Dark Slayer

The Dark, Book 20

By: Christine Feehan

Narrated by: Jim Frangione, Ryan West

After a century of longing, the instinct for survival unites a betrayed woman and a cursed man in this seductive Carpathian novel by #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan.

Ivory Malinov’s only brethren are the wolves. Abandoned by her family, and cast out by everyone she held dear, Ivory has lived centuries without love. She has sustained her sanity by preparing for one purpose—to destroy her greatest enemy. Then she picks up the scent of a man. Her salvation. Her lifemate. The curse of all Carpathian women.

Branded a criminal, Razvan is a dragonseeker borne of a great Carpathian lineage, only to be raised as its most despised captive enemy. Escaping from imprisonment, Razvan now seeks the dawn to end his terrible existence. Instead he has found his deliverance in Ivory, the Dark Slayer. In spirit, in flesh and blood, in love, and in war, Ivory and Razvan are made for each other. For as long as they dare to live.

One of the best in the series

A female Carpathian (Ivory) was betrayed by the oldest Prince of the Carpathian race (Dravyn) and Xavier, a Mage who was teaching her how to use magic to expand her natural powers over nature. She was attacked and nearly killed by vampires during a violent sexual assault by the Prince. He could not accept that a female victim was able to fight back against him and win so he asked the mage to take her from classes for him. In return Prince Dravyn had to kill the mate of the female “Dragonseeker”, Rhiannon, and kidnap her for the mage. These two events started the long term war between the Carpathians and the Mages which has continued for hundreds of years. This book is Ivory and Razvan’s (Rhiannon and Xavier’s grandson) story.
