So I think I liked this one more than the previous one. But I still don't like Muriel. She's very selfish. EXTREMELY selfish. In the book she literally talks about how selfish she is.She's also kinda dumb. Not necessarily in a too stupid to live sort of way (well occasionally), but in a doesn't-know-who-Lilith is type way and that sort of thing.Her immediate love/hate of her mother was annoying "bitch I hate you, let me literally try to kill you", then 5 seconds later "oh but mommy I love you!"It was annoying.Auric once again I liked.David, the same.the new guy, whose name is escaping me... ehh he really didn't get any character development at all. And where was the wizard friend of Auric and David's? He was literally non existent in this book.Kind of glad this series is over and done, I've found myself enjoying the Welcome to Hell series more so far. (Mostly because it's not all about Muriel.) ★★★★+ "Welcome to Hell, how may we damn you today" - Lucifer's receptionist.Muriel is having a child by both her lovers, it was Muriel's long lost and unknown mother who dropped the bomb. And their baby girl will be born with powers that can destroy Heaven, Hell and everything in between. A fact that makes the child coveted by several enemies of Lucifer. You would think these facts would make Muriel slow down and take care of herself. Well, as usual that is not the case. The princess Of Hell is as stubbornly independent as ever. And who can blame her really, when her punishments are so deliciously sexy;-) But when she yet again finds herself in danger, without her lovers close by, she Is rescued by a mysterious, fanged stranger with a sexy smile, who clearly covets the spot as her third lover.......Which is just what Nefertiti ordered, to strenghten Muriel's magic further. That, and anal sex;-P Oh, my, Nefertiti's castle sounds like a dream for any heterosexual woman. Besides, Auric's jealousy was priceless. A good thing Nefertiti's harem boys were willing to share their techniques with team Muriel. (for future "punishments", of course. *wink, wink*) Someone, give me a fan! I feel like sinning;-)The stage is set for a final confrontation, and mr. tall, dead and fanged turns out to be an excellent tracker. (Lucifer's best.) which is a food thing since the person hellbent on revenge is someone from Lucifer's past that is still pissed at him. I really think he deserved his spot in Muriel's little foursome. (Well, that's hardly a spoiler, now is it?)As usual, the humor was top notch, some of my favorite quotes are listed under "progress". But I do believe the until you cry uncle was my favorite. You know you have done your father proud when you're a princess of Hell and Satan thinks you sin too much. Yay for hellish HEAs.I could have read several more books about Muriel, her men, daughter, grudgingly doting grandfather and long lost mother, but I will just have to wait until Eve publishes her next Welcome to Hell novella. (Since I was stupid enough to read them out of order.) Overall, a really good four star series.
What do You think about Hell's Revenge (2011)?
I'm sort of sad that this is the end of the story. Really enjoyed reading this series. :)
