This review is from: Divine Night (Mass Market Paperback)

He penned adventures that have thrilled the hearts of readers and movie goers for centuries. Yet, perhaps Alexander Dumas' life was one that would rival even a Musketeer's for adventure and excitement. What if he were still alive? That is something Harmony is about to learn after she meets Alex, the immortal man who has continued his career, spinning fictions out of his own life. However, he is a lonely man, especially since losing his one, true love. Now, Harmony offers him the hope that true love can happen more than once, but first, he must deal with another immortal, one he thought he had destroyed decades ago. St. Germaine is supposed to be dead, but he's back, and Alex must stop his evil, or no one will have a happily ever after.

*** Building on the complex, innovative plot begun two books ago, Ms. Jackson continues her version of a saga of immortals battling against evil. If you are unfamiliar with the prior works, it is highly likely that you'll feel a bit asea. Once more, the author's creativity is demonstrated, proving why she is a star among paranormal romance writers. ***

5.0 out of 5 stars dark action-packed complicated fantasy, November 30, 2007

This review is from: Divine Night (Mass Market Paperback)

Renowned mid nineteenth century action adventure author Alexander Dumas continues to write swashbuckling fictions long after he should have died. However, Alex is an immortal so much of his novels come from his own life.

His latest tale that he struggles to write is based on the most difficult event he ever faced. The tragedy occurred six decades when Alex was approaching a century and a half of living. His immortal enemy Comte St. Germain ripped out the heart of the woman he loved. Always wanting vengeance, he never had an opportunity until now as St. Germain has reappeared. Alex teams up with psychic Harmony in attempt to end St. Germain's immortal reign of terror.

The third superb Melanie Jackson gloomy Divine thriller (see DIVINE FIRE and DIVINE MADNESS) is an exhilarating tale from the moment the audience meets a still grieving Alex and never slows down as a High noon showdown is imminent. Although this tale can stand alone, reading the other two sagas will help the audience understand the complex world of the divine immortals especially since some interloping sidebars occur. Fans who appreciate a dark action-packed complicated fantasy will want to read DIVINE NIGHT and its predecessors.

This review is from: Divine Night (Mass Market Paperback)

Jackson always gives you a different read and this one is so intriguing. Alexander Dumas's life is slightly more interesting that his one-for-all-characters that he creates. With a touch of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Dumas is a bit long-lived! He has spent centuries spinning wonderful tales, loosely based on his own life. Only true love has proved illusive over the years; not since his lady love was killed has he opened his heart. Now Harmony has entered his life and he wants to love again, only his mortal, or as they case may be immortal enemy is back, too. A quirky, complex, original tale, that is so typically like Jackson.
