Summary: I really liked this book!
Review: This is one of the few "romance" type books I have read. I really enjoyed it, it kept me interested throughout the story. The characters were pretty likable, but I would have enjoyed more development in that area. The ending was a COMPLETE SURPRISE!! I did not see it coming! I have purchased Montana Sky and Sanctuary for future reading. Being from Maryland, I had heard about Nora Roberts, but had never read her. I think I was missing something, to be honest. I recommend this to anyone wanting a diversion, a little bit scary, with some romantic suspense. A winner! I also recommend the wonderful Barbara Michaels, and Kay Hooper. Kathleen

Summary: NOT A ROMANCE!!
Review: I would actually give this book two different ratings as a horror/suspense a 4. As a romance a 1. This book should NEVER be categorized as a romance. One problem with this book is that I wanted to read a character driven romance and ended up with a Stephen King horror. I also felt that this book ended abruptly, there was no closure. How did the town feel afterward, what happened to the cult worshipers, etc. This book was difficult and disturbing read. I don't recommend that you read it before bedtime. I generally am not that disturbed by what I read, but I definately did not sleep well the night I finished this book. Be warned not your typical Nora Roberts romance. If you are bothered by the occult and graphic violence pass this by.

Summary: Really loved it
Review: This is the ONLY book, to date, that I started to re-read the SECOND I closed the back cover. I really enjoyed it. It was different than anything I'd ever read.

Summary: Not the Typical NR Romance
Review: In reading other reviews, I see that people were disappointed that there was not the degree of romance usually present in most Nora Roberts' books and were upset at the satanism and violence depicted. Well . . . perhaps the title "Divine Evil" should have been the first clue that this was not a "Dance Upon Air" type book. I suppose in the romance genre, this story was a little more violent than is expected, but for a mystery, it was very mild. This was really more in line with NR's Eve Dallas and Roarke mysteries. I liked Cam and Clare, as well as the supporting characters. Although not a typical NR's ending, I liked the twist. I also did not think there was any confusion about Clare and Cam at the end -- you knew they would end up together and they did. Even though this is an earlier work, I also would like to see a sequel with Blair.

Summary: Disappointed
Review: Nora Roberts is a truly gifted writer. What I love about her stories is that they stay so fresh in my mind, even after having read some of them several years ago. I can only pray that I'll be able to forget this one. Unfortunately her gift of description was used to describe in great detail pure evil, Satanism, rituals and enough perversity to give me a nervous stomach to contend with. I have read more Romantic Suspense than I can count, but this book in no way falls under that category in my opinion! It should be in the Occult section. I can't even recommend reading it for the love story because it's so lacking. I would say about ten percent of this book dealt with a great couple that I would have liked to read more about. The last conversation between the hero and the heroin leaves you hanging abominably. And the "twist" at the end was terrible, and ridiculously unbelievable. I can't even believe that I'm saying this about a Roberts book, but I strongly advise skipping this one. It's not worth the sick feeling that I hope soon fades. For great Romantic Suspense I recommend every other Nora Roberts, Susan Anderson, Cherry Adair, Lauren Bach, Jane Graves, Linda Howard, and "To Trust a Stranger" by Karen Robards.

Summary: Good and Bad.
Review: I thought the book was pretty good, but there was so many holes that you kinda wanted to go to the end and re-write it yourself. I HATED the ending. Not typical Nora Roberts.

Summary: It's not bad at all
Review: This book was good....I mean it is a 5 because it's well written and it hold attention...it's not a WOW CANT PUT THIS BOOK DOWN kinda book but it was like: Hmmm wow this is weird let me read to see whta will happen after...ok Im done....that's what it was like. The scenes with the Satanic cult are like any other gruesome scenes in one of her books which adds to the mystery. It's not a big deal like some of the other reviewers said...I think it's a good book. I definetly dont think it's a 3 1\2....Not less than a 4

Summary: Disappointed in this graphic portrayal of satanism
Review: I am a huge Nora Roberts fan and eagerly await each of her books. However, I was extremely disappointed in this book. The love story was secondary to the primary focus on death, graphic violence, senseless murders, and satanic ritual. The characters of Clare and Cam were never fully developed. The purpose of the Ernie character was predictable from the very beginning. I much prefer Nora's "lighter" treatments of witchcraft, as depicted in the Three Sisters Trilogoy. Even the sometimes too realistic Eve Dallas stories pale in comparison to this book. A true disappointment.

Summary: good book should make another because of ending
Review: I really liked this book the charters were great. Clare and Cam were great. I live in a small town and the way the charters in the book were all in eachother bussiness remined me of my town. The ending was a big surprize. I wish she would make another so they catch the real person. Maby make Blair fall in love with someone

Summary: Disturbingly evil!
Review: First of all I want to warn people who have not read DIVINE EVIL to seriously reconsider about reading this. DIVINE EVIL is not your average horror or mystery. It is full of controversies and blasphemies. There's such things as satanism, murder and rape. Although the last two conditions are sort of expected, the way Nora Roberts play this out is very scary. DIVINE EVIL isn't one of those happily ever after type books so if you guys do plan to read this book, beware. The author leaves you hanging and after I just finished this book, I was just surprised because usually Roberts give you a sense of peace and closure but the author doesn't give you this in DIVINE EVIL. I had a hard time reading this book because the scenes were really violent and chilling but it was also very interesting. I wanted to find out how it ends and how the author would end it because this is a very deep issue in society. But the author doesn't really end it in a satisfying way. Besides the closure, the plot and scense were explained graphically and vividly. So much that you can just play it in your head. But I think people who have a faint heart should not read this book because the book is just really evil.
