INTO THE FIRE is the fourth and final book in Jeaniene
Frost's Night
Prince series featuring her vampire
characters Vlad and Leila. This is a series that must be
read in order because so many things happen that are
crucial to the plot, and each book picks up exactly where
the previous one left off. INTO THE FIRE has everything
you could dream of and more. The first two books in the
Night
Prince series introduced Leila and gave fans a
better understanding of who Vlad is deep down. The third
book in this series put the main characters, as well as
readers, through the wringer emotionally but showcased
how strong Leila and Vlad are -- both together as well as
separately. In this final installment, Vlad and Leila are
once again tested but INTO THE FIRE is a superbly
balanced story that has witty one-liners and magical
quests with loyal friends and uneasy alliances.
Magic plays a big part in INTO THE FIRE, and Vlad and
Leila's ancient vampire ally Mencheres offers up fan
favorite and delicious antihero Ian as a guide into the
dark world of rogue magic users. Ian is his typical witty
and deadly self, and Jeaniene Frost uses him very
strategically and skillfully without having his larger-
than-life persona eclipse the main characters or the bulk
of the book. As a fan of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and
the J. R. R. Tolkien books, I love a story with an
eclectic collection of characters on a quest, and INTO
THE FIRE definitely qualifies. Even though INTO THE FIRE
has sacrifice and some tense and deeply moving scenes, I
think I laughed more while reading this book than while
reading any of the previous books in the series.
INTO THE FIRE is a smorgasbord of magical delights and a
triumphant love story. I love Vlad's gleeful fiery
retribution at the opening of INTO THE FIRE because it
sets the tone for the fabulousness to come. Leila is
fierce in this installment and she is equal to some of
the most badass comic book female characters. The
tantalizing tidbits at the end of INTO THE FIRE make me
ravenous for the next Jeaniene Frost book set in this
world.
In the explosive finale to New York Times bestselling author
Jeaniene Frost’s Night Prince series, Vlad is in
danger of losing his bride to an enemy whose powers might
prove greater than the Prince of Vampires’ . . .In the wrong
hands, love can be a deadly weapon
For nearly six hundred years, Vlad Tepesh cared for nothing,
so he had nothing to lose. His brutal reputation ensured
that all but the most foolhardy stayed away. Now, falling in
love with Leila has put him at the mercy of his passions.
And one adversary has found a devastating way to use Vlad’s
new bride against him.
A powerful spell links Leila to the necromancer Mircea. If
he suffers or dies, so does she. Magic is forbidden to
vampires, so Vlad and Leila enlist an unlikely guide as they
search for a way to break the spell. But an ancient enemy
lies in wait, capable of turning Vlad and Leila’s closest
friends against them . . . and finally tearing the lovers
apart forever.
