This book is unlike anything I have ever read that kept me entertain it was like I was watching a movie. Now Merrick is a bad guy but not really a bad guy and that bad side of him was like a turn on for me personally this book/ paranormal was different I liked it and wanted to read more.Very Different

Another hot paranormal from Ms. Pillow!!

Lady Juliana of Bellemare longs for adventure. She has been betrothed to her neighbour and fears she must spend the rest of her live near her family. She longs for and wishes for other realms, other places. She should be careful for what she wishes. Merrick, the dark elfin king of Valdis has watched her for a long time. Unable to go to her, he entices her to his realm. Her fiancé is murdered, the children of Bellemare are kidnapped, and Merrick gives her a choice, come to him until he tires of her or die. Neither expect the passion and love that grows between them, and with all the intrigue and meddling from King Lucien of the Damned it looks like Merrick may lose his kingdom and the woman he has come to love. This reviewer just loves a hot fantasy, and Ms Pillow has penned such a rich world with multi-dimensional characters that leap off the pages. The plot held this reviewer spellbound and kept her reading right until the end. This reviewer would class this story more of a dark, erotic fantasy. Ms Pillow's hero is more of a bad guy, and to watch him fall in love was a joy to see. To see the changes he goes through, coming from the dark and more into the light was very well done. The love scenes were hot and passionate, the dialogue great, the secondary characters worthy of their own books. This reviewer is looking forward to reading more of this new world Ms Pillow has conjured up for her fans...and her fans will love it for sure.

King Of The Unblessed Review

From The First Sentence Of This Book I Was Hooked. This Book Was Amazing From The Characters Right Down To The Immortal Realm Michelle M. Pillow Has Created. I Thought These Characters Were Believable And I Felt There Angst. Michelle Is A Brillant Story Teller And This Book Only Exemplifies This. If You Love Faeries, Other Worldly Creatures, Great Characters, And An Amazing Story This Book Is For You.

This book has it all... a must read!

Once more into the Realm Immortal. This time with the King of the Unblessed and his goblins, trolls, dark fairies and berserkers. King Merrick was once the king of the Blessed but circumstances have forced him to switch realms and now his brother Ean rules the Blessed. Merrick is fascinated by the mortal Lady Julianna of Bellemare and when he hears her wish for adventure he tricks her into coming to the immortal world. He does not care it is the night before her wedding, in fact he swears the ceremony will not take place. Julianna tries to find the Black Palace to plead with the King of the Unblessed. She does not realize the king is Merrick. Her brothers are horrified by her disappearance and follow her into the immortal realm. They bring with them the sad news that her betrothed has been murdered. Julianna is reunited with her brothers and they take refuge with the Faeries. Queen Tanya of the Faeries sends the lady of Bellemare to Merrick and Julianna must choose the path for her future. Her growing attraction for him is darkened by her conviction that he murdered her future husband. In the background King Lucien of the Damned is twisting events to get his own way, while King Ean is trying to understand why his brother seems intent on going to war with him. I have to admit I read the three books of Realm Immortal the wrong way round. King of the Unblessed is the first one in the series although I've read it last. This did not spoil the story for me at all. Ms Pillow has built a fantastic world and peopled it with characters from childhood stories but put an adult twist on them. What are the Unblessed? The Blessed are obviously the excruciatingly good, while the Damned are the rotten to the core. The Unblessed are those creatures who create the necessary evil you must have to appreciate the good. Merrick still reminds me of David Bowie in Labyrinth. It's obvious from the beginning that he truly loves Julianna but will not tell her what she wants to hear. The Black Palace sheds its shadow over everything, causing misunderstandings which threaten to destroy the balance of power. This book has it all. Betrayal, lust, love, evil, goodness and adventure. Once again Ms Pillow has written a novel that must be read. I hope she sees her way to writing more of this series. Although all the books are complete stories I could see the possibility for at least two more novels to be written about the Realm Immortal. www.longandshortreviews.com

Must Read!!

In the Realm Immortal, nothing is at it seems. Fate is often cruel, and just when you think it has blessed you, you are damned. This is as it seems to Merrick, elfin King of Valdis. Merrick grew up as heir to the throne of Tegwen, the land of the blessed. As Prince of Tegwen, Merrick had been surrounded by joy and happiness. Now, as king of all the unblessed, Merrick experiences neither. Neither entirely good, nor entirely evil, Merrick is bound to both the King of the Blessed and the King of the Damned. In his world, kings are slaughtered the minute they show any sign of weakness. Though his life is not blessed, Merrick has no desire to die. Therefore, he must find a way to rid himself of his one weakness: his obsession for a mortal woman. Lady Juliana of Bellemare dreams of a world different from her own. Her heart desires an adventure. Her mind rebels against her upcoming nuptials, even as she knows she will do her duty as is expected of her. On the eve of her wedding, Lady Juliana, holding on to the one last thread of her innocence, freedom, and imagination, calls on the non-existent knight of her dreams to take her on an adventure. Allowing her fanciful whims to take control, she whispers aloud details of her desired journey in a deserted garden beneath the moonlight. She vows to give him her soul in exchange for the adventure. Will Merrick, King of the Unblessed, take her on her word and steal her soul from her after a magnificent adventure? Can there be happiness for the unblessed? Or will they succumb to the wills of the King of the Damned? Ever watch a video or concert and feel the singer is singing to you? The same phenomenon happens, very rarely, when reading fiction. It is not often a writer possesses the ability to give the narrator such voice, such presence, that the words float off the page and whisper through the reader's mind, as if the narrator is speaking directly to the reader. This has only happened to me with one other author... until now. Michelle M. Pillow's vivid storytelling, unique characters, and action-packed adventures make Realm Immortal: King of the Unblessed a must-read for all readers of fantasy! Ms. Pillow's fantasies will definitely be on my auto-buy list after this steamy romance. Trista Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed
