Nora Roberts is the #1���������������������������New York Times-bestselling author of more than 200 novels. She is also the author of the bestselling���������������������������In Death���������������������������series written under the pen name J.D. Robb. There are more than 500 million copies of her books in print.
I just finished the trilogy and I loved them! I generally wouldn't be drawn to anything with vampires in it, but the way Nora Roberts did these books were just awesome. I tend to read in spirts - a few minutes here and there and never more than a hour at a time... just comes with having two small children. So with these, by the second book, I was squeezing in extra time to read it and on the third, I finished within a few days with the help of a couple late nights. It was addicting - and I was sad when it was over! I've read a handful of Nora Roberts books and I think these were one of the best. Great read! I plan to read the trilogy again soon. I think I'll enjoy them just as much the second time.

I don't buy vampire books (with the exception of "Dracula") and I'm not into the idea of romantic vampires. Because of this, I didn't buy any of this trilogy until after the 3rd book was published. Even then, I bought the 3 books on ebay because I just didn't think they would be worth the (full) price. Frankly, I would never have bought them but I really enjoy Nora Roberts' books.
I finally decided to read Book 1 when I had nothing else to read. By the end of the first chapter, I was hooked.
I read all three books in 3 days. I just couldn't stop reading!
For anyone who doesn't want to buy this trilogy because they are "vampire books", don't let that stop you. The story isn't about vampires roaming the earth - it's about so much more. Friendship. Love. Courage. The ultimate fight between good and evil. Willing to sacrifice everything for the better good.
I found myself crying before the end of the third book, even though I knew it was "only a book".
I absolutely loved this series and was saddened when it ended. I wanted to know what happened next, which is something I've rarely felt in many years of reading.
And now I'm open to more books of this genre.

Whichever it is, I'll clap for Ms. Roberts and the job she did with this book. It is the final one of this trilogy, and well worth the wait. There are missteps here, the biggest one being the predictability of certain plot developments, and certainly I'd say the ending of the book is predictable, but by the time these predictable things happened, the characters were so much in my heart that it didn't matter if they acted as I imagined they would even before the book began. (Note: it's the predictability that kept me from giving this 5 stars.)
Cian, the vampire protagonist, is particularly finely drawn. His cold demeanor, his insistence that he does not share human traits with the other members of the Circle--all of these are there, but so are the moments when he acknowledges those human traits he can no longer deny. He battles so much in this book, and his story is engrossing. He becomes someone I felt I understood, which is exactly what I'd hoped would happen. He was not well-developed in the previous two books (note: that's as it should be, I think, as each book had a focus, and this book was the one that focused on Cian, whereas the other two focused on different characters), but here--oh, yes. He becomes much, much more.
Moira, the warrior queen, the one with whom he is matched up in this book, is equally engaging. Her spirit made me smile throughout, and her missteps reminded me that she is no perfect protagonist. Her human needs and compassion rule her at times, while at most others she is keenly focused on her duties, her obligations to her people, her role in the battle to come.
The "bad guys" are developed more, too, which gives this novel a nice balance. Wouldn't do to have the bad guys be one-dimensional, hey?Read more ›

I was looking for a vampire romance novel and was thrilled to see that Nora Roberts had written one. I was very quickly drawn into the series with the first book (finished it in 2 days!) and couldn't wait to keep reading the next books. I finished all three books in 5 days. I liked the relationship between Hoyt and Cian. Yes, the characters are a bit stereotypical, but the story was entertaining and captivating. My favorite book was the last one (Valley of Silence), followed by the first one (Morrigan's Cross). I felt that the central characters in the second book weren't fully developed in the first book for me to relate to them as much. Nora Roberts, as always, was able to draw me in and have me crying and feeling what the characters felt. Fabulous!
