Great series. A must read.
Just finished this book. Can’t wait for more adventures to come.. please try this series it’s great!
I love all of the books in this series!
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Sting #2 – Babyslay vs. psycho spawns. I missed the first book, how sad! Not reading book one did not take anything away from book two. She’s an abrasive, smart mouth with an over-sex-drive, which is OK, because she can kick butt. I love the way Rohan trains her as she’s fighting for her life. Ms. Wilde is a wonderful author: her colorful descriptions; the humor; a reasonable amount of vulgar language. It’s true that not all real people use vl, much less curse. The action, fast pace, humorous plot along with the good descriptions holds the reader in a tight grip. After the first sex scene, the story kicked into overdrive. There’s sex, but don’t let that stop you from reading this entertaining book. All sex scenes boremeoutofmyeverlovingmind, I’m not a prude. Paperback. 5*
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Need #3- More Babyslay. More of the well written series, with the humor, the colorful descriptions and twisting plot that makes Need almost as interesting as Sting. The action and romances continue and it’s hard to put the book down. The vulgar language is kept to a reasonable level and the sex scenes still boremetodeath (not just this author’s, all authors). I contacted the author to review this book after reading Sting. 5*
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Crave #4 – Another well written, action-packed, fast-paced, intrigue filled book. This must the best so far with the well thought out plot of nonstop twists and turns and surprises that keeps the reader glued to the pages. The characters show growth and even the minor characters have enough to them to keep the reader interested. The vulgar language is actually toned down quite a bit and there’s plenty of graphic sex – skip them if GS is not your cuppa, I find all GS boring. While not a cliffhanger, there’s more coming. Ms. Wilde does an excellent job with her descriptions. 4*
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Fall #5 – I did have a problem with the chapters about the Pride parade. I’m not sure if I was getting a lecture or Pride forced down my throat, but I got bored quick with much of the information that didn’t matter; clothing, repetition, etc. (You don’t know me so don’t think I dislike gays; boring is boring regardless of subject matter.) I love this series but this book didn’t have the magic like the previous books did. Maybe it was too much unimportant information (or filler is the impression I sometimes received) and not the usual fast paced intrigue that this series has in bunches. The book is still good but I had to work at reading it over several days; either too wordy or sometimes I was just confused. I usually finish one of Ms. Wilde’s book in one day; you can’t put them down, they’re so entertaining and addicting. Still, I’m looking forward to the next book. 4*
To all authors: I find pages of “praise” in any book annoying when I’d rather see the list of books by an author and then the story. I don’t give a rat’s toenail about other people’s opinions and I dislike hunting for information and the start of the story; plus everyone has a smartphone that they can look up reviews. In the days of paperbacks, I wouldn’t buy a book because of the pages of reviews unless it was one of my authors and then I didn’t open the book till I got home.
Note: This series needs to be read in order.
I’ve been enjoy the Nave Katz series. I’ve found the novels to be action-packed and entreating. The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Crave uncovers some interesting things and digs into a mystery, but it also was lacking in character development and those action-packed scenes.
I had a difficult time getting into The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Crave. Their where things I liked, but there where more things that just bothered me this go around.
Things I Liked:
• I like the covers for this series and the titles for the books. They fit each novel perfectly.
• I enjoyed the mystery of this new drug thats hit the streets. It’s not a normal drug and it affects people differently.
• Things are revealed in many areas. Personal, the Witches, the Brotherhood, Demons, and more.
• I was very happy to see Nava making friends with those in her Brotherhood house.
What Bothered Me:
• Nava has grown a little, but not as much as she should have. She’s not so wild and out of control as she has been, but she still is not thinking through her actions.
• I’m also disappointed in the lack of training for Nave. She’s in the Brotherhood, but she still doesn’t have the training that all the boys have. They started as kids learning and fighting and well Nava didn’t have that. She needs to study and train, yet she’s not.
• We get progress in finding out who is binding demons, but in this area when Nava learns something she goes to either the Witches, Demons, or the Brotherhood, the ones who know what she is doing, and she tells them that information, which then stirs up a hornets nest. She doesn’t ask discrete questions or investigate well. What she does is get everyone ruffled up.
• And, her relationship. It’s been an on again off again thing. Nava and Rohan are in a good place at the start, but at the end it’s off again. I’m so over this up and down romance. I’m also disappointed that Rohan doesn’t share his personal life aka his history with Nava. He knows everything about her, yet she still doesn’t know things about him that she should. I’m also upset with Nava; because of a choice she makes at the end which she knows won’t end well for her and it doesn’t. Now, I will say that their sexy time is sexy, but I did have an issue with the author trying to progress their relationship with them have sex without a condom. I didn’t have an issue with the no condom. My issue is I didn’t feel that they where ready for that step in their relationship.
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Crave was just ok. The story was slow throughout and it left me with with more questions by the end about the Brotherhood, the Witches, and the Demons as well as feeling sad about Nava and Rohan’s relationship. I’m at a point where I’m not sure if I want to continue with the Nava Katz series. Their was just to much that bothered me this time around.
Rated: 3 Stars
This is absolutely one of my fave series! I want to be BFF’s with Nava. She is smart, sassy, and kick-a**!! I am totally fangirling over her and Ro’s relationship. The author does an amazing job in each book of divulging more back story as well as dropping bread crumbs of info making the reader want more. As with the other books the world building is amazing and the action non stop. A definite must read for all Fantasy Fans!
This book was good. It’s a life gone wrong in that sort of way. It is one that I will recommend to all my friends. It’s been a while since I’ve read a paranormal romance but it kept my mind thinking. I give this 4 stars. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book as an Advanced Reader’s Copy.
Good Read.
I got this as an ARC for my honest review I have read all three of the other books and being that I got this as an ARC I am going to have a more detailed review compared to my normal reviews. My review and stars have nothing to do with the ARC. I hate spoilers so there will not be any in this book, however, having read the last three I can tell you that you will not be disappointed with this book. If you have not read the other three books I suggest getting those before this or you will be lost
This book starts off where the last one ended Nava and Ro are settling into their relationship and trying to uncover the mystery of the Brotherhood and the demons they believe they have made or bound. All of our favorites are back Leo, Ari, Kane ect. We also get more information about the witches and how they play into not only the current stories about how the Brotherhood really came about. I do not want to give any spoilers but we do get some information about Nava and how she is able to be a member of the brotherhood, I did not really find the reasoning behind her powers surprising but was happy to find that I was right. I thought she made some not so wonderful choices in this book I understand her choices where to save those she loves, however, I think she had a touch to much anguish and worrying I wanted more butt-kicking female lead like we have seen in the other books while I still loved Nava in this book there was more emotional conflict that leads to more bad choices than good in the long run.
We get to see more into Nava’s family life in this book and her relationship with her parents and her issues resulting from these that help give a better understanding of some of her insecurities. Ari and Kane are away on assignment so we get some interaction but not much with them, I would like to see a side story about these two and how they progress outside of the main books, like the POV we get from Ro and Drio in the past in Crush and Slay. We also get Leo and Drio in this book as we all know Drio has no idea about Leo half-demon status you have to read this book to see how this progresses but it is an interesting twist on the story that is wonderful and heartbreaking. We also see Drio and Nava becoming not friends, but comrades if this will continue? I hope so, however, they have new issues to work out at the end of this book, but I am rooting for this friendship. We get more backstory of Drio and I hope he gets an HEA the poor man deserves it. Nava will do anything for those she sees as family and friends to the point of causing issues in her relationships, in some cases I understood where the author is going with this mindset but I really hope in the next book that we get more confidence and communication between Nava and those she cares about it seems that communication would have fixed a few of the issue between her and her family and friends.
Nava is unsure of herself and her relationship in this book and really worries about her and Ro though most of the book and how she cannot be what Lily was even though that is not what Ro was looking for he wanted Nava. Her insecurity about this relationship really helped you to relate to her as a character, we have all had that relationship where we think that the relationship is doomed, however I thought it got to be a bit much in this book, I think that they could not have had so much emotional baggage and still have a good story. A large part of these books is her feelings and connection with Ro and there are enough other storyline and mystery to keep this book going without having to have them so insecure, however, in the end, her insecurities cause discord not only between her and Ro but her and the rest of her team. I found where they were at the end of the story heartbreaking but I can also see where the author is going with their relationship in the next book hopefully and how they may fulfill a prophecy. I really hope that this relationship is out back to right and is resolved in the next book because outside of the mystery of the brotherhood the main reason I love these books is this relationship between Nava and Ro.
This story is fun and a wonderful read I read it in one night I had to finish the book and while it leaves on a cliffhanger I hope we do not have to wait too long for the next one. I have this author on my Amazon watch list and my Goodreads list and plan on keeping her there. I hope the next book is not too long because I need to know what happens. Deborah Wilde did an amazing job on this book.
