The 3rd Prince another great read!, June 28, 2008
This review is from: Dragon Lords: The Dark Prince (Book 3) (Paperback)
Dragon Lords: The Dark Prince (Book 3)
The 3rd prince has found his great love but she cannot take being on this planet under his authority. She is used to being care free and in charge through the galaxies as a pirate. Many hot, sexy scenes that will keep you wanting more.
If you've read the first 2 books of the series, you know you can't wait to read this one! I give my hat off to Michelle for a series of excitement.

Liked, April 22, 2011
So far I've liked what I've read from both the Dragon and Var series, and this was no exception. Though I still enjoyed "Barbarian" a bit more, I did like the characters Olena and Yusef (of course), and wanted them to work things out. Like Pillow's other novels there is tension (and fighting, and yelling, some stabbing) which makes for an interesting, well drawn out story.
The only thing about all the novels taking place at the exact same time, and coming in contact with one another is that there is a lot of repetition between the books. Because I've been reading them within days of one another I ended up skipping a good portion because I had just read that exact same thing in the previous novel. Its a great thing if you read them out of order because it makes it easy to just jump in and read, but a not so great thing if you have been following in order.
Overall I really liked "The Dark Prince", and I plan to continue reading more from this author.

Another exciting read!!!, April 29, 2010
This review is from: Dragon Lords: The Dark Prince (Book 3) (Paperback)
The third book in The Dragon Lords series, Michelle M. Pillow brings us the story of Yusef and Olena. It is quite amazing to this reviewer that Ms Pillow can tell basically the same story from different characters point of views and keep each story fresh, exciting and thrilling.
Olena is a space pirate and good at her job. She gets on board the Galaxy Brides spaceship while running away from a bounty hunter. Thinking she can get herself married off to some barbarian on another planet, and make her escape, she joins the other girls in getting herself ready. Little does she know that fate has dealt her cards, and Olena is about to find herself in the arms of not only a handsome warrior who shows her passion beyond her imagination, but who is also a prince.
Yusef knew as soon as he saw her that the fiery redhead would be his. Olena was everything he had ever wanted in a woman. He knows that she will be hard to tame, but he has always liked playing with fire. The trouble with fire is that sometimes you get burned. Yusef is prepared to fight for her love and in doing so, he reveals the tenderness he holds inside his warriors heart.
This is an exciting story. Ms Pillow has written two very emotional, complicated and highly loveable characters. Olena has a lot of emotional baggage to sort out and Yusef is every bit of the dark prince the title suggests. One may think that to hear the same plot again and again would be boring, but Ms Pillow always gives us wonderful characters with new problems to sort out between them, and a slightly different angle on the plot. Each book deals with the complications that each prince has with his chosen wife. In the case of Yusef and Olena, the sexual tension is very high and the reader is at last satisfied when Yusef can finally consummate his marriage to Olena. Olena's realisation that she is finally in love with her husband is an emotional moment and this reviewer got major tingles. A well written book that flows along, this reviewer highly recommends and feels that so far, this is the best one. This reviewer is waiting with baited breath for the fourth book to be published.
