Styxx, Acheron’s twin brother, who had turned away from him and had become the favored son at Acheron’s expense.Īrtemis …….have I ever hated a character so much as hers? Her cruelty towards Archeron. And the final tragedy in her life and how much heartache it caused Acheron was so damn sad. And how she was used the same way like him by her father, who married her off to Apollo, who clearly had no feelings for her. Ryssa, Acheron’s sister who loved him and protected him where she could. There were so many memorable characters in this story that I either hated or loved with total passion.Īcheron, beautiful, broken,lonely, lost. It was like I suddenly saw light after being in this tunnel of darkness with Acheron. But the 2nd part is what made it so special for me. I struggled with the first part of the book, primarily because it was such a dark part of Acheron’s life.
I felt his fear, his grief, and his pain, his joy. I cried, I raged as I experienced his parents rejection, the cruelty, the torture and the abuse – physical, emotional and sexual - he endured by evil family and foes alike, the manner in which people exploited him with no regard to his being- like Artemis and Apollo. Acheron’s life was an embodiment of tragedy and sadness and also of courage and happiness. Acheron, a character that has stayed with me for a very long time. I don’t remember when last I was so I absorbed into a world and characters that became so real to me. It’s amazing that, no matter how many times I read this book, it continues to consume all my senses….pulled at my emotions all over again. I decided to read this book again, before getting started on Styxx. and it made me into a die-hard fan of Sherrilyn Kenyon (who up to this time, I had never heard of or knew about her books). STILL MY ALL TIME FAVORITE IN THIS SERIES!!!Īcheron was the first book I ever read by this author…. Join her and her Paladins online at and Fan Run International Sites:
