Hi everybody, i'm new here. I speak french and if i understand english very well, my speaking and writing is not very good ! So, sorry if i make mistake... I loved this book very much, but about Hunter, i'm i the only one who think : I think the power of taking soul is not the power of Midheaven, but the power of Solange.
Perhaps in the past Solange had taken parts of Hunter Soul and this why he want to go to Midheaven. To take his soul back and perhaps, for vengence.
When they were to Midheaver ( Jo and Hunter/Jaden). He said that he was there for love... Love for who, Solange or Joana... Because if it is not for joana, why he would have go there at the same time of her if it was not for trying to help her get back her Soul ?
When they had sex at the warehouse, at first he does not want, he said not now ( or something like that). Why say not now if he want to go back to Solange. Perhaps he wanted to wait later, after he put is thing together...
He tell Jo how to open the Warehouse, perhaps he let something there for her to see...
And then, he's got framed by Warren, and nobody let him explained anything.
Perhaps i'm completely offtrack, or have too moch hope, but well it's how i feel.

I think Hunter is going to Midheaven for love, but not for Sola... I assume it has something to do with Lola (isnt that his daugthers name that Jo learns about through the soul meshing thingamabob?) If thats the case I can forgive him for just about anything.
But I think I disagree with Miki, I think he would be doing it whether or not Jo had pushed him away. I think Jo pushing him away at first just made him more desperate... he was looking well before that I thought.
Kay - I feel you tho... this book HURT. Best writing of the series, best story, but it hurt like hell.

Welcome Nefertari!
Ugh Hunter's reasons for going there just give me a headache. Maybe he went for Solange (ugh, hate her on principle), and her love. Maybe he went for Lola. Maybe he went to keep Jo safe from Solange. Maybe he had to go back there at the end to hold up his end of a bargain struck with Solange to save/help Jo, get Lola back, to cut/renew his ties with his wife, get some powers back...
The possibilities are endless. But y'all know that my HEA heart desperatly hopes he went there for Jo and his love for her, not the Psycho Soul Sucker. Guess we'll find out in 365days *whimpers*.

You're right patchyamama, perhaps he's done that for her daughter... but the description of unbound ( the upcoming anthology featuring Hunter) said : while Vicki Pettersson returns to Sin City and the war between Light and Shadow, and one man's fight for his soul

Hi, I'm just joined, so forgive me if I missed somthing previously discussed, but I have a question that I didn't notice in the earler topics. How do you guys know there will be a fifth book and just how many books are we looking at here? I mean I would be thrilled it there were 12 books, but the last one seemed kinda final in a way to me which is why I've been searching the posts for a mention of this, so seriously, is there really going to be another one and will it star Jo or not?

Hey Mystra! Yeah there will be a fifth book, and a sixth for sure...If you go on under the Ask Vicki heading, you'll see a bunch of question we asked Vicki about future books. The fifth book is called Cheat the Grave.

HI mystra!!! ...Don't for get to say hi in the introduce yourself thread! l* and I realised in all my emo *sobs...sniffle* I for got to say I love this book! LOVE it! it is without a doubt the best in the series it is soooo finely crafted - there is no question that for me this is one of those that is going to resonate with me.... and why because it drew out such emotion in me... and Vicki that is a true gift..... even if that emotion was abject sobbing and rage loooool! I heart ya .....
Now though Midheaven was interesting... more interesting for me was the change in Jo I mean through each book - you see her at first coping with her rage and grief, her dealing with need for revenge and vengence, her blossoming lust and i dare say love for Hunter .... *sob* but in this book I felt that she had really come into her own skin - that she felt/was acting more "comfortable" since she became the Archer... so I liked this...well not new Jo but can we say slightly more "in control" Jo... I can'twait to see how further she grows!

And I totally agree. After losing Ben *sob*, now that happens to the man she thought she could trust and love.

Welcome Nefertari, Bennyman and Mystra! Good to meetcha. You're right patchyamama, perhaps he's done that for her daughter... but the description of unbound ( the upcoming anthology featuring Hunter) said : while Vicki Pettersson returns to Sin City and the war between Light and Shadow, and one man's fight for his soulRemember, she said the short isn't about Hunter, it's about someone else. But it will explain everything. OMFG, you guys gotta get UNBOUND and read Vicki's short, "Dark Matters." It will answer so many questions that have been raised here. It's another emotional one though. Shit! And you don't have to wait a year! Just a couple months. And the Kim short featuring Jenks is cute too. ;D
