Product Description
In the war against vampires, mankind has only one hope: The Dark-Hunters. Ancient warriors who died of brutal betrayal, the Dark-Hunters have sworn themselves into the service of the goddess Artemis to protect us.
It's a pact with pretty good perks. Immortality, power, psychic abilities, wealth and a cool wardrobe. But it comes with a few drawbacks: fatal sun poisoning and a new, irreparable dental problem. But aside from the fangs and nocturnal lifestyle, it's not so bad. Kyrian is an immortal Dark-Hunter who just lost his Dark-Hunter powers and along with it, his immortality. Now he is faced with the chance to regain not only his humanity, but his very soul. The problem is, it couldn’t have happened at a worse time. Desiderius is closing in and if Kyrian and Amanda are going to save humanity then Kyrian must take the war to his enemy or it may be too late.

Excellent Manga Adaptation March 8, 2010 Lunataina (Miami, Florida, USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I truly enjoyed this second installement of the Dark Hunter Manga Series. This is the second half of the book Night Pleasures by Sherrilyn Kenyon (the first half is in volume 1). As mentioned in the description, it is mainly Kyrian and Amanda's story, although fans of the series know that they keep showing up in novels later on, so their story doesn't end yet. The novel was adapted well to the manga format. I think dividing the story into two volumes was necessary to keep the integrity of the story. Of course, there are some differences between the novel and the manga, however they are minimal and mostly done to keep the graphic novel tasteful as well as ensuring the book flowed properly. The drawings are beautifully done, and draw the reader in as much as the descriptions in the novel do. Most importantly, new readers to this series can fully understand the story without having to read the novels (although I believe they would be missing out if they do, since there is really no substitute to the original). Fans of the Dark Hunter series should be very happy with this manga adaptation. New readers who may be looking for a great new manga series should be very happy with this as well. I am looking forward to Talon's story next since he is one of my favorites.
Great continuation of the manga! March 12, 2010 R. Fernandez Melgar (Lima, Peru) For me, the wait was worth it. When I bought the first manga I really liked the precise way as they adapted the manga. I love to draw and read mangas. I'm addicted to them and Claudia Campos's style is excellent. I admit that I found this volumen much more amazing than the first one. In the second there was more romance, the appearance of new characters like Acheron that is my favorite character in the Dark-Hunters book series. I loved the design of Ash and for me, he's more sexy than I could imagine.
Besides, there were other small details, like the redesign of Nick and Julian, but it doesn't overshadowed the final result.
Well, finally...I have to say that I can't wait for the next manga of Talon's story in September. It's too much time!!
Pure delight April 14, 2010 Claudia E. Gomez Ayala (Tamaulipas, MX) I must say that I never imagine someone could have a good designing skill to picture the central characters as Claudia did. Her imagination combined with the writing skills of Sherrilyn are amazing and the product withdraw is purely heaven. I'm pretty much expecting the next issue.
Love the Darkhunters April 26, 2010 Jane Ann B. Hoskins (Kingston, TN USA) I am a big fan of Sherrilyn Kenyon's Darkhunter series and these manga books are a wonderful addition to the group. I had never read manga before and it took a bit of adjustment to read from the back to the front but I love the illustrations and the condensed story (based on the book). A total thumbs up!
Cant wait for the next one May 7, 2010 Carrie Enriquez i love that they made a DH comic! some of the characters i totally pictured them like they are drawn and some of them...well i would have drawn them differently, but i am glad they changed the way Nick looked from the first vol and the second vol. he did not look cute at all in the first. great story but i wish there was a little more action than all the explanations but i guess you need that for those who have forgotten or are starting fresh on this series. good read!
