Product Description
BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Karen Marie Moning's Bloodfever.
MacKayla Lane’s life is good. She has great friends, a decent job, and a car that breaks down only every other week or so. In other words, she’s your perfectly ordinary twenty-first-century woman. Or so she thinks…until something extraordinary happens.
When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death–a cryptic message on Mac’s cell phone–Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers. The quest to find her sister’s killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed–a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae….
As Mac delves deeper into the mystery of her sister’s death, her every move is shadowed by the dark, mysterious Jericho, a man with no past and only mockery for a future. As she begins to close in on the truth, the ruthless Vlane–an alpha Fae who makes sex an addiction for human women–closes in on her. And as the boundary between worlds begins to crumble, Mac’s true mission becomes clear: find the elusive Sinsar Dubh before someone else claims the all-powerful Dark Book–because whoever gets to it first holds nothing less than complete control of the very fabric of both worlds in their hands….

 Kudos to Karen Moning for an enthralling new series November 6, 2006

Karen Moning has a rare and perfect gift--the ability to transport me to other worlds and captivate me with every book she writes. In this noisy, hectic world we all live in, I find it very hard to totally lose myself in a book. It takes a special author to guide me on such a mesmerizing journey, and Karen is on a shortlist of authors who always--ALWAYS--make me lose myself in her world. DARKFEVER is no exception. Suspenseful, sensual, and immediate, she weaves her famililar magic in this series launch book, making me want to read more (and stamp my feet and pout until I can get it in my eager hands!)
If you're a fan of Karen Moning--or even if you've never read her other books--this new book is a must read!

It doesn't happen that often that I find a series that I have to read one book after the other non-stop but after reading Dark Fever I had to read the other 2 books immediately.
I've read KMM's Highlander series and enjoyed them but the Fever series captivated me like nothing else she's written.
Can't wait for the next installment!!
Bravo! December 19, 2008

Thank you, Karen, for creating the first characters that I felt I 'knew' in all of the books I've read in my adult life; Mac, Jerricho and V'Lane. I'm hooked, and can't wait to read the rest of the series!
Very fun & interesting! March 24, 2009

I'm not sure why so many people hated this book--I found it very entertaining and a good read. The heroine of the book is a silly little thing at the beginning, but she grows up fast after her sister is murdered and she travels to Ireland to try to get the police to keep investigating. While there, she discovers that she is one of the few humans who can see faeries, which are actually aliens from another dimension with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men (OK, I'm getting too supermannish here!). She teams up with a mystery man named Jerico who helps her realize her powers and learn about how she can use them to fight the icky critters that betrayed and killed her sister. The romantic tension between her and Jericho is nice, but never comes to fruition, thus saving the book from degenerating into a paranormal romance (shudder, ick, yuck!). Story ends with a good leadup to the following book in the series, Bloodfever. High point of the book--Jericho trying to paint Mac's fingernails after all the action and crazyness towards the end is over. I laughed and laughed!
Not a romance - an excellent, spellbinding ride... May 15, 2009

This book is classified as a romance - it definitely is not one. Die hard romance readers who expect hot romance will be dissapointed.
This is an excellent, spellbinding book about the dark forces of the Fae world invading the earth through portals in Ireland. MacKayla Lane goes to Ireland after her sister is murdered to find her killer. What she finds there is magical and utterly horrifying.
This is an excellent book. It has a firm place on my keeper shelf. I'm looking forward to reading the second installement in the series. I highly recommend this book!
