Rating:  Summary: I Cheered For The Vampires Review: An excellent vampire story. Very creative and powerful characters. Linda Lael Miller did such a good job in describing her characters that I felt like I knew them so well. I loved Dathan's character with all his arrogance and sex appeal. Dimity was another character that I fell in love with and would like to get to know better. I would love to see Mrs. Miller come out with a book about that female vampire. Oooo, what a story that could be! My only disappointment with the book was the love story line between Maeve; the main character and a female vampire and Calder; a mortal man. I found Calder's character to be weak and quite boring actually. The love story really got in the way of the exciting vampire story line. I noticed myself skimming quickly over the love story parts involving Calder and Maeve just so that I could get back into the great vampire stuff. I must admit though; I LOVED the vampire sex passages...very erotic! This is a definite must read for all ! vampire fans.
Rating:  Summary: Don't waste your time. Review: Friends of Ms. Miller must be writing these reviews because I found nothing to enjoy about this book. I was looking in particular for a good vampire book and could not believe that this level of writing was considered excellent by all of you. I'm beginning to think we need some other way to catagorize this type of writing. I for one did not find the plot enthralling or even interesting because the writing level was too elementary. She gets 2 stars for getting published. That was truly an accomplishment. Sorry, just being honest to those who really want to know.
Rating:  Summary: Capturing your heart and soul, you feel one with the story. Review: From the very first page, you are drawn into the story. Ms Millers writing had me completely connected with the characters, feeling their love, their loss, their pain and their glory. Having a very old print copy of Dracula by Bram Stoker did not make me want to read this, the back cover drew me in and the story held me completely. Devouring it in less than 5 hours, to the blissful discovery for Maeve and Calder left me overjoyed, but is also left a sadness within when I came to the end. I wanted to read on and on. It was nearly a year later that I discovered the first book and the final two. Or is there more to come? Shery Christopher (souldancer@worldnet.att.net
Rating:  Summary: What is everyone thinking? Review: I can't believe the amazing reviews this book is getting here. I just looked it up on Amazon because a friend of mine wanted to know what the worst romance I ever read was. I read this when I was fifteen, and I didn't exactly have high standards.
This book was AWFUL. The vampire is silly and angsty (to be fair, I'm not fond of the Anne Rice vampire angst, either), and the romance is lame. The whole plot is improbable, and I like weird fantasy/magic/etc. books.
Rating:  Summary: I love this series!!! Review: I feel that this book and it's matches are the best in the world. I have read all 4 of them. I think that I could read her all day. She takes the "unreal" and makes it so real that you belive it.
Rating:  Summary: Much better than the first... Review: I really enjoyed the mythos created in FOR ALL ETERNITY. Thank goodness Valerian is back! Cheers. Maeve is an awesome character, the romance with Calder and his history was interesting, especially set in the Civil War, but the battle with Lisette and the consequences of the outcome.... WOW. Cool vampire romance. I still favor the Christine Feehan "Dark" series, but I will definitely be reading the next two L.L.Miller vamp novels! I also enjoyed the combined PB issue, SPRINGWATER SEASONS by L.L.Miller.
Rating:  Summary: Total Disappointment Review: I'm sorry. After reading Forever and the Night I was looking forward to reading For All Eternity. I really did try, but I couldn't get into it. There was nothing there to keep me interested. I thought the vampire story had some promise, but Calder and Maeve's relationship with him irritated me to the point I put the book down halfway through. No, this one is definitely going in the book exchange pile.
Rating:  Summary: Forget the love plot!!! The vampire story was the best...... Review: Miller can really write a thought provoking vampire story. I almost wish she didn't clog it up with the love-story side of it. I was more interested in the Vampires than i was in the happily-ever-after.(and i'm a romance fanatic!!) But over-all i have to rate this book a five. I'll re-read it again as soon as i get it back from my sister!!
Rating:  Summary: The book was fantastic. Review: The book was moving and powerful from beginning to end . Miller style is unique within all her novels and I have read all of her novels that I can get my hands on. For All Eternity was the one however that got me started in the first place. The protrayal of all the vampires throughout the books makes us step back and review our perceptions of the supposed creatures of the night whom all through history has been protrayed as evil but through Miller's books we see a different side, a romantic, protective and humane side . The book was just beautiful along with the sequal to it
Rating:  Summary: Much better than the first... Review: This is the best vampire book ever! The love story that develops between Maeve and Calder pales in contrast to the gripping scope of the deadly struggle between the forces of good and evil. I especially liked the scenes between Nemesis & Maeve--two very strong-willed characters. Ms. Miller has a beautiful way with words and a great imagination!
