For more than three decades Roberts has published more than 200 titles in the romantic novel category. She wrote her first story during the blizzard of 1979, when she was snowed in at her home. The first novel, Irish Thoroughbred, was published just two years later. Then, the next two years brought 23 more published novels, and she finally caught the public's eye in 1985. That last novel, "Playing the Odds" gave Roberts a "fan favorite" status and transformed the romance novel category.

The story itself was very good. However, I found the narration difficult to listen to. The narrator had difficulty with female voices. They tended to sound extremely whiny. I ended up taking the rest of the trilogy out in hard copy to read and found that much better.

This is the amazing story of six people coming together in order to save their respective worlds. This first installment is the love story between Hoyt and Glenna, but it's so much more. Here, you learn what the mission is to save the worlds. You meet Morrigan, who's entrusted Hoyt, a great sorcerer, to gather his group of six, including his brother Cian, a vampire, who has to help to destroy Lillith the Queen of the Vampires. You don't want to put this book down once you get started. I recommend this book 100 times over.

I've read the Circle Trilogy twice and I am sure, will read it again and again. The characters are well developed and you get introduced to the lovers when their part of the trilogy is most important. The well grounded love of Hoyt and Glenna is the perfect love to start the trilogy with.

I think this book and the whole trilogy are some of Roberts best. There is nothing really trite about these. The characters are very fleshed out. If you enjoy supernatural thrillers/romances you will like this one.

Goodreads review by Jamieson on February 05, 2009

There is an evil that hunts during the night. An evil so terrible that it would feast upon the flesh of humans. There are stories of these beasts, these demons; they are called the Vampyre. Hungry for flesh and the blood in our veins. Lilith, the darkest vampyre of them all, is preparing for war. An......more

Goodreads review by Omaira on February 23, 2019

"Una historia que va mejorando a medida que avanza, aunque nunca llega a resultar fascinante. La parte de romance es simple y apresurada, no logró hacerme sentir prácticamente nada. Lo mejor del libro se da después de la mitad, momento en el cual aumenta la acción y ocurren algunas cosas ligeramente......more

Goodreads review by Cristina on December 18, 2023

La historia me ha enganchado, osea para mi se ha leído fácil. Pero como historia de amor me parece muy floja, no sé tengo la sensación de que no sé en qué momento se han enamorado y me suele pasar bastante con los libros de Nora me encanta como describe todo en sus libros, pero eso, tengo la sensaci......more
