Sin, a Sumerian god in ancient times, is yet another
casualty of Artemis. Artemis, goddess of the hunt, with the
help of her handmaiden, Katra, took Sin's powers and left
him to die. Acheron, also known as Ash, came to his aid and
turned him into a Dark-Hunter. Sin has lived many centuries
as a Dark-Hunter, alone in his mission, with a reputation
for brutal annihilation of demons and humans alike. Living
in Las Vegas as a big casino owner, Sin meets each day
resigned to his fate, with the hope that one day he will
fulfill his vow of revenge on Artemis and reclaim his
powers.
Fearing what Sin is capable of, Artemis sends Katra to Las
Vegas to kill him. Katra, also known as Kat, observes Sin
brutally decapitating a human and setting the body on fire.
Ready to kill him to save the humans, Kat almost becomes a
victim of a demon, but Sin comes to her rescue. She
witnesses what he is truly doing, saving humanity from an
evil so vile that only Sin can remove it. Kat learns of
Sin's suffering, understands his mission and easily falls
in love with him.
Sin has a burden to carry. Once the god of fertility and
the moon, Sin, with his brother, Zakar's help, buried gallu
in a sealed chamber. Now the gallu are about to escape and
Sin is the only one who can save mankind. Demons are
holding Zakar captive. They know that without Zakar, Sin
won't be able to stop them from freeing the gallu. It's up
to Sin to find a way to keep the chamber sealed. To do so,
he must enlist the help of Artemis and Kat, the two women
who can destroy him. Sin must trust Kat. To prove his trust
and his love for her, he reveals to her a way to kill him.
She in return tells him how to take away her powers. Kat
wonders if their love can survive her secret, a secret that
can only crush Sin and make him hate her forever.
DEVIL MAY CRY brings Kat back from a previous story. Sin
and Kat fight for what they believe in, sacrificing all in
the name of love. The dialogue is great, the passion a must
for Kenyon's stories. I was excited to learn more
background about Ash, and more of the twisted tale of the
bond between Ash and Artemis. My bookshelf is growing with
Kenyon's series. I'll keep dusting off space for more to
come.
Sin is an ancient god whose godhead was stolen by Artemis. Ever since that moment, he's done nothing but plot his revenge. When a chance meeting gives him the opportunity he's been waiting for he seizes it without hesitation. But things aren't what they appear and suddenly the hunter finds himself the hunted.
