Cool...I did not know about the giveaways ! I entered in , hope I win!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!

[Dhfan4life, Honey Bun]

No prob, I hope you win too. I've put in for a few giveaways myself and have yet to win. But I'm still keeping my fingers crossed though.

Do you know anybody that has won any books in the giveaways?

[Dhfan4life, Honey Bun]

From here? Hmm, not sure per se. I mean I have another friend that says she has won a couple of books through giveaways but not sure if they are GR giveaways or not. Pretty random winners it seems. But I'd really like to see how it pans out for a SK book and actual SK fans entering. As I've entered for a few other UF, advice, and other such genres and no luck. But I hardly win stuff anyway, lol.

[Dhfan4life, Honey Bun]

Will finally start on friday.

[Denise]

Hurry, hurry, so we can talk about it!

[[deleted user]]

actually reading two The Retribution and next the Guardian

[Dhfan4life, Honey Bun]

Haha, I will Denise. I hate being out of the loop. So will definitely be on it in no time. :)

[Denise]

I noticed a comment by Jaden that I thought was an interesting hint. See if you notice it.

I might be able to spot it as this is a first read through for me. But if ya ask me in several months then the deets might get a little fuzzy to me, lol. But I sitll manage to remember most things.

[Steph]

The Guardian was brilliant. Seth is very high up on my favourites list. Hope you like it Dhfan4life.
@Denise. I noticed it too. Can't wait to find out more.

[Tempi]

@Denise and Steph. Is that (view spoiler)[when he 'fessed up that he was a warlord , or when he was in the hall with Noir and the "convo" hinted that Jaden was once equal to Noir powerwise, or was it when Jaden said if he leavs someone close to him will be hurt? (apparently that someone is Verlyn), or is it when he said the there isn't enything immortal that he can't kill (which brings many questions) (hide spoiler)] Just to make sure we are at the same page.

[Steph]

I thought it was you're third answer.. But all of them could be right lol
Denise? What one were you thinking?

[Tempi]

The sad thing is that there isn't any development on the Jaden/Jared thing. I guess we just have to wait some more. Damn. As for the rest of the questions from The Guardian we could switch the threads and I will be back in a jiffy to rock your world :)

[Denise]

#3! #3!

[Denise]

Although I did think all the tidbits we got were interesting .

[Tempi]

Oh, OK cool. (view spoiler)[Looks like Verlyn is Noir and Azuras lavaridge to keep Jaden on his leash (hide spoiler)]

[Steph]

This might sound silly but who is Verlyn? Can someone remind me?

[Tempi]

Not silly at all, Steph I mean the only reason I know who is he is cuz I'm mostly interested in Jaden , from the moment he showed up nothing else matterd anymore lol.Verlyn is one of the primary gods of light when the First War was fought.

[Steph]

oh I remember him now lol. Too many facts bobbing about my poor brain :)

[Denise]

I didn't remember him, where was he first mentioned?

[Steph]

In The Guardian Denise. He was sent by Noir to bring Seth back.

[Denise]

Ok, I thought the way y'all were talking, he had been in another book. I noticed him in Guardian, I thought the similarities between him & Jaden were interesting.

[Tempi]

Yeah it's tough to keep up sometimes. What is interesting is that Azura said that they defanged Jaden, but as I recalled he had fangs in Dream Chaser and flashed them a few times. Must be his punishment for leting go of Simon's soul, those bastards.The other interesting is that Jaden said he had a choise , unlike Seth or Lydia who were born the way they are.
Verlyn was mentioned in (not be name) in Dream Worrior, when they talked about Cam and Rezar, they are sort of a family or a brotherhood + sister :)

[Denise]

I thought the defang & emasculated remark by Azura was a metaphor.

[Denise]

I agree. Jaden, sigh.......

[Carol]

I have just read Retribution, I so enjoyed it. From the different comments I did have a negative vibe on this book but I did not get that form the book. I thought the heroine was sufficiently brave and feminine and Jesse was hilariously stereo-typical of his background. The story was fascinating and gave a marvellous insight to the American Indian beliefs. reallly liked!! Cant wait until Time ~Untime

[Dhfan4life, Honey Bun]

Denise I noticed all the points that Tempi had pointed out there. And have to admit the most striking one for me was the same level of power with Noir bit. Cause that made me think back to the primal source of powers that was talked about in Dream Warrior and how from that the Malachaii and Seraphii were on opposing sides.

[Tempi]

Indeed that it is quite striking. But I don't know and I can't figure out where does that leave him. He's not a malachai or a sephirii or maybe as crazy as it sounds he's bouth. If Azura is feeing power from him and Noir feeds from the malachai that puts him somewere around malachai territory. I mean why does she feed from him specifically? Could be cause he's a slave , but that's doubtful cause they have other slaves and she ain't feeding from them so she wouldn't become comatose like Noir did when Adarian left him. He drinks blood and has fangs so that would make him a demon of sorts and bouth the malchai and sephirii are demons. He admited that he's done many selfish deeds and that he has a "monster" in him , kind of like a malachai does. So if he drinks demon blood, has fangs, could kill anything immortal and absorb their power that can only mean he's a malachai. But that could't be possible cause after the war they left only one malachai (Adarian) and one sephirii (Jared) and as it seems Jaden has direct blood connection with Verlyn , who is (or was) the opposite of Noir, Azura and the malachai. I will assume that Verlyn is most likely his father or brother , but they are definitely related since they both have one brown and one green eye.I'm stickin my neck out and say that Verlyn is Jadens father , which would explane what Thorn said about Jaden in Bad Moon Rising :"He has a slave collar and an aura of power that smacks of a godhood he doesn’t have." So if on one side he's a gods progeny then on the other side could he's mother be a malachai or a sephirii. Back then when the war was fought there were many malachai and sephirii bouth women and men. And even if he is half god/half malachai or sephirii how could he escape the deal with all the malachai and sephrii being killed after the war? Maybe it has something to do with why Jared betrayed his brethren. Meybe he did it to save Jaden from the executions.
Wow I didn't expect it to be so long :) Anyways my theory probably will be shattered by the next books , but it's the closest I can get to explaining the whole Jaden deal.

[Dhfan4life, Honey Bun]

All that could be possible Tempi. But have to keep in mind too that the primal source is like the creative of all beings at the start of time. So although the malachai and seraphii are two of the bigger components. We still aren't fully sure what else the source created and spit out.

As for the Jaden and Verlyn connection that could be a possibility too. But I think they are both some time of higher up guardian war lords themselves at one point or another. Cause although their eyes are the same color they are the opposites of each other. As it said where Verlyn's one eye was brown Jaden's was green and vice versa for the other eye too. So could have came from the vat of mysterious primal source goo. But still be on opposing sides.

[Tempi]

Indeed that could be a possibility. SK said that The primordial soup is big on balance so for every god of light and goodness there is a bad one so they complete each other. Like Azuras opposite is Cam. So I don't know about Jaden being the opposite of Verlyn, that would kind of make him evil. We need more facts not just some vague conversations.

[Dhfan4life, Honey Bun]

True enough.

[Lauren]

Recently finished and enjoyed it. Loved Vane and Fury!
Now starting - I've been looking forward to this one for a long time.

[Cindyg]

I loved Seize the Night...Enjoy!!!

[Liz Barrons-Kattalakis-Quiakides-Tehrror]

Seize the Night is AWESOME...LOVE Val & Tabby!!!!!!!!

[Lauren]

Thanks! I'm really enjoying it so far.

[Kat]

I love them all. Acheron's story is the best though. ;p
Reading No Mercy. :D

[Lauren]

Finished Seize the Night and loved. Definitely the best romance in the series so far. I loved Valerius and Tabitha together. Now I have to decide if Valerius overtakes Zarek as my favorite Dark-Hunter.

[Becky]

Hmmm... I'm just starting , sounds like I'm in for a good one :)

[Maria]

I just finish reading The Guardian then I will be reading Born of Shadows, I am just waiting for the paperback version to come out next week...
