Summary: Wonderful paranormal series
Review: When I first started to read this book, I was confused. I didn't any on the Dark series before this. At first, I thought the worst of Lucian but then it slowly made sense. I think Christine Feehan did any exelent job of discribing a world that is imaginary and discribing the origin of vampires. As I read the book, I was caught up in a world that vampires and ghouls do run around and we need a race like the Carpathians to keep us safe. I think the scenes are described very well and if someone is looking to read a book about the paranormal with romance, the Dark series is an excelent series to read. I can't wait to read the other books!

Summary: The Dark Guardian
Review: The Dark Guardian was well worth the wait,it answered some questions on why the brothers didn,t turn evil like the others of their era. Reading though has put more questions and hopefully answers in following books. Do they find a formula that will save the young carpathians, will there be a story where the twins meet up a do battle with their younger siblings. I'm totally hooked on the series and have gotton my son's girlfriend hooked when I knew Gabriel's story was coming out I reread the intire series and was finish just in time to read about Gabriel and waited some what patiently for Luscian's. To the author Ms Feehan Bravo!!! and I hope you don't get tired of these fasinating people so we may enjoy more stories of them. Thank you.

Summary: Dark Series Just Gets Better
Review: It amazes me how Christine Feehan has created a race of people called the Carpathians, developed several books about the different characters in this race, and still manages for each book to be refreshing, sexy, and suspenseful. Where does this woman get her inspiration for her leading men? Dark Guardian is Lucian's story. He is the most powerful, elite warrior of the Carpathians. In fact he is the guardian of his race. Now he has met the woman who can change his existence. She can give him back his emotions, sense of color, and ability to love. She is Jaxon Montgomery, a police officer who has spent her life trying to survive the destruction of her childhood, the death of not only her family, but her adopted family, on the constant lookout for the man who will kill anyone who gets too close to her-her stepfather. Lucian, in order to protect Jaxon, makes her into a Carpathian. He takes away her ability to be in the sun, take nourishment from foods. She must now exist on blood like him, but in return gains powers she never knew existed. Together they learn to coexist while taking care of the bad guys. This is a pretty neat story and like all of Feehan's books, almost impossible to review because you just have to read them to get all the details. Ms. Feehan writes one of the most complex series in paranormal romance. If you haven't tried one of her books, grab one and I really feel you'll be searching for all of them. Ms. Feehan has it all in her books--paranormal, excitement, sex, suspense, gorgeous leading men-everything.

Summary: I could not put this one down.....
Review: All I can say is I hope Ms. Freehan keeps writing I am waiting for the next installment to this series. If you have not read them try it! I did and now I am hook. Even if you have not tried vampire romances try this series you will not regret it! In this book two strong characters come together. Lucian who has been hunting for his people for centuries and of course Jaxxon who is use to being on her own and getting her way. (not taking orders from anyone) It was great to see the chemistry between the two. Although you do have to feel for Lucian as he struggles on how to deal w/ Jaxxon. It was a great story my only complaint would be that it ended to soon. This book will leave you wanting more.

Summary: Dark Guardian
Review: Christine Feehan is one of the better authors that I have read. I have the complete DARK series and they all have a flare to them. There is always suspense as well as the expected romance. Experience the feel of two people in love, while One is Dark the other is mortal. Immerse yourself into a book that will keep you on your toes. I couldn't put it down. Enjoy a great romance.

Summary: An improvement over the last in the series....
Review: Dark Guardian is an improvement over its predecessor in the series. Feehan was able to add some variety in characterization, but the premise is getting old. Maybe it's time for a super FEMALE Carpathian?

Summary: EXCELLENT
Review: I HAVE READ EVERY ONE OF CHRISTINE FEEHAN BOOKS AND I MUST SAY THAT THIS WAS MY FAVORITE. I LOVED IT BECAUSE HE TREATS HER LIKE A EQUAL. HE EVEN LETS HER HELPS WITH VAMPIRE HUNTING. AND I MUST SAY OUT OF ALL THE CARPATHIAN MALES LUCIAN WAS THE MOST ROMANTIC.

Summary: Dark series n.8
Review: Dark Guardian presents Lucien who for the last several hundred years has pretended to be a vampire in order to safeguard his brother, Gabriel. Lucien at Francesca's (Gabriel's lafemate) word, searches out Jaxon Montgomery, a cop who is haunted by an abusive step father. He had killed her family and foster family, and anyone else who he percieved as being a threat to his relationship with Jaxon (this being anyone she grows close to.) Jaxon is afraid for Lucien despite his tremendous abilities, fearing he will be overconfident that no human could be a threat to him. Lucien is determined to help Jaxon move beyond her past once he finds her. If you are new to Christine Feehan, I recommend you start with Dark Prince because these novels have an overarching storyline that holds them all together, and characters from earlier novels tend to pop up.

Summary: fantasy, adventure and romance at it's best
Review: I have to admit I am new to the dark series but that takes away from none of the fun. if your new as well this book is a great place to start since it doesn't have that many references to the other books.
Lucian is one of the most powerful carpathian's in the world. So powereful that he sacrifced himself and pretended to be a vampire so that his twin brother wouldn't turn into a vampire (Dark Legend). Carpathian's are a race that drink blood but don't kill. There good but if they don't find there lifemate they either turn into a vampire or decide to go into the light. They need a lifemate because they shed light into there souls. Lucian finds his lifemate in Jaxon a strong ladycop who can take care of herself. He recuses her from a fire and takes her back to his mansion to protect her. When Jaxon wakes she tries to get Lucian to let her go. Throughout her life everyone she has come to care about has been killed by her stepfather and she knows that it's not possible for her to have a normal relationship in her life. ... There's plenty of danger and suspense as well. For anyone into the supernatural or the romantic the book. The whole series (which I am starting to read) is a great read!

Summary: Pretty good.
Review: I am a big fan of Christine Feehan, and I love her "Dark" series. Overall, I really enjoyed her newest installment in Dark Guardian. But there were a few quibbles that I had with the book that prevented me from giving it a higher rating. Mostly they centered around Jaxx, the heroine. When we first meet her and read about her life in the first chapter, I was looking for a completely different human heroine than what we have seen in the other Dark books. Since she was a policewoman, trained by the Navy Seals as a child, I thought she would be more centered and mature as a character. While there were some instances she displayed this throughout the book, overall I felt she was not as "fleshed" out as she could have been, especially considering her profession. At times I felt she was not deserving for the hero. However, Lucian was great. Perhaps it is because he is a true ancient, but he was very mellow and understanding, and allowed Jaxx more freedom than some other Carpathians we have read about. And I really was moved by the part were he tells Jaxx about the "man" who told him about Gabriel's lifemate. The end was also moving, in which we see a reunion of sorts with most of the Carpathians. As said before, overall I enjoyed this book, although not as much as Dark Legend, which was the story of Gabriel, Lucian's twin brother. But it kept me entertained and I look forward to the next one.
