Dragonswan (Were-Hunter, #0.5)
by

Dragonswan is a part of the Dark-Hunterverse series, it contains references to the basic mythology of the Were Hunter series. It explains not only the origins and the roots of the conflict between the Arcadians and the Katagaria, but provides a very coherent myth behind it.
The characteristics, specialities of Arcadians and Katagaria are very interesting and logical.
Sebastian is a typical alpha hero with the appearance of a Greek god, a pinch of remorse, and some extras, such as shape-shifting and time-traveler abilities, and almost immortal life.
The romance between Sebastian and Channon is simplified, so are the action line, and the frame story of Sebastian’s current aim and deeds. The time frame is not clear. The reader doesn’t know what time they arrive back in the past (sometime in the Anglo-Saxon period), and when the tragedy happened earlier that eventually lead Sebastian to the future.
The writing is full of repetitions. Not only words, but whole expressions return. Furthermore, I miss the moving and heart-wrenching emotionality that is usual from Sherrilyn Kenyon.
All in all,it is really worth reading it if the root of the conflict between the Arcadians and the Katagaria is not clear for you.
If you are a devoted Dark Hunter fan, you should definitely read it, but keep in mind that the storytelling has some flaws, and you have to know that no Dark Hunter appears in the story! :)
