Dark Matter eLiquid
Enjoy the wonderful flavor of our latest VapeSafe eLiquid - Dark Matter.
Dark Matter tastes like German chocolate cake. For those of you who have not had the fortunate to try a piece German chocolate cake recently, this is a great way to experience the flavor without getting any of the calories. German chocolate cake is a layered cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Traditionally sweet baking chocolate is used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake. The robust filling and topping is a caramel made with egg yolks and evaporated milk. Once the caramel is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred into the mixture. Finally, rich chocolate frosting is spread around the sides of the cake to hold in the filling.
Dark Matter eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of German chocolate cake. Dark Matter eLiquid delivers plumes of vapor and rich chocolatey flavor that you'll want to enjoy again and again. Try Dark Matter today!

Description
In Sin City, a little girl suffers from a strange and terrible malady. If she dies, the Light will die along with her.
Warrior, avenger, Joanna Archer has survived countless otherworldly terrors—and has found her rightful place among the agents battling the all-pervasive evil of Shadow . . . even as she struggles against the darkness within herself.
A war is raging for Las Vegas—a city without a heart—one that catapults Joanna into a new world hidden from mortal sight. In this lethally seductive alternate dimension the lines blur between good and evil, love and hate, and here lies the last hope for the Light. But Joanna's price of admission is a piece of her own soul—and the odds of her escaping are slim . . . to none.

Summary: "Zodiac Series: An end to the beginning"
This entry in the series is an entertaining tale filled with superhero fights, sex, and mega-revelations. A few loose ends from earlier in the series are tied up, killed, or otherwise rendered obsolete through the plot of this book, while a few new ones appear. I enjoyed this book immensely, and will be going out to buy the 5th book later today.
I am concerned that Vikki Pettersson may be taking her main character down the increasingly poorly written soap-opera world of Rachel Caine's weather warden, who shares a certain first name with our favorite Archer.

Summary: "Ok, but...."
While I've liked the first few books in the series, I'll admit... the charm has begun to wane for me. The general idea of the series has been done before, but it had been a while since I'd seen anyone do it with a zodiac spin to it. Unfortunately this book has killed off a lot of the series' charm for me.
As you know, Joanna has caused her changeling harm that can't be healed in the last book. This means no more Manuals of Light for the good guys, which means that the Agents of Light are at a *serious* disadvantage. Joanna has to figure out a way to fix her changeling & restore the balance... but unfortunately some nasty changes are about to happen.
I don't mind a bit of "kick the character around", but that seemed to be all this book was really about. Joanna reverts back to her old form of being standoffish & distant from the other characters, which was a bit frustrating for me. Plus as others have said, Joanna keeps forgetting that she has to act like Olivia, which wouldn't be an irritating thing if the author had addressed that. (Maybe people will finally start asking questions in the next book?)
The bottom line is that while I'm willing to give this series another chance with the next book, I'm just irritated that Joanna's character hasn't grown any. Maybe the events at the end of this book will change that, maybe they won't. I'm not asking her to turn into someone completely different, but a little growing would be nice.
If you've followed the series this far, you might want to check this out from the library before plunking money down on a purchase. If you haven't read the series at all, don't start here. You won't know what is going on.

Summary: "Reading this book is like witnessing a train wreck"
Let me start out by saying that I am generally not happy with books that make me sad and this book made me sad and angry. That being said, it also made me laugh a lot. I feel sad and angry about what happened to J/O and I think a lot of that stems from how everyone on the super side treats her. One would expect the bads to want to do her harm, but it seems like the people who were supposed to have her back didn't. Most of what happened to J/O could have been avoided had Warren been more upfront about things. And how many more times is J/O going to get kicked out of the troop before she finally just goes off on her own? Honestly, I think that Warren feels that once J/O comes into her full potential, she'll try to make a play for leadership. I also think that before book 4, his worries were unfounded.
I'm also upset because as a general rule, I want my super powered people to become more powerful, not less. And VP has been snatching power from J/O since book 2.
After all that, I am still anxiously awaiting book 5 to see how VP is going to dig J/O out of the hole she put her in.
Quite frankly, book 3 and 4 gave me the feeling of Sir Aurther Connen Doyle, in that he kept upping his price on the Sherlock Holmes stories because he didn't want to have to write them anymore. Though I hope I'm wrong about this.
If you asked me, would I recommend this series (which this is afterall for), I would say that as aggrivating as the story is at times, it is definately worth the read.

Summary: "WOW!! You'll absolutely LOVE this book!"
Let me just first start off by saying, "WOW"!!! I've never read a series before where I felt like screaming, crying, and pissed off all at the same time. One moment, I would be laughing and then the next, I would be screaming and cursing. If you've read any of the previous books, you'll know what I mean. At one point, I felt like throwing the book across the room and stomping on it. Especially the third book towards the end. I mean, if you don't consider that great writing than I don't know what is. The great thing about this book is the roller coaster Vicki Pettersson takes you on. The fact that you never know what the author is going to throw at you next is thrilling. You think you know what's going to happen or where the story will eventually lead to, but Vicki suprises you each time. She definitely knows how to hit the spot. I have to admit, after finishing the first book, I was a little hesitant about continuing with the series. I've never read a book before that left me feeling so distressed... and I mean that literally. But I have to say, I'm so glad I did and her latest installment "City of Souls" was by far the best to date. You see throughout the books how much Joanna/Olivia has really grown as a person which I thought was really important for her character. In the beginning, JOlivia may have seemed a little bit selfish - afterall, who isn't selfish when it comes to their own life right? But by the end of book 4, she really starts to see things in a different light.
The fact that this book actually had me bawling at the end says a lot. I definitely agree that this is a much darker urban fantasy but one that you'll beyond doubt enjoy. I can't wait until the fifth installment comes out!!
