Review for “Evermore” by Lynn Viehl

This is a novel of the Darkyn. They are vampires, no matter what name you apply to them. This is one of my favorites in the series. Byrne was saved by a 17 year old runaway from a convent back during the black plague. Jayr, though she still looks 17 after all this time, has been his faithful right hand and servant for centuries. She has learned to fight, organize the entire castle and still have time to obsess over Byrne’s every move. Wow, that is patient. I couldn’t do it. But is comes off as very romantic, sweet and not creepy at all. There is a lot of interesting internal plots and reoccurring characters through out the series. I got very attached to the growth of these people. Hope you do too. ( )

One of the best of the series so far. Enjoyed the characters and the setting at a medieval theme park stocked with Darkyn. Also enjoyed the break from the Brethren storyline. Although a minor character in this book, the story of Robin of Locksley was cool. Look forward to his own book. ( )

Most romance series are simply books inhabiting the same world, but Viehl's Darkyn series are an interrelated plot and if you read them out of order you will be lost. Even reading them in order, requires memory and commitment. I don't love these books, but everytime one comes out, sooner or later I read it. They are complex and medieval in tone, though set in the present. The Vampires, known as darkyn, haven't really caught up with the 21st century when it comes to their social structures. They are basically still iving as knight warriors (they were originally knight templars)
The series started when the Seigner of the US hires a doctor to fix him, and then she becomes the first human turned into a vampire since medieval times. We meet them again in this book, but while they are important to the story, the central romance is that of Jayr and Byrne. I actually liked Jayr's character, she wasn't like the usual vampire heroines. Byrne is the more typical tortured vampire, worried that he is losing control, worried that he will kill those he loves. But Jayr actually had a bit of a feel of a medieval woman, or at least not a 21st century one.
The plot is unbelievable and even ludicrous with weird coincidences and gaping holes (why the villian only kills one person and not all 3, how does that make sense?!) and it's also really obvious, but somehow the growing relation of Micheal and Alex, and the tension between Jayr and Byrne work. Not a keeper, but worth exploring, B+ ( )

Another complex novel in the darkyn world. It does seem as the author is trying too hard to split the story between the "main" characters Byrne and Jayr, and the "sub" characters Michael and Alexandra. Some of the plot lines seem rushed, and some seem to drag.

That being said, I do love the darkyn and I couldn't put this book down. ( )

"Evermore" is the fifth in Lynn Viehl's vampire series. The main characters love each other, but each believes the other sees them only as a friend. Their attraction is complicated by vampire etiquette, because Jayr is Bryne's seneschal. She is determined to fully honor her oath of service to Byrne, and he is equally determined to not take advantage of his power over her.

Someone is attempting to kill Bryne, and it is Jayr's duty to protect him. She is the only female seneschal among the Kyn, which makes her extra sensitive to any implication that her lord isn't served as well as the other suzerains.

"Evermore" is a great book which examines the meaning of friendship, love, sexual attraction and fidelity, amidst a fascinating story about people who can live forever - vampires.

The characters from "Evermore" (and Lynn's other Darkyn novels) are so real that they live in my mind long after I've read "The End". Viehl has created another keeper with "Evermore". ( )
