Hell has opened the portal to earth so warrior Elizabeth Phoenix heads to Los Angeles to close it before the Apocalypse Happens. However, as she battles to control her dueling nature, the leader of the light Liz is stunned as someone long dead is alive. Still she must prevent the Varcolacs half dragons from causing the ultimate eclipse that will plunge the earth into total darkness as the sun and moon will be destroyed. Sill even if she wins, Liz sentences many to death.

At the same she struggles with simply saving the world, she wonders about her relationships. Her former lover Jimmy Sanducci returns and her mentor Navajo shaman Sawyer seems to want her on a more personal level. Perhaps it is all her doomsday fighting, but she is unsure whether she trusts either of the men in her life.

The latest Phoenix Chronicles (see Doomsday Can Wait and Any Given Doomsday) is a gritty urban fantasy starring a kick butt heroine who finds her world turning uglier and darker as she has reached the point that she distrusts the two men in her life. Although at times the story line feels overwhelming to Liz and to the reader with so much going on, fans will enjoy her latest escapades as the heroine knows that even delaying doomsday does not prevent Apocalypse Happens.

Creative storylines, heroine at peace with her evil side enough to do her job, heartbreaking love triangle; its just good stuff. Make sure you have read the other books in the Phoenix series first. You will be glad you did.

I am enjoying this series so far. The American Indian aspect is a new spin for me, and the characters are interesting and fun to read about. Hopefully, the West and Indian lore will continue to make a strong appearance in the stories.

This is a great series and I cannot wait for book 4 to get here! I like the mix of paranormal with the view of the afterlife in the h's eyes. I like the twists and turns that have gotten us here so far and the good mix of steamy romance with a storyline. I highly recommend reading this series from the beginning.

Lori Handeland has a great track record with werewolves. Her "Moon" series held my interest and kept me coming back for more. I stumbled across this new series when looking to see if there were any new "Moon" books, and now I'm completely hooked. I bought the first two in the series but my local bookstore didn't have the third, so I came home and ordered it from Amazon immediately and then was anxiously waiting it's arrival. Waiting for the fourth book to be released will be very difficult.

This series is completely different from the "Moon"series but the characters are just as intriguing and the story plot will grab you immediately.

Looking forward to more with great anticipation!

I can't wait for the next book to come out! I love this whole series!!!!!! Don't hesitate, just buy it. Its a sexy book written by a fantastic writer. You'll be sucked in!!
