One Silent Night

A Dark-Hunter Novel

By: Sherrilyn Kenyon

Narrated by: Fred Berman

While the world carries on unawares, Stryker, who leads an army of demons and vampires, is plotting an all out onslaught against his enemies—which, unfortunately for us, includes the entire human race. To avenge his sister, Stryker prepares to annihilate the Dark-Hunters. But things go awry when his oldest enemy returns. Enter his ex-wife. Zephyra. Just when he thought nothing could stop him, he's now embroiled in a centuries old war with a shrew who gives new meaning to pain.

Critic reviews

"This series puts a contemporary spin on classical mythology...irresistible." (Publishers Weekly)

“A new twist on the gods of mythology, ONE SILENT NIGHT continues the saga of the conflict between gods and men. Never skipping a beat, mega-talented Sherrilyn Kenyon creates a fast moving plot that doesn't stop and with characters that stretch the imagination. An incredible read.” —Single Titles

“Brisk, ironic, sexy, and relentlessly imaginative.” —Boston Globe

Not a fan of the Narrator

I love all of her books! I've been re'reading' them through audiobooks. I loved the first two narrators, but I couldn't get over how different and unappealing his voices were from the previous narrator.

he makes the woman sound like men and the men sound like old men struggling to breathe.

I'm hoping the next book has a different narrator!

3 Because of Narrator

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The book itself was good. Have heard better from the series.

How could the performance have been better?

The narrator is why I gave a 3 for overall. I had a really hard time with the voices he used for different characters.

Could you see One Silent Night being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

No

So disappointed......

I usually do not write reviews, but I feel I have to for this book. As a fan of the Dark Hunters series, and in anticipation of the new book release, I decided to listen to the whole series as a refresher to get reacquainted with the characters, story lines and sub plots. Having read the books and had the characters come to life in my imagination, I started listening knowing that performances by the narrators would not be the same as what I think they would sound like; ie accents, tone and attitude. So, I take the performances with a grain of salt. And at the risk of sounding judgemental, I was sorely disappointed with this book. Actually, I'm almost offended. I realize that this is my opinion, and that others may have enjoyed the performance. But, I was truly unhappy listening to this. Being one of the shorter books in the series, it took me forever to get through this book. The characters were reduced to whiney, sniveling characters. The narrator managed to make the female characters sound more manly than the males. And if not that, they were reduced to some sort of "valley girl" type character. This is only my opinion. But had I not already read the books and been such a big fan, and been knew to the series and if I had listened to this one first......I would not have listened to anymore in the series. And that would have been extremely sad. A down right shame......

Another great book

I absolutely love this book and series! I reread this series everytime a new books comes out
