I enjoyed the start of the Immortals Subsequently Night series, but this all the same can't dethrone "Demon from the Dark" in my affections. Between this and the prequel novella, all I can retrieve is that Valkyries are funny, and consummate bitches. Oddly enough, one quality does not negate the other. On to book three!

A Hunger Similar No Other
4 StarsSynopsis
Emmaline Troy is a halfling - half Vampire and half Valkyrie. She is as well the predestined mate of Lachlain MacRieve, the leader of the Lykae clan who has zip but hatred in his heart for the Vampire Horde. But Lachlain has waited millennia for his mate and nothing will stop him from challenge her - not fifty-fifty the ancient evil from her past which threatens to destroy them both.Review
*Note: this is actually book #two in the Immortals Afterwards Night series and is preceded past The Warlord Wants Forever. While it is not necessary to read the novella in gild to grasp the basic premise of the story, in that location are events that could be better understood by reading information technology.Cole'southward world edifice is intriguing but needs more background information on the diverse Lore species, particularly the three that feature prominently in the book - the Vampires, Valkyries and Lykae. The plot is typical of the blighted mates trope and the vampire threat could have been better adult. The dialogue is hilarious and the writing mainly flows smoothly simply some of the transitions between scenes are sudden and disjointed.
Loved the steamy and intense chemical science betwixt Lachlain and Emma. Yous tin can't go wrong with a sexy, hot highlander who is as well a werewolf (although it is a fiddling disappointing that he doesn't actually shift into a wolf). While he is deadline psychotic at the beginning of the volume, this is understandable considering everything he has gone through and, in fact, his ingrained sense of honor does reassert itself quite quickly. Some readers may be offended by his beliefs toward Emma only it should be taken within the context of his label and the world Cole has built, i.eastward. the ongoing war and conflict betwixt the different Lore species.
Emma is a likeable heroine and her transition from shy and timid lass to self-confident and boot-ass vampire slayer is a highlight of the story.
The secondary characters are too well-developed and intriguing, especially Emma's aunt Nix (all of her aunts are hysterically funny) and Lachlain'southward all-time friend, Bowen who looks like he volition slot into my favorite tortured hero category.
Overall, a promising beginning to a compelling series and I await forward to reading more than.

If you are new to this serial I would highly recommend that you read the novella The Warlord Wants Forever before reading A Hunger Like No Other. Information technology will help introduce you into the globe and to Valkyrie convent that the heroine grew up in. Also the couple that is in the novella shows up in Hunger and I was glad that I knew their back story.
I've had this series on my TBR list for over a twelvemonth and finally decided to start it and I'thousand so glad I did. Kresley Cole has been added to my list of favorite authors. She does an splendid task of mixing romance and humor. I find myself laughing a lot at the chicks in the Valkyrie convent. I can't wait to read more about them in the next books.
I love how Hunger tied in with the novella and I can run into how the secondary characters are going to have their lives intertwined with each other. The time line for Hunger and Warlord was parallel to each other. It was fun to see what was happening to Emma and the other Valkyrie gals while Myst was off having her adventure with Wroth in Warlord. And it was prissy to see Myst and Wroth again towards the end of Hunger. Nosotros go to see a little more into their HEA.
Wow. This is sounding like a review for 2 books. LOL Ok plenty about the novella, let'due south dig into Hunger.
Lachlain is a sexy lycan that has been tortured by vampires for 150 years. Which means he pretty much hates them as race. Afterward he smells the presence of his mate nearby, he escapes the dungeon he is chained up in to discover her.
That'due south where Emmaline (Emma) comes into the moving picture. She is Lachlian's mate only when the two finally meet he can't believe that fate would paw him a vampire mate. He is downright mean to her in the beginning. Emma is terrified of this dark and sexy lycan.
I've seen in other readers had a little hard time with liking Lachlain in the beginning because of the he forces sexual acts onto Emma. I didn't have this issue. It was a build upwardly and with his hatred to vampires considering of his past I could encounter where he would utilize those scenes as a fashion to get dorsum at them through Emma. He started out thinking she was an evil leech. But over the course of their time together he learns he was wrong about Emma in and then many means.
With then much against them and the back and forth between the two non trusting ane another; their dear for each other brings them together.
I've actually enjoyed this serial and so far and I'thou adding Kresley Cole to my list of favorite authors. I tin can't wait to offset the side by side volume, No Rest for the Wicked.
Narration side note: I must say that I've non really enjoyed male narrators in the past but Robert Petkoff does a great chore with the voices and I dear the sexy Scottish brogue that he gives to Lachlain's character.

I loved this first full length novel of the Immortals After Nighttime serial. A Hunger Like No Other is a unique paranormal romance. I'm not sure what sub-genres I would tag this one with. Urban Fantasy? Vampire Romance? Paranormal Romance? All of the above?Emma is mix of Valkyrie and Vampire. She has been sheltered all her life. She doesn't know who her parents are. And then, she travels to Paris to get more information about them. But, once there, she finds she is the captive of a Lykae.Lachlain has been help captive for over a century by the nearly evil Vampire alive. When he catches a olfactory property of his mate, his breaks costless. When he finally locates her, his stunned to notice the mate he has waited thousands of years for is a Vampire.I highly recommend this ane. I hope the residue of the series stays on runway with this one.

I loved this book.I loved the chief characters of Emma and Lachlain. I liked their interaction with each other as well as with the other characters. And I felt like at the climax of the novel they stayed true to their characters.I too liked the other characters that are no doubt going to appear subsequently in the serial popping up in what felt like natural circumstances. I hate when characters make an appearance merely because they tin. But in this novel it felt appropriate. But my adoration of this novel might have been a lilliputian biased since I adore novels with Scottish leading men.

I was looking for a new series later on Lara Adrian'due south Midnight Breed and I practice believe I take plant it. Now this serial is definitely not like whatsoever other I accept read and the writer is a bit dissimilar with his writing, but male child of male child can they tell a story. A Hunger Like No Other is the first book in the The Immortals After Nighttime series. The book is an enjoyable read with the romantic tension between Lachlain and Emma effectively holding the readers attending. There are several relationship issues that they have to piece of work out; his hatred of vampires (when she is one) and her non wanting to take anything to do with him because he's a werewolf. HILARIOUS mating, these ii. Emma developments from being afraid of her own shadow to someone who is cocky-confident and a ability to be reckoned with. This series is definitely an original and non like any you have read before. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a piffling romance and some nice sexy scenes. :)
