CHARMED FOR LIFE?Thanos Agapiou has always been a charmer. For over two millennia, the vampire had no problem acquiring whom and what he wanted with a flash of his handsome smile. He took for granted the boyish good looks he presumed he’d possess for the rest of eternity. How very wrong he was. A nearly fatal attack distorted his entire existence. With his appearance now matching the title many … appearance now matching the title many have bestowed their kind—monster—he hides away from the world and all of those who know him, including his Ancient, Eton.
Until one night when a stranger draws him out from the shadows.
OR CURSED FOR ETERNITY?
Ever since Paris Antoniou was thrust into a world of vampires, his reality has become stranger than the history and the myths he’s studied for the past decade.
When he learns the truth about his origins and the power he wields, his confusion and fear have him running for his life. What he doesn’t expect is to run into the arms of Thanos—a vampire who doesn’t intimidate him as much as he intrigues him.
WHAT HAS THE POWER TO MAKE YOU WANT TO SURVIVE?
As their worlds collide under extraordinary circumstances, an attraction neither can deny takes hold. But will that be enough to save Thanos from his demons, or will he condemn Paris to his fate?
Destinies have been changed. Lines have been crossed. And, with tales of the vampire race coming to an end, who will make the ultimate sacrifice?
After all, in a world run by vampires and gods, only one can be the true Master among the Monsters.

Ella Frank has done it again. But I’m not surprised since I have devoured every book she has written. Thanos is the final book in the Masters Among Monster series. You have to read them in order for the world she has lovingly created to build in your mind. Alasdair is first, then Isadora and now we are rewarded with the finale-THANOS.
I won’t recap the book, since it is well done above. I will however, ask if you like witty dialogue? Do you like Vampires? Ancient Greece? Greek Gods and their penchant for meddling? Hot STEAMY sex? MM, MF, MFM, MMM? Then this is the book series for you!
I was so drawn into the world that Ella Frank created, I miss it already. Total book hangover. The ending is one I did NOT see coming but she has managed to tie everything together so nice and tidy. I just wish there would be a follow up book recapping where they all are about five years from the end!
Thank you Ella Frank for another enjoyable series in a world of Gods….Thanos (Masters Among Monsters Book 3)
Thanos is the third novel in the Monsters Among Masters series. You must read the first two books to fully understand the book. It is the conclusion to an awesome series about vampires, Gods, and Demigods. I am not usually a paranormal reader but I am an Ella fan so I gave it a chance and she hooked me into their world. Plus, it’s M/M M/M/M, and M/F! This story is more about Thanos but it covers all of the characters’ relationships from the previous books.
Thanos is forever changed. He was once a charmer with a wicked sexy grin that could bring anyone to their knees. After being attacked his once gorgeous face is now disfigured beyond repair. He didn’t want to leave the confides of his chambers to see anyone even his Eton. His Ancient. The one he is bonded to until death. He doesn’t think he is worth it. Not anymore. The only one he seems to want to communicate with is a complete stranger named Paris. He doesn’t even know where the man came from but he feels some kind of connection to him. Thanos isn’t comfortable enough to show him who he really is but Paris is determined to know Thanos. He is surprisingly intrigued by this man hiding behind a mask.
Paris was thrown into a world that he didn’t understand. Why was he here? Why was he so attracted to a man that could kill him in an instant? He needs answers. And when he meets with the others, he is met with confusion, anger, and compassion. The vampires, their first sired, and their new yielding are determined to put all of the pieces together. For all of their sakes, throughout the process Paris will learn more about Thanos and his demons. Will he still feel the attraction and connection to him after he finds out about his past? And what about Eton? How will he handle a new man coming into his first sired’s life?
I can’t really explain what the hell is going on in this world of Vampires, Gods, and Demigods. It’s clearly understood while reading it but to explain. You have to read it! I was hooked in from the very beginning until the very end. I have also been binge watching The Vampire Diaries and was up until 3:30am last night watching it. I am actually surprised I didn’t have dreams of vampires. Anyway, it’s a complex world involving complicated characters that don’t even know if they can feel. They want to believe they feel love. They know they feel attraction but love?
I love this series because I feel like I am transported into another world. A dangerous one. One full of mind-reading vampires. And damn if they aren’t sexy! They are demanding but do show other sides of themselves. Thanos might not feel worthy but he is wanted and needed. Will Paris be the one to show him that he is worthy even without his beautiful face?
Overall…it’s so addicting!! It has twists. It has beauty. It has intrigued. And it has evil. It wasn’t what I expected but it was just as amazing.
