I have wanted to read this book since I first encountered Ash (Acheron) in the Dark-Hunter series. I'm pretty sure it was pretty early on (thinking the 2nd in the series) but I've been intrigued by the silent and lone character for ages. With every story Kenyon writes she makes Ash more interesting and his book didn't disappoint. I can't wait to see Ash and Tori in other books! 
 I have to say that almost the first half of the book are flashbacks or journal entries (made by Ash's sister Ryssa). These flashbacks were hard to take at times because we discover the horror of Ash's human life and the circumstances surrounding his life and death. Despite the harsh imagery and the length of this part, it was still worth reading as it makes you understand a lot more about Ash's past and the reason for the things he does. 
 After you have hashed your way through the all of that you get to the now. Ash read and willing to humiliate Tori who believes in the existence of Atlantis. Ash doesn't want people to know about Atlantis because it will uncover his past and possibly the existence of his mother (Apollymi) who is still locked up, thus preventing the world from ending. 
 Ash is well developed and we really get to see the reasons behind the things he does. It is refreshing to see that despite years of abuse Ash has a heart and can overcome his fears to be with someone he cares for. We really get to see what Ash does in his spare time (not that he has much). It is really great to finally get that glimpse into the reclusive Dark-Hunter. 
 Tori is also pretty well thought out and we discover that she has ties to Ash's daughter (Katra- apparently the were roommates for a time). Tori's family has been searching for Atlantis for a longs time (The Dream-Hunter).Tori is set on proving its existence and that her father and uncle were not crazy. 
 There are some wonderful moments and because it is Ash's book there are a lot of great Simi moments! It is well worth the time! I thoroughly enjoyed it and am disappointed it is over. As for whether or not I will keep the book... after spending two day going to every bookstore praying they had a copy there is no way I'm parting with this book or Ash. I'm keeping HIM!
