The Black Dagger Brotherhood Series	Customer Rating:
This series is a must read for anyone with a passion for vampires. Wish there were more books in the series.

You will fall in love with the characters

Customer Rating:

I randomly started reading this series after stumbling across it several times here on Amazon. I really liked Dark Lover. It was a very enjoyable read. There were some cliche moments towards the end, and I wasn't particularly interested in the Mr X storyline, but as a whole it was very entertaining. The best thing about it was the characters. You will just fall in love with them. They each have flaws, but somehow this just seems to add to their appeal. Looking forward to reading the next in the series.

If you haven't given Vampire genre a chance Please Do..I had no idea	Customer Rating:
Generally I like to read a mixture of things but, paranormal or horror were not books that i would read. I bought Twilight as a beach read and became hooked on "Edward" and wondered if this vampire thing had something going for it....It does !!! The men in the Blackdagger Brotherhood are the stuff that female dreams are made of. I highly recommend this series.

something different...	Customer Rating:
I enjoyed reading this book. What I liked about the book was that the author made our hero tough but he has his flaw and he was man enough to own up to them. I also liked that she made him sort of blind. In vampire romances the Vamp. is always perfect. I liked the way the other characters related to one another. this book is worth reading.

Black Dagger Brotherhood Series - 1st three awesome - then they go downhill

Customer Rating:

This series started off so good. I read them for the awesome love and passion, the loyalty of the Brothers, to their cause and to their mates. A woman could not be more appreciated, prized, protected, and loved. The Brothers are awesome. Dark Lover is the story of the King, Wrath, and how he finds his mate, a half-breed vampire and daughter of his best friend. It is passionate and touching. They don't come much tougher, or bigger, than Wrath, but he can also be remarkably gentle with his mate. Lover Awakened is my favorite of all in the series. It's the story of Zhadist whose past is so brutal that he is now cold and unfeeling, and how he overcomes the effects of his past when he finds his true mate Bella, a full blooded vampire. After he helps her through her transition, a life or death change for a vampire, they are hopelessly bound, physically and emotionally. Very sensual and passionate. Lover Eternal is the story of Rhage, another great book in the series. It is my third favorite, after the first two, and that is because of the ending. Rhage has a sort of alter ego, the beast, that he cannot control. In spite of that, he finds his mate, Mary, who is a human, a human with a negative prognosis. But when a Brother finds his mate, he loves completely so there is no turning back. A Brother mates for life and that life is hundreds of years long, so yes, the ending is not bad, but neither does it achieve that feeling we get with Good Endings to love stories. Even with a sub par ending, the story is great. Lover Revealed was a total disappointment. I expected the story of Butch to be as good as the first three, but alas, it surely failed that. Butch's story in the first three books, especially the first, had such potential. And the premise was good, that a human with no place any longer in the human world gravitates to the Brotherhood, and is even considered for induction into the Brotherhood, even has his eye on his potential mate. But it pretty much falls flat of that potential. Lover Unbound was another disappointment. Still waiting for what I found in the first three books in the series. It's the story of Vishous, who is a totally wonderful Brother, like all the Brothers - gorgeous, huge, fearless, powerful, loyal, virile. And his story of finding his mate and overcoming his brutal past is good. And the metaphysical ending is not really bad, but it's not a very satisfying ending to such a great story. The book should not be missed in the series, just to keep track of what everyone is up to, but again, it does not come up to snuff with the first three. Lover Enshrined is a step up from the last two disappointments. Not as good as the first three (I'm wondering if Ward will ever get back to the quality of her first 3.) but much better than the last three. The story of Phury, who is Zhadist's twin, is moving and gives me hope that maybe the next book will bring back the charisma of the first 3 books. Phury gets sucked in by the Scribe Virgin for most of the book, struggling with his so-called duty as the stud of the Brotherhood, and he is sooo Not built for it emotionally. But definitely worth the read, just maybe not a re-read. Overall, the series is great. Just don't expect too much after the third book. The Brothers are awesome males. Each Brother has untold emotional depths, incomparable virility, unbounding physical strength, and admirable loyalty to the 'hood and their mates. Every woman's fantasy. And hey, these battles with the Lessening Society are mostly tiresome. I know we need the bad guys, as well as the good guys, but the Lessors are just disgusting. Mostly I just skip those sections.
