Hell Kat [Paperback]

Vivi Anna (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 1, 2006

Smart, sexy, and kick-ass brave, Kat has the fighting skills of a warrior and a sexual appetite few men can match - although most would happily die trying. But Kat has bigger problems than choosing her latest bedmate/plaything. She's caught in a post-apocalyptic world where only the rich live well - and Kat is determined to be one of them. To make her dream come true, the fearless treasure hunter has to get her hands on a lot of money, and that's going to take every bit of talent she's got, and then some. With her devoted partner and lover Darnian by her side, Kat sets out to make one big score. The stakes are high and they get even higher when she discovers her rival, Hades, is after the same thing. Big, mean, and sexy as hell, he's just the sort of man Kat loves to take to bed...and will...if he can help her in her quest. Now, two people whose fiery attraction grows more explosive by the hour are joining forces in a dangerous game, and a delicious discovery of the treasures that await them in the dark...

5.0 out of 5 stars superb post-doomsday science fiction thriller, March 30, 2006

This review is from: Hell Kat (Paperback)

Nuclear explosions have left much of the Earth devastated and civilization on the brink of extinction. In this post-apocalyptic realm, deadly scavengers seek fortunes anyway they can in hopes of a better life. One such lethal treasure seeker is Hell Kat who scrounges the ruins of great societies in order to find loot worth selling; accompanying her on her forays is her partner and sometimes lover Damien.

Hell Kat and Damien seek the Monmouth, a relic of the ancients worth a fortune. However to obtain the valuable technological device, they must enter Vanquished City, home to numerous mutants born in radiation. Joining them on their quest is her rival Hades, a man Kat secretly desires, and their guide Darquiel, who frightens Kat because her long time teammate Damien seems more loyal to him than her. The quest begins that only can be considered successful if they obtain the electronic gizmo, sell it, and use the money to escape the dangerous outer rim; the probability of success in each of the team member's minds: zero.

The cover looks more like comic book art, but for those who believe that makes HELL KAT targeting children means you have not read comic books in decades. The dark story line is action-packed with an incredible descriptive concrete and iron wasteland as seen through the eyes of the four travelers. Besides learning the depth of the nuclear holocaust, fans also understand the motives of each of the prime players yet that never slows down the pace; neither does the few sexual encounters that in fact enhance the comprehension of morality. Vivi Anna paints a nightmarish gory tale of a future hell on earth. Those with strong stomachs will fully cherish and demand more such post-doomsday science fiction thrillers.

5.0 out of 5 stars OMG!!!, May 7, 2006

Shaly R. "serenity_123" (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hell Kat (Paperback)

Hell Kat was the first book I read by Vivi Anna and I must say that I was hooked!!! I love to read erotica and this book was all that and more. The plot and characters was a great change from the usual kissy romance stuff. I would def. recommend this book to all who like action, class and a naughty stuff along the way. It wasn't your typical romance book and that's what I loved about it, I didn't know what to expect. Go Vivi Anna!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars How spicy do you like it?, January 8, 2011

This review is from: Hell Kat (Paperback)

This book is ok -- not bad, not great. Vivi Anna has done a great job of creating the Hell Kat character -- a motorcycle riding treasure hunter who likes sex. What I particularly liked was that Kat's character evolved through the course of the book, mostly described through her relationships with Damien, her former slave, Hades, a peer, and Baruch, the evil dark lord. I'm not much into vampires, but that didn't stop me from enjoying the story. This book is not literature, but it is a fun and sexy read.
