FIRST IN THE GUILD HUNTER SERIES from “a major new talent” (CHRISTINE FEEHAN).
View our feature on Nalini Singh’s Angels' Blood.
Nalini Singh introduces readers to a world of beauty and bloodlust, where angels hold sway over vampires.

Vampire hunter Elena Deveraux is hired by the dangerously beautiful Archangel Raphael. But this time, it’s not a wayward vamp she has to track. It’s an archangel gone bad.

The job will put Elena in the midst of a killing spree like no other—and pull her to the razor’s edge of passion. Even if the hunt doesn’t destroy her, succumbing to Raphael’s seductive touch just may. For when archangels play, mortals break.

Passing on this series, just not my thing

August 11, 2017

Format: Mass Market PaperbackVerified Purchase

SERIES: Guild Hunter #1
ROMANCE: Power Plays. Dominate Alpha.

QUICK REVIEW
I am a huge fan of Nalini Singh but I've long put off this series for a variety of reasons. After finally deciding to give it a shot, I have to say that it didn't work for me -- too dark, too many power plays between H and h, and just overall not my thing. The world building is phenomenal though in typical Singh fashion.

--------------------------------

CHARACTERS
Elena Deveraux: Working as a Guild Hunter gives Elena a purpose and a chance to use her Hunter Born skills. The same skills that made her an outcast in her family's eyes. Elena isn't afraid of much but when she's placed on a job for the Archangel Raphael, she truly learns what it means to fear.

Raphael: The Archangels are the most powerful beings on Earth and they rule their territories with a mixture of awe, fear, and respect. Raphael has lived for centuries and there isn't much that surprises or fascinates him anymore, so when Elena refuses to bend to his will, he's intrigued.

POSITIVES
-- I loved the concept of this story and the unique world that Nalini Singh has created. You have the archangels who rules over everyone and have the ability to create vampires who must then serve the angels for a 100 years. The humans are at the bottom of the power structure but can petition to be turned and you have the Guild Hunters who are in charge of keeping the vampires in line and returning them when they skip out on their contract. There were so many cool elements to this world and I would have loved to learn more about.

-- Elena is a strong, independent, and confident woman and I enjoyed her as the primary narrator. She doesn't take crap from anyone and she's incredibly loyal, devoted, and compassionate.

NEGATIVES
-- There was too much of a power disparity between Raphael and Elena and for most of the book Elena is afraid of Raphael and positive that he will maim, torture, or kill her once she's completed her mission. At one point she even goes into deep hiding to get away from him and arms herself to stay protected. I'm sorry, but fear isn't sexy to me.

-- Dimitri was just awful! I really didn't like this side character and he bothered me so much. There's no way I would have been able to read his book, Archangel's Blade, were I to continue with this series. I personally am not into the pain/pleasure scene but what really bothered me was his attitude toward Elena. He's constantly pushing his scent/pheromones at Elena (which creates an physical reaction in Elena) even when she repeatedly asks him to stop. Just NO! This is basically rape and not cool. Just because he's creating a pleasure physical experience for her, doesn't justify doing it against Elena's wishes.

Rich with many wonderful stories to come

June 17, 2016

Format: Mass Market PaperbackVerified Purchase

I adore this author's other big series, Psy-Changeling, so I was excited to start this series. I've read a few of the little novellas that start this series out and they've been pretty good. And while I did enjoy Angels' Blood, I'm thinking this isn't going to be an obsession the way Psy-Changeling was.

This world is really interesting. Vampires are created by angels that are very much a part of the everyday life. When an angel makes a vampire, the vamp agrees to 100 years of service in return. Some vamps change their mind about that service and take off. That's where the hunters come in.

Elena is a hunter born meaning she's able to track vampires better than your average hunter. She can scent them. Human and from a family that's not happy with her "choice" of employment, she's one badass hunter.

Raphael is not just an angel but an archangel. He's come into that power after hundreds of years of being an angel. His past experience with human women is not a happy one but he's very drawn to Elena despite needing her for a hunt that might get her killed.

This author is a master at creating dynamic worlds, rich with the promise of many wonderful stories to come. A paranormal world that lives very much in our own world with just a few additions to our history books, it creates a comfortable and satisfying place for the drama to unfold.

I enjoyed Elena and Raphael's story but what surprised me was that their story isn't over. This series doesn't have different couples for each book set in this exciting world. No, it looks like at least the first three are about this couple. Somehow that just made me sad. It was clear they still had story left. Their relationship isn't quite right at the end. These two have dominance issues. The badass in Elena gets in the way of the power that is an archangel. It's just not a stable ending for them. But I do like a couple to be settled at the end of a book.

I may read the next book but not right away. While I enjoyed this one, it just didn't compel me to rip open the next book. Maybe I'm just not a vampire girl. Maybe I'm just not an angel girl. Most likely, I'm just not in the mood to read on right now.

but I do not want to spend money on it myself and would like to know if a book has such content or ...

There is not even an attempt at keeping a plot going, as there is so much emphasis on sex that it disappears. The corruption of the Archangels is not only ignorant but ridiculous.Read more

Solid weekend read

I liked this one: great, consistent characterization and equal time given to the mystery and the romance. Good pacing, plenty of detail, just a nice solid read.

Too expensive!

Being a fan of the “Legion of Angels” series by Ella Summers and having never read Singh’s work, I went looking for the first book of the series to give it a shot.Read more
