About this audiobook

HELL HATH NO FURY . . .

For five thousand years, Revenant believed he was alone in the world, a fallen angel beyond any redemption. Now he finds he has a twin brother who had all the light and love Revenant was denied. Caught in a tug of war between Heaven and Hell, he must weigh his thirst for revenge against his desire for a mysterious female named Blaspheme-a female whose very origins could deliver him into salvation . . . or destruction.

LIKE AN ANGEL SCORNED

Blaspheme has a deadly secret: she's the forbidden offspring of an angel and a fallen angel. Hunted by both heavenly and satanic forces, she has survived only by laying low and trusting no one. When Revenant claims he can save them both, how can she possibly believe him? But the powerful angel is persistence incarnate and for Blaspheme, there's no place she can hide in Heaven or Hell where he won't find her . . .

Larissa Ione

Air Force veteran Larissa Ione traded in a career in meteorology to pursue her passion of writing. She has since published dozens of books, hit several bestseller lists, including the New York Times and USA Today, and has been nominated for a RITA award. She now spends her days in pajamas with her computer, strong coffee, and supernatural worlds. She believes in celebrating everything, and would never be caught without a bottle of Champagne chilling in the fridge…just in case. She lives in Wisconsin with her retired U.S. Coast Guard husband, her son, a rescue cat named Vegas, and her very own hellhounds, a King Shepherd named Hexe and a Belgian Malinois named Duvel.

    AWESOME! I can't believe it took me this freaking long to get back to this amazing series and this delectable writing. Ravishing characters, gripping plot, emotional roller coaster. There's not much more a girl can ask for in a book.

    Oh wow! What a great read. In typically Ms Ione fashion, it was filled with tons of humor, action, and sexiness. The difference with this from previous books was the tears got jerked a bit toward the end. I'm really hoping that this isn't the end of a great series, but if it is, Ms Ione has ended it on such a great tip.Rev is full of bad boy goodness that makes you want to gobble him up. He's attracted (ridiculously, and very cutely so) to Blas and yet she's hiding something from him. With his past, deception isn't something he looks at too kindly. Toss in Satan's new curiosity for her and his evil offspring bringing on new hell on earth, and the protective instincts fly. Which side of ten world does Rev end on? Well, that'd be a spoiler readers will want to find out themselves.This was a great book, one I couldn't put down, and one I'll want to read again....soon.

    Read/Listened for Fun (Audible/Physical Book)Overall Rating: 4.25Story Rating: 4.00Character Rating: 4.50Audio Rating: 3.50 (not part of the overall rating)First Thought when Finished: Revenant by Larissa Ione made me laugh, cry, and the UPS guy kind of blushed when he picked the wrong time to deliver my mail! I thought it was a perfect end (or is it) to the series!Extra Note: Blas lived up to her smart ass self and is my favorite leading lady in the series. I kind of knew she would be!Audio Thoughts: Narrated By Hillary Huber / Length: 12 hrs Hillary did 3 of the books in this series and I think she does a pretty good job. There were, I think, something like 4 different narrators for the series. Normally that annoys me but to be honest it worked for this series (other than I got attached to some voices by other narrators). Hillary was solid! She wasn't my favorite but overall she delivered.Part of my Read It, Rate It, File It, DONE! Reviews

    I liked the main characters okay, though occasionally I wanted to shake them. Mostly I just don't have strong feelings about it though. It could have been a little shorter, *shrug*. Overall 'fine'.

    4 Stars

    Series note: This is book #6 in Ione’s Lords of Deliverance series. As the plot is a direct continuation of events begun in Reaver it is necessary to read that installment first. In fact, I would recommend beginning with Pleasure Unbound, book #1 in the Demonica series as there is a huge amount of backstory leading up to this book.

    Revenant is a fun read with one of the more surprising endings in the series. Nevertheless, there is a certain lack of characterization as both the heroine and hero are relatively unknown characters in the ongoing storyline.

    Blaspheme has been a minor secondary character up till now and her backstory as a rare and hunted species of angel is provided very haphazardly. Similarly, Revenant makes his first appearance in Reaver and it feels as if the circumstances surrounding his birth and childhood are underdeveloped. That said, Blaspheme and Revenant’s banter makes for entertaining reading and their romance is intense and steamy.

    The true beauty of Demonica and Lords of Deliverance lies in the author's rich and detailed world building. Ione’s knowledge of biblical mythology is exceptional as she skillfully incorporates both angelic and demonic entities within her fictional construct. The plot is also fast paced and action packed as the ultimate battle between the forces of good and evil, Heaven and Hell, reaches its climax. Despite a loose end here and there, the resolution is very satisfying.

    In sum, Ione has confirmed that this is the final book in the Demonica/Lords of Deliverance series, but she is planning a spin-off focusing on the next generation of Seminus and Horsemen offspring - should be good!

    Larissa Ione’s Revenant is a praiseworthy addition to the Lords of Deliverance Series. After five thousand years, fallen angel, Revenant discovers he has a twin brother who was given a life filled with love versus his life of darkness. Blaspheme has a deadly secrete; she is the forbidden offspring of a fallen angel and an angel. Rev plans on saving them both.I love Larissa Ione’s Revenant. The plot was creative and well-developed. I was riveted throughout the entire story. Larissa Ione’s writing style is impeccable. Her descriptions are vivid, notably of the underworld. There were a lot of interesting conflicts throughout the story, especially with Satan. My heart went out to Revenant for having his memory wiped. He was lied to and abused for thousands of years. I enjoyed his relationship with Blaspheme. The ending of the story had me on the edge of my seat. Complimentary copy provided by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

    Review courtesy of Dark Faerie TalesQuick & Dirty: Lucifer is about to be reborn, and as Satan’s righthand man, Revenant is supposed to ensure that it happens successfully. There’s just one problem: Revenant really doesn’t want the birth to occur. This should prove interesting…Opening Sentence: Revenant was one fucked-up fallen angel.The Review:Revenant is still adjusting to the new knowledge that he and Reaver are brothers, one raised in Heaven, the other in Sheoul. To say Revenant is not handling the news well is putting it mildly. What made his mother choose Reaver to go to Heaven, while he had to stay behind, doomed to a childhood of torture? Amidst all this turmoil, he also has to deal with Gethel’s pregnancy. Satan wants him to ensure that the reincarnated Lucifer is born healthy, but Revenant wants nothing more than to end Lucifer’s existence for good. So, he decides to enlist the help of the Underworld General doctor he’s had his eye on for a while.Blaspheme is in trouble. As a vyrm, the offspring of a fallen angel and an angel, she is reviled by both species. She’s spent her life masquerading as a False Angel, but that disguise is fading fast and if she doesn’t figure out a new disguise soon, she’s a dead woman. While she’s stressing about that, she keeps being harrassed by Revenant. While she finds him incredibly attractive, she can’t afford to become involved with someone as dangerous as he is, especially given his views on vyrm. Their attraction is so strong though that the inevitable eventually happens. Now, they are fighting their growing feelings for each other while dealing with an increasingly dangerous situation. Will Revenant be able to get rid of Lucifer? Will Blaspheme be able to find a new identity? And most importantly, what will Revenant’s reaction be when he discovers who Blaspheme really is?All I can say is Larissa Ione is amazing. She is somehow able to take characters who have done horrible acts in previous books and turn them into heroes in their own books without changing who they are as a character. She was able to do this with Harvester in the previous book, and here, she does it again with Revenant. I relished every part of this book. It was full of action, very fast paced, and the sex scenes were hot. The chemistry between Blaspheme and Revenant steams up the pages, and I found myself eager for them to finally get together. Even when problems arise in the relationship, they never felt contrived, as if they were just there to add drama. Everything served to advance the plot. I was so sad to see it end.Really, I only have one complaint, and it’s that this is the last book. I don’t want to say goodbye to these characters and this world. I’ve grown completely attached, and saying goodbye is very hard. As a series ender though, this book is very satisfying. It left me feeling happy and satisfied. All in all, this was an excellent conclusion to the series. I savored every minute of it, and I’m looking forward to going back to book one and starting it all over again!Notable Scene:“What’s your name?”Gethel sank down on the chaise. “Revenant didn’t tell you?” She gave him a look of mild consternation, which he blew off. “I’m Gethel. And you are?”“I’m Blaspheme.” She slowed as she approached the chaise. “Gethel…that sounds familiar.”Crap. This wasn’t going to be good. Revenant helped Gethel ease back on the pillows, not because he gave a crap about her comfort, but because he needed Blas to not feel threatened. And if she realized who Gethel was and who the baby she was carrying would grow up to be…yeah, he needed to play this off as no big deal for a while.“Of course it sounds familiar, you pathetic fool,” Gethel snapped. She glared at Revenant. “You brought me a quack with no understanding of the earth-shattering momentousness of this situation?”Blaspheme dropped the duffel with a thud.“Quack? I’ll have you know that I’ve been working at Underworld General Hospital for over five decades now, and I’ve worked my way up from paramedic to medical doctor in charge of UG’s new London clinic. As far as the rest, I’m sure the earth-shattering momentousness of your pregnancy is important to you, just as it is with every mother, and I’ll treat you and your child with equal care.”“Bitch,” Gethel hissed. “You will treat me-” Revenant clamped his hand around her throat and cut her off cold.“You will speak to Blaspheme with respect,” he growled.“Revenant!” Blaspheme grabbed his wrist and yanked it away. “How about we set some ground rules.” She jammed a finger at Gethel. “You. Call me a bitch again, and you can find a doctor elsewhere. And you-” she stabbed Rev in the chest with the same finger “-try to strangle a pregnant female again, and I’ll take a scalpel to your balls. Got it?”He grinned. Damn, her fire was awesome. Usually False Angels were more timid. He wondered if she’d be less aggressive outside of work. More pliable. Easier to get naked.Gethel jackknifed into a sit. “You still have no idea to whom you’re speaking, do you?”“No,” Blas said, “and I don’t give a hellrat’s ass. I’m here to do a job, so why don’t you quit being a diva and tell me what’s going on with this pregnancy.”Revenant really, really needed to get Blaspheme into bed.FTC Advisory: Hachette/Grand Central Publishing provided me with a copy of Revenant.
