This one's fairly pivotal with a few surprises thrown in.

Stryker is not all evil, he had been wounded so deeply that his heart just went black. There was a great love once, his father and his youth tore her away and scarred him for thousands of years. When War is released to kill Nick and Ash things go wrong and Stryker must deal with his past and work with his enemies.
This was a short read filled with some background on Stryker which was very interesting. We see how he was formed into his big bad self was not as heartbreaking as some of the other characters but it was understandable. It was just a brief look at him, maybe to brief and his recovered love was too easy. I just didn't connect with this story much it lacked the intensity and the details of previous stories.

One Silent Night, book 28 of the Dark-Hunters/Were-Hunters/Dream Hunters series, by Sherrilyn Kenyon (McQueen) @mysherrilyn. This is a reread of this series for me. Long overdue, at that! 😂 I am reading this series in the order from Sherrilyn’s website.
Stryker & Zephyra were married as teens. Zephyra has not forgiven him in 11,000 years. Stryker has always loved her. They work together to save their daughter (whom Stryker didn't know he had) & Zephyra realizes she still loves him. While doing so, they admit to the other they still love the other. If you like MF, Greek mythology, Atlantis mythology, & PNR, then you will love this book!

Stryker... I didn't expect that I would like him. Ever. The author really has that gift to tell everyone's story. And those stories never leave you indifferent.

was okay, the story was sort of weird to me because i'm used to the stories being about the heroes. but apart from that, the story was pretty neat :)

Right so I liked this because I love this world, but please, PLEASE do not try to sell Styker to me as a sympathetic character.
I have always thought that the Daimons have a crap deal and their fight is justified to a certain extent but he killed his own son?! Like?! I’m sorry no.
This felt a little too exposition-y to me, like filling in gaps before the next proper instalment?
Everything was going to feel like a flop after Acheron’s gift of a book!
I still cried my eyes out in the graveyard scene - Nick owns my heart and always will.
