Query: Unfortunate Disappointment

I loved the books of the Cynster series up until this one. When you compare with masterpieces like Devil's Bride, this was positively shallow and disappointing. This book got me reading the reviews for the Cynster books that followed this, and I don't think I'd buy any of them. In fact I will give away this book and just pretend that the Cynster series ended with Simon's story.So why didn't I like the story? The whole storyline felt like an altered and lackluster version of Demon and Flick's story (what a great story that was!), but with far less likable characters. I agree with the reviewer who called the characters "overly-narcissitic", and that was a big turn off. Too much sex (I too ended up skipping pages to get past it), too little integrity on the part of the main characters and just plain boring storytelling in my opinion.All in all, this was a book that I wish I never wasted my money on. Oh well!
