Customer Reviews

Jackson delivers in style

I love Melanie Jackson's books because she is dancing to a different drummer. Praise me. If we could pick up a book and KNOW what it's going to be like wouldn't that be very dull? I never guess what her books are going to be, just let them happy and enjoy the creativity. This one is dark, sexy, edgy. And very original.

Wonderfully dark and horrific!!!

This is not your standard romance novel with the standard romance plot. This is a book that is a horrific s/f novel with romantic elements. After reading Harriet's review, you know know a bit about what the story line is. I am going to tell you WHO would like this book. The person that would like this book (and the previous book in this series) is a person who loves to read dark science fiction and horror. A person that likes to read books about people on the run from supernatural beings that have no qualms about killing anyone that gets in their way. A person who reads Ann Rice, Laurell K. Hamilton, and Stephen King. This is NOT a light hearted tramp through the poppies. This is a dark run through the deserts of Mexico with madmen and demons on your tail. After this book, I slept with the lights on for 2 days. Whoa!!! I really loved this book!

wonderful romantic horror thriller

To remain an immortal Ninon must bathe in Saint Elmo's Fire every fifty years. As the semi-century event approaches, Ninon is concerned. If she fails to bathe she will die, but if she goes to Saint Elmo's Fire she knows her enemy Comte de Saint Germain awaits for her there to ambush and kill her. Still she heads to Mexico. Ninon also learns that her deadly adversary plans to release devastating evil on an unsuspecting world. She needs an ally, but has doubts whether to trust the vampire Miguel Stuart, the offspring of a malevolence that his late Scottish father feared, whom she has just met in Mexico. As he battles to control his inner demon craving for blood and she considers how to renew her existence, they begin to fall in love. However, both knows that first they must save a world from Saint Germain's repugnant minion especially his "Xeroxing" machine before they can begin considering a lifetime, in this case eternity, together. DIVINE MADNESS is a wonderful romantic horror thriller with the love subplot for the most part taking a back seat to the supernatural spin as the story line cleverly intertwines the paranormal elements into the mundane world. Ninon and Miguel are a wonderful pair of champions who together might succeed, but apart will die. Though reading the previous tale (see DIVINE FIRE) enhances this novel, fans of dark thrillers will appreciate Melanie Jackson's divine hell on earth book. Harriet Klausner
