    I absolutely adore Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunters series. It's got romance, war, an amazing blend of mythology and her own made up mythologies as well, lots of interesting characters, and she just creates a world all her own.

    That sounds awesome! How pages is one of her books and how's the writing? Just want to make sure that we can manage reading it within a month. :)

    They're normal sized mass market paperbacks for the most part. She has 2 or 3 that are larger later in the series as she had a LOT of info people wanted one some key characters, but for the most part they're "normal" sized books. 200-300 pages in the mass market paperback size. Her writing is definitely fun, quicky, and fast paced. I read her books in one sitting because I'm crazy about her and want to soak it all in at once, but most people I know take a few days :)

    Cool! I love reading, but I'm a fairly ok-paced reader so for me it will take a few sitting (I'm Swedish, so English is my secondary language :P). Which book/serie would you suggest we digest into? Have you read all her books?

    I have read all of them :) I'd suggest starting with the Dark Hunter ones. The first one in that series is Fantasy Lover. After that it goes-

    1- Fantasy Lover
    2- The Beginning (in Sins of the Night)
    3- Dragonswan
    4- Night Pleasures
    5- Night Embrace
    6- Phantom Lover (in Midnight Pleasures)
    7- Dance with the Devil
    8- A Dark Hunter Christmas (in Dance with the Devil)
    9- Kiss of the Night
    10- Night Play
    11- Winter Born (in Stroke of Midnight)
    12- Seize the Night
    13- Sins of the Night
    14- Second Chances (in Dark Hunter Companion)
    15- Unleash the Night
    16- Dark Side of the Moon
    17- A Hard Days Night Searcher (in My Big Fat Supernatural Wedding)
    18- Until Death Do Us Part (in Love at First Bite)
    19- Fear the Darkness- Online Novella
    20- The Dream Hunter
    21- Devil May Cry
    22- Upon a Midnight Clear
    23- Dream Chaser
    24 Shadow of the Moon (Dead after Dark)
    25- Acheron
    26- One Silent Night
    27- Dream Warrior
    28 Bad Moon Rising
    29 No Mercy
    30 Retribution
    31 The Guardian
    32 Time Untime
    33 Styxx
    34 Dark Bites
    35 Son of No One

    It's a very long series but amazing to get into. She releases a new one every August, Son of No One just came out Aug 4th, so we've got a year to re-read and catch up... the next story arc goes into the dragons :) Amazon usually has ebook sales on groups of these as well, to make things cheaper for everyone.
