Kane

By: Jacquelyn Frank

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

Kane knows Corrine was meant to be his...just as he knows that truly possessing the lovely human is forbidden. But on the night of the Samhain moon, the beast in every demon is stronger than reason, and Kane's hunger is more powerful than any punishment....

Contains mature themes.

If you like fever dreams… Go for it

First off- Xe Sands narrates every other book in the series and this narrator completely ruined the voices of so many of the characters. She made Noah’s voice sound old and frail. Just terrible. But let’s get to the plot. It’s like the weirdest sex-driven dream/nightmare I’ve ever experienced. Corinne and Kane are imprinted so their bond is literally irresistible, but Corinne has ZERO memory of the 5-second intro she even got to Kane in the first place. HOWEVER the author just puts her waking up, NAKED, in bed next to Kane who is literally shackled by his hands and feet so he doesn’t give in to his moon-crazed urges and take advantage of her. The back and forth of sexual tension mixed with Kane having to convince Corinne of this entirely alien world she’s now a part of while they’re literally imprisoned together was just…uncomfortable for me. I honestly feel sorry for both characters and I wish they could have gotten a better story (like all the other couples in the series) rather than a few hours of being forced by “the moon and destiny” to come to grips with so much life-altering news. The other books in the series are SO much better. Both the writing and narration. This was a disappointment, for sure.

Great story!

The story was great but too short. The narrator was good but the one who performed Jacob was better. it was easier to tell the characters apart in Jacob.

a bit rapey..

Mind controlled. Forced into various positions. Mind gaped to be honest. Everything stolen Mind. from emotions to past. Just bad.

Possible Spoilers:
This story picks up from the scene with Kane in the book ‘Jacob’. It does not advance the series at all - nothing about necromancers. Kane touched Corinne before Jacob interrupted and had Kane send her away and wipe the memory. This was before Jacob learned of the bond between demons and druids. Corinne had started to fade away from lack of contact so King Noah and Kane’s mentor found a way for the two to be in contact without letting the pull of Samhain take over.
Eyre did a decent job of narration.

Kane

Oh I forgot how much I loved this series. I don’t know how I missed this book when I was reading the others, but I am so glad I found it now. Kane and Corrine brought me back to a world I missed. While it was short it added so much to the story I already knew.
