Another great PN Elrod and Nigel Bennett Book

The third book in the series doesn't disappoint. Like the first two books it starts off strong and gives and ending that makes you hope for another book in the series.

A Good Adventure

The final book of Lord Richard Oreleans. You learn more about his relationship with his brothers, and how Richard actually became champion for the family instead of the middle brother. He became a priest. Richard faces many trials to regain his mortality and Cheron is back and not making things easy for our hero. The story goes all over the world and people finally learn what Richard is. They accept him, and help him on his quest. One of the women he (Richard) loves is taken from him in a surprising manner. Various Gods make an appearance, and the return of Sharron compleates it all. Over all I enjoyed the book and couldn't stop reading it. I think it'll join my long list of favroites.

Breath-taking!

This book, the third in a trilogy by authors Nigel Bennett and P. N. Elrod, finishes the series beautifully. The authors weave elements of fantasy, adventure, and romance into a spine-tingling novel that captures the reader. The use of myth and symbolism is an added feature that brings depth to the characters. For anyone interested in vampire lore or just a good read, this book is a must.

Great read!

What a great book, which teaches a lot about vampire and human nature. Excellent characters and suspense. Highly recommended!

Nail biting, can't put this one down, page turner!

It is hard to get a five star rating from me - this one truly deserves it. Actor Nigel Bennett ('LaCroix' from FOREVER KNIGHT) and award-winning writer P.N. Elrod ("The Vampire Diaries") team up again as they continue the adventures of vampire hero Richard Dun, once known as Lancelot. His old enemy Charon is back, and this time threatening not only Richard, but Richard's friends and even daring to take on gods. As Charon's diabolical laughter echoes throughout the book, Richard finds himself not only trying to protecting his pals, but teaming up with them in a battle that takes them from this world to the Otherside. There's plenty of swordplay (of both kinds) and nail biting suspense. The location descriptions are so real the imagines formed in my mind as if I was there. From taxi drivers to government officials to teenage boys to vampires to gods, the characters come alive with realistic personalities. Sharon Geary is also back, and on quite the adventure of her own. Readers also learn more about Richard's mortal past in exciting yet touching flashbacks. I would be amiss to not mention the beautiful cover by artist Jamie Murray. Fans are likely to find themselves staring at it in wonder.
