Great Series

: The Immortals: The Gathering is the final book of the series and brings the last missing Immortal into the story. Hunter, son of the goddess Kali, feels the calling and suddenly finds himself staring into the face of a lion. Leda is running the island sanctuary for exotic animals and is stunned to find a gorgeous man in the cage with her lion Mukasa. Neither Hunter nor Leda is aware of the reasons behind the calling and can't resist the sizzling passion between them. With the help of a half demon friend, Samantha, and Leda's connection to the Coven of Light witches, they soon find out how desperate the worlds situation is becoming. Hunter and Leda's fiery relationship will lead them to more dangerous perils as they set out to join Hunter's Immortal brothers. It's non-stop action as all the warriors, their magical women and many of their friends they've picked up along the way, come together for the ultimate battle over the death magic and the demon bent on destroying all life magic. There are sacrifices to be made and possibly loves that may be lost along the way and the explosive climactic ending will blow you away. Who will win this battle? Who will survive? Jennifer Ashley has done a fantastic job bringing all our characters from the series together and giving us a conclusion of epic proportions. It's a combustible read that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat and breathless in anticipation as the scenes intensify. She weaves Hunter and Leda's romance smoothly into an already building plot and gives the reader an unforgettable ride. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this series and hope that you do too. Totally awesome!!

Terrific, like the 1st & 3rd books in the series. Jen Ashley brings all 5 brothers together for "T

The Immortals Series: The Calling (Jennifer Ashley) The Darkening (Robin T. Popp) The Awakening (Joy Nash) The Gathering (Jennifer Ashley) The Redeeming (Jennifer Ashley) Due for release in Sept. 2008 The Crossing (Joy Nash) Due for release in Sept/ Oct 2008 This series needs to be read in order. Start from the beginning to follow the unfolding story. This book, The Gathering, in particular needs to be read after the first three. It's a terrific continuation of the series. Hunter is known for being "the crazy one" among the 5 Immortals. He loves to live for the moment, future be damned. When he awakens in a cage next to a lion, with no clue as to how he got there, he is delighted to be found by a lovely female animal rescuer. Having a gift for communicating with beasts of all kinds, Hunter appreciates Leda's choice of lifestyle. He also appreciates the fact that she is single, pretty, and attracted to him. Leda believes she has found a crazy man in the lion cage. Not only is he unafraid of the great cat, but he is having a conversation with it as well. Death magic is taking over the world day by day. The demon leader, Kehksut, seems unstoppable. When Hunter learns of the risk to life magic creatures, he finds and joins his Immortal brothers in an effort to stop Kehksut. Being a witch of life magic, Leda is determined to help. Together, Hunter and Leda travel to Seattle to join the battle. Adrian has finally located all of his brothers. Darius, Kalen, and Hunter have come to gather their vast powers against Kehksut. Some feel that their youngest brother, Tain, cannot be saved. Each of his brothers has tried on their own to save him. Tain is determined to help Kehksut end all life magic. Adrian will not give up hope. He believes that Tain's mind can be healed if they kill Kehksut. Using every bit of their joined power, and that of the witches they love, the 4 older brothers risk everything in one final effort to save Tain. When chaos breaks out, Hunter must make a choice between taking Leda away to safety or doing his part to save Tain. Jennifer Ashley has a talent for writing intense tales mixed with plenty of good humor. "The Gathering" was fast paced and exciting. All of the significant characters from books 1- 3 return to join Adrian's army of life magic. Keeping the main focus on Hunter and Leda, Ashley took the best of each earlier book and built a great 4th story. She is writing the 5th edition as well. I'm looking forward to reading Tain's book. If you'd like to read the whole series, here are the links to the rest of the books: The Calling (Immortals, Book 1) The Darkening (Immortals, Book 2) The Awakening (Immortals, Book 3) Books 4 and 5 are scheduled for release in fall 2008.

VERY suspenseful!! WOW!!

This is a great addition to the Immortals Series!! I was very glad to see the ending and what the author had to say about future stories!! Can't say more.... don't want to ruin it for anyone!!

The Gathering (Immortals, Book 4)

A 5 book series by multiple authors, the pace, approach and treatment so far by each author was amazingly consistent. This type of series is sometimes uneven - but this was right on. Keepers! The Calling (Immortals, Book 1) The Darkening (Immortals, Book 2) The Awakening (Immortals, Book 3) Looking forward to #5...

Fun Series....4th Book Ties Series Up Nicely!

This is a fast and fun series to read! I disagree with "Auntie" Helen's review completely...I think the characters definitely had depth, and more than that, they had good charisma. I think Ms. Ashley did a great job wrapping up The Immortals series with "The Gathering".
