To be quite honest, I’m not a huge fan of anthologies in general, though i don’t mind reading short stories at all. Into The Dark caught my attention for almost all stories being set in the same world, Showalter’s Lords of The Underworld Series.
I was very pleasantly surprised by the stories and the bonus material in this book, it is a treasure trove for a LOTU fan, and I am proud to be one =)
The Darkest Fire and The Darkest Prison are the two shorts that are set in the LOTI world. TDF is a prequel and a great look at the very beginning of the Lords history. TDP is a love story between two mortal enemies and even though it’s short, it’s very compelling and touching.
There is also a short set in Gena’s Atlantis series, however i haven’t read that series yet and I don’t like reading a short from a series I have yet to read, so I’m leaving it for a later time.
Now, the real gold is this book, in my opinion, are the extras. There is an Interview of Gena Showalter by her friend Kresley Cole. An interview of The Lords by William, a round table of the LOTU women, The Hunter’s Files on the Lords and more.
The Interviews made by William are hilarious! They got me cracking up. Kresley and Gena’s talk was also extremely funny and natural All these extras just add to an already amazing series and gives us some tips as to where the story might lead.
If you are a Lords of The Underworld series, this is a must read! You’ll get a closer look at the Lords life and I guarantee you’ll love it and laugh out loud!
