Product Description:
The most anticipated story in the blockbuster Dark-Hunter series. The never-before-revealed story of the Dark-Hunter leader, Acheron. He was made human in order to escape death, but in death he was reborn a god. . .
Eleven thousand years ago a god was born. Cursed into the body of a human, Acheron spent a lifetime of shame. However, his human death unleashed an unspeakable horror that almost destroyed the earth. Then, brought back against his will, Acheron became the sole defender of mankind.
Only it was never that simple. For centuries, he has fought for our survival and hidden a past he’ll do anything to keep concealed. Until a lone woman who refuses to be intimidated by him threatens his very existence.
Now his survival, and ours, hinges on hers and old enemies reawaken and unite to kill them both.
War has never been more deadly... or more fun.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Finally, Acheron!
I love this series of books! This is not my normal reading material but a friend introduced me and now I'm hooked on Sherrilyn Kenyon. - SPOILERS MAY FOLLOW - I can not tell you how excited I was that Acheron's story was going to be told, but let me tell you it isn't an easy story to read. I felt the first part of the book was very difficult to read due to the history of violence that makes Acheron who he becomes. Although, once you get through the first of the book, the second half flies by. ... Read More
Rating:  - Finally Acheron's story
I'm a huge Dark-Hunter fan, and had been waiting for Ash's story for a while. The story was enjoyable, though there's the double edged sword of finally seeing Ash's side of things. Yes, it was great to tear into the book and finally read his side, but the air of mystery is gone now and Ash doesn't seem as Larger Than Life as he used to.
As far as the story goes, I thought it was good. Some things that could have made it better were to compress the first half, it was too long and drawn ... Read More
Rating:  - 728 more reasons to love Ash
I sat down to read this book with high expectations....and I wasn't disappointed. Acheron has always been my favorite DH character. It was a thrill to finally have answers to the questions that have been burning since the first time I met him in 'Unleash the Night' (yeah, I read them out of order the first time through). Now I know where he came by his wisdom, his compassion and his sincere devotion to those he leads and protects. I also finally get why he put up with Artemis for so long (there has ... Read More
Rating: - 4.5 stars - 723 pages connecting the dots to Ash's HEA
At long last the complete story of 'Ash' Acheron. At 723 pages this was three books in one.
Part 1 tells the story of Ash's early life from his sister's point of veiw as diary entries, as she struggles to try an help the poor cursed Ash as a young man. This is heart wrenching, and a bit frustrating as his sister's kindness only leads him to more pain. Part two switches to Ash's point of view and to more torment and his transition from man to God at his death, if you didn't hate Artemis ... Read More
Rating: - An amazing read.
I only recently stumbled across this series. I've read all of the novels and novellas in the last month, so I suppose one might assume that I didn't eagerly anticipate "Acheron." It was, after all, already out when I began reading "Fantasy Lover." However, from the first mention of Acheron, I had to force myself not to skip straight to the last book. I'm so glad I waited. While "Acheron" could be read as a stand-alone, the reader would miss out on so much, and the depth and richness of Ash's character ... Read More
