Night Pleasure is a pleasure to read, as liexo says :)
Also, liexo i am talking about the whole dark hunter universe, it have 3 series were- hunter dark hunter and night hunter ( i guess)

I know there are dark hunters and dream hunters, but I thought it was one big family. I stopped reading them at number ten as in France the titles were all mixed up. And then I discovered more books like BDB, M/M and such...  :P

If she says dark hunter series, then i would say run it's more than 25 books.
I have only read 3 books in chronicles of nick and they were wicked too.
I would say read Chronicles of nick or Get ready to go through 25+ books of Dark Hunter (maybe you'll even forget how many character these books have):)

I'm reading them right now. It's 25+ if you count wit the short stories. I wasn't THAT satisfied with the first book, though  :o BUT one question I have to ask. We CAN read for example book 2 and then jump to well say 15, right?? Because I SO wanna read Acherons book  ;D

Yep !
But since she adding new characters in almost every book, you might not understand if you don't read them in order. She's building quite the community...

The first book was different from the others, you'll like the second one better.

I stopped at 11, I think, but the french editor got them all mixed up after that.
They already did the same with J.D. Robb (Nora Roberts) and her In Death series : I bought them all and I was at number 31, looking for 32 and realize than in fact that was number 38 in english ! And since the books are in chronological order to follow the life of the characters....

Well, so I stopped. I need to get them again but in english, so I'll get the right order. It's sooooooo frustrating !  :mad:

Yeah, I can see why. I actually mixed them from the start. After the first book I started reading Dragonswan which is not the second book. I was so confused  :o I righted it but damn, I know why you'd be frustrated. I don't know if I can find this series in my own laguage but I wouldn't even try. The translaters suck so I never try that because the original feels so different than the translated one.

I agree. If I can read in english, I prefer.
Luckly, here in France I can go to any library and order books in english, they're the normal price, no extras. Which is great ! But mostly I read in french, because french books are the cheapest I ever found. Cheaper than UK, USA, Canada, Switzerland, Ireland?Austria and Italy, at least  For the others, I didn't check !  :P
So depending on my budget, I read in French or in English...

Wait, if you order it in the libraries shouldn't it be free?? If I order from our libraries I get them for free but they usually don't have the books I read so I don't bother. Well, it's probably cheaper than norway too since we only have the most famous books here. Because obviously everyone reads them. Like Fifty shades of grey. That book is EVERYWHERE!! And I don't like it  :(

hahaha, well you got me confused  :P I was seriously wondering why you had to pay in a library  :o Don't try your language on me, Liexo. It's one I never understood and probably never will... :( and it's such a beautiful language  :(
