Dark Hunter series and it remains true to form. I do enjoy this series but I find most of the books too similar. I guess that is to be expected with 19 books and counting in a single series.
That being said, No Mercy had a few different twists. I really enjoyed Dev and Sam as a team. I found both characters strong and extremely funny together.

I am a raving fan of Sherrilyn. I actually started out reading I think the 16th book in the Dark Hunters series and fell in love. I have devoured. I believe almost everyone of the rest of that series. I was asked to read and review No Mercy and since before taking my haitus I hadn't gotten a chance to review it. I guess my hiatus was a good thing.

Wow, this is such a great book in the series and she keeps coming up with unique pairings. Her mythology grows constantly, but is always consistent. It's wonderful (but don't read it if you haven't read the rest of the series). Spoilers below, only if you've not read previous novels.
The particulars include her over arching plot, the lives of the other characters, the romance of the book, and the battle of the book. Sherilyn Kenyon is such a great weaver of stories. The romances a More...

Samia “Sam” Savage is a Were Hunter. She lives up to the reputation that Were Hunters have…tough exterior and good at their job.
Dev Peltier has guarded the Sanctuary along with his fellow were bear brothers and sister for a long time. Dev has seen a lot of things. Dev is a bit unprepared when he meets Sam. Her being a Were Hunter makes her his enemy. The only thing Dev feels towards Sam is attraction. A powerful evil is brewing. One that could destroy Sanctuary and everyone with it. More...

Back Ms Kenyon when I found the first Hunter Book, it was about a Love God locked in a book. This was how the Dark Hunters started...I have loved and followed you and the 'guys' through thick and thin. The stories were averaging 5 star to Outstanding stars...
I can accept that this book is a 'doorway' to their future, I can accept that you are working on other projects...But please do not short change us the reader.
I will never complain about priceing of books...It is my right More...

If you have NEVER read Sherrilyn Kenyon you have not READ! - if you have missed her Dark Hunter series, this is the newest book, and you need to get caught up cause you are missing out!! One thing about Kenyon's writing is it truly grips you starting with the first page. In her Dark Hunter series, she has added a Greek mythology twist to her story line. We have a race of Soul-eaters, Daimons, that must eat to live past 27 years of age, after being cursed by the great god Apollo. To save the h

Hunter’s Review
If you are like me, you have been waiting for some time for Dev’s book. After Archeron, which I loved, this is the book I have most anticipated reading. I loved Dev and Sam. They were a wonderful couple, with hot chemistry, and I adored how they made each other smile and laugh almost from moment one.
When Sam realizes she can touch Dev with no ramifications, its an amazing moment. Really special. And an example of why Ms. Kenyon is such an extraordinary au More...

I really enjoyed this addition to the Dark Hunter series. Samia, the heroine, is a Dark Hunter and no slouch to constantly need rescuing. Nor does she have a chip on her shoulder with something to prove that makes her prone to stupid mistakes. Her issues are believable and in this book she works through them in a believable way.
The humor in this book is on point throughout, even groaning at itself when the joke is bad. Dev is likeable, tough but not overly macho, tender but no pa More...
