Dreams of a Dark Warrior by Kresley Cole

(Luckily, he does not directly torture her as implied in Demon from the Dark. She doesn’t lightly forgive Declan’s actions, either. She’s a fount of hilarious and deadly bad attitude. Dreams of a Dark Warrior offers new perspective on how Regin became the person she is, but her character doesn’t make any big changes. (I didn’t have a problem with the drug use, but I know that sort of thing bothers a lot of people.) Declan also takes a lot of drugs, since he’s actually a berserker rather than a human. Even with believable motivation for his actions, it’s hard to feel sympathetic for a guy who can’t see that torturing a sentient being is wrong. Preston Webb, Declan’s boss in the Order, helped to foster that unthinking hatred. He survived his family’s gruesome death by a group of Immortals, which caused him to hate all immortals and work with the Order to capture and study them. It took awhile for me to warm up to Declan.

He’s Aidan’s reincarnation, sure, but he’s also his own person. Cole does a good job of meeting those expectations in an unexpected manner by first revealing how little other characters knew about Regin’s ill-fated romance and proceeding from there.ĭeclan Chase is the hero of the story, not Aidan the Fierce. Kresley Cole introduced the story of Regin and Aiden at the beginning of her Immortals After Dark series, so I had a number of expectations when I started Dreams of a Dark Warrior.
