Publisher Description
Full of sensuality and the consuming anticipation of latent powers unleashed, Laurell K. Hamilton’s world of gods, shapeshifters, and immortal souls is unveiled in all of its supreme magnificence and its treacherous deceits in Seduced by Moonlight.
Merry Gentry has heard the whispers from her guards. They fear her even as they protect her, and who can blame them? When a long missing chalice appears to her as if summoned directly from her dreams, she awakens the dazzling magic that has slumbered within her guards for thousands of years. What once stripped their powers is now restoring them.
At the same time, her aunt, the Queen of Air and Darkness, has shifted her focus from her usual sadistic hobbies to an unwavering obsession with Merry. Despite spending each night with the Queen’s Ravens, her immortal guards, no heir has come from their decadent pleasures. And yet, Merry’s power is surging like never before.
Even as the guards cherish her for this unexpected gift, there are those who loathe her for it. The Unseelie Court has suffered for so long, and some would not have it weakened further by a half-mortal queen. Her enemies grow in number every day. But they do not know what she is capable of. Nor, for that matter, does she. . . .
Customer Reviews
Good writing, just not for me
Laurell K Hamilton is a great writer, and I love her descriptive imagery. She really knows how to pull her readers in. It’s clear that this series is very well thought out in terms of world building, but honestly not much happens in this book.I read about 75% of the way before deciding that I didn’t really want to read anymore. There are some good scenes, but most of the book is spent talking about what’s *going* to happen, and the importance of it, rather than stuff *actually* happening. I guess maybe she saved it for the very end of the book? Idk. If you like buildup then maybe this book is for you, it just wasn’t for me personally.
