Deep Deliverance

Great series.

Though this third book in the deep series ended in a way that signals the end, I would love to continue reading and hearing about the adventures of Adin and Donte. The storylines were great. The characters interesting and sexy. And the secondary characters were great as well. I'd like to see what happens as Bran becomes an adult and also learn how Barrett fares without his family. And what happens with Deana as well.

It took awhile, but good conclusion

I'm empathetic enough for all the characters that it makes it hard to take sides and write this review. On one hand, I totally feel for Adin. His life changed drastically in the last book, and choices were take away from him. His behavior at the beginning of the story is a little erratic. It might be his hurt, or because he is a new vampire. It might also be because he isn't quite feeding properly. Donte's betrayal is also complicates things. Adin is angry and I totally think he should be. But on the other hand, I feel for Donte, who didn't want to lose Adin and had a hand in his change, even knowing that Adin didn't want to be changed. There is a part of me that wants Adin to just get over it and learn to live his new life. After all, he loves a vampire so they can't be the monsters he still fears he will be with his change.

Adin's typical stubbornness gets him into some trouble in this series. He is mostly to blame for it, but there is some responsibility that lies on Donte and even his barely enemy Santos. Santos and Donte's feud is really coming to an end and when Adin goes to a funeral for a rival Santos is the one who escorts him around. Until Adin decided to put his trust in a young shifter who drugs him and inadvertently gets him in real hot water. It leads to Adin accidentally taking a life and as he deals with the consequences I found myself crying for Adin. It was his fears come true, the reason he was so stubborn. And It leads to Adin and Donte facing some really difficult choices. I was a bit of an emotional wreck.

It takes a surprise enemy coming after them both before clarity is found and if they survive, they might just get their HEA. I loved the mystery portion of this book and the action. It was a very satisfying conclusion after wading through some murky waters.

great conclustion

Did the story keep me engaged: yes .. this was a great conclusion to the series.
Was it entertaining: yes ...
Were there any parts I found annoying: I found it a little difficult to believe of the 4 elders around Aiden, none of them thought to mention how important it was that he meet with the council, and Aiden behaving like a petulant child around meeting with them.
Would I listen to it again. yes
Narrator comments: Caleb Dickenson is a great choice of narrator for this series, his deep voice and variety of accents are excellent. Good consistency of characters throughout the series - I had no problem distinguishing any of the characters.

So much I couldn't say it all..

Loved the series. But Adin was just to stupid to be real. He was smart and intelligent as shown by his professional accleiads. Then when it came to common sense he didn't seem to have any. That alone made him a very annoying character and not that endearing. Donte was over five hundred years old, and still hung-up on his first love?Really? I guess if he fell in love with such a high maintenance guy he had issues as well.
The narrator was excellent! That deep sensual voice made listening a joy. I will be looking for other books narrated by him.

Loved the series...

Loved the series...Odin and Dante...loved the cast of characters, the intrigue, intimacy, inquisitiveness, loyalty, friendship, love, dedication...an excellent journey...will travel again!

Really good twist to this tale

I was actually surprised by the way the twist in this tale developed. It makes sense given the overall behavior of the parties involved, but it wasn't something I saw coming. Good job! The plot isn't without a few holes, but I've yet to see a perfect story. Really enjoyed this ending to the tale of Adin and Donte.

Good end but...

Geesh! What a whiney wimp he turned out to be!! It was hard getting thru it but I persisted!

I hope there's a Book 4

I listened to all three books and was hooked from the get go. This is a great love story that revolves around two people who love each other deeply but have to work through differences that may be insurmountable. In the mean time, they are going through things both together and individually that are complicated, heartbreaking and hilarious. Caleb Dickinson's narration was excellent, and made the series so much more fun to listen to.
