Dark Prince The Carpathians Dark Series Book 1 Christine Feehan 9780843955286 Books

Mikhail is the prince of Carpathians, a race that spawned the vampire myth. Raven is a beautiful, innocent, compassionate, most -insert every positive adjective to describe her here- telepathic human. There is no plot. The whole story revolves around Raven saying that she accepts everything that Mikhail is and why can't he do the same thing for her, but five seconds later she's threatening to leave him because she can't understand his culture. The heroine's stupidity is passed off as courage or compassion. Oh how courageous she is for taking a walk in the woods wearing only Mikhail's shirt and his cape, to comfort a male stranger. Oh how compassionate she is to want to ease his grief, despite being almost naked, alone in the woods. And how dare Mikhail be protective and uneasy about this scenario.

There is no suspense. They're hot for each other from the first page, get bound forever halfway through, encounter laughable resistance from pathetic villains in an attempt to give the reader a break from drowning in purple prose. Does no one in this book know how to speak normally? Everyone sounds so poetic and scholarly, it's ridiculous.

There is only flowery purple prose describing how perfect they look. Raven doesn't have black hair, it's blue-black and silky. Always silky. Mikhail's hair is "coffee-colored". What? Why can't it just be described as black? Sometimes the descriptions get too flowery that I literally laugh out loud from second hand embarrassment. Even the sex scenes are lulzy.

It took me three months to finish this book. I had to put it down and had no desire to pick it back up. Don't waste your money; rent or borrow instead.

Dark Prince The Carpathians Dark Series Book 1 Christine Feehan 9780843955286 Books Reviews

YOU DON’T HAVE TO READ THIS SERIES IN ORDER! However, expect slight spoilers here and there. For instance, I just listened to Dark Prince, the first in the series, and then Dark Possession and heard that Mikhail’s brother Jock has a life mate…yay…but that was the extent of it and there are very few other references but not enough to confuse you. If anything, it makes you make note of the Carpathian you want to know more about and in turn know which book to read next. LOL

****SPOILERS**** This was a great introduction into the Carpathian Series. A lot was explained and revealed without being over whelming about their race and the structure of the people as a whole. The way the information was woven into the plot and the characters and who they are and why they do some of the things they do made it seamless.

It starts with Mikhail wanting to go into an eternal rest, which is different. You don’t see many books starting with someone wanting to commit suicide…in a manner of speaking. Then he hears a little voice that in effect talks him off the edge. Great start to a series.

Though it is in “modern” times, the way it read and where they are, the Carpathian Mountains, which is real by the way, it seems more old world or medieval. Lots of trees and an old inn in the woods is what I see, but it is still vivid.

I like the introduction of all the characters and definitely find myself picking which ones I want to know more about and in turn making note of which books they are in. Because this was the first, the story was great. All they dynamics are woven in and you are not bogged down by the romance, violence or the excessive use of the work c**k. LOL Wonderful balance. Raven was not too much of a mush and she showed a little more back bone then some of the other women in Feehan’s stories. I liked her. Mikhail is, well Carpathian. LOL As you read the books, you will see that is an adjective all it’s own. LOL

I would definitely recommend.
I think people forget that this author was one of the breakout writers in paranormal/vampire romance back in the day. And that day was a loong, long time ago.

I read this series when there were only a handful of books and got an itch one night for a reread. Then saw some harsh reviews which I think were unfair. The romance paranormal/vampire genre has blossomed and changed since this novel was written. Are there some better ones out there? Sure. But considering the time in which it was written its still fantastic.

There's a history with a solid background on where the vampires came from and a plot/romance that moves along at a great pace. An alpha male that is trying to save his people and a woman that knows how to handle herself.

Still a good read many years after publication and still a fan.
