The backwardness of that country's well known. The bullet pierced his arm.

I've crossed the Atlantic several times. A truck stopped crosswise in the middle of the road. He doesn't dare to tell me. What a horrible thing! An automobile ran over him. If you want to do a good job, don't rush through it. We can't tolerate such an outrage. Three pedestrians were victims of an accident.

So much noise rattles me. He was stunned and didn't know what to answer. We can still get there on time. Even now it wouldn't be possible. He hasn't come yet. Even if he doesn't come we'll have to begin. Though I wasn't born in the country, I know it very well. He left the class because he was feeling sick. Is there enough room in the car for everybody? Which is cheaper, the bus or the street car? He couldn't maintain his authority.

They reported it to the authorities. The car moved very slowly. We're not making any progress in our work. The floods ruined the crops. He agreed to what they said. He's a very promising young man. He gets ahead of everybody in his work. He shamed his whole family by his conduct.

After he said it, he was ashamed. The mechanic repaired the damage without delay. The shipment was damaged by the rain. We have to notify the police. I'm warning you for the last time. They revived the fire by putting on more wood. Why don't you keep your eyes open? Step lively; it's very late. Wake up; you're half asleep. I want to help him carry the packages.

Don't smoke on an empty stomach. Let's take that chance. He likes games of chance. He chose them at random. This would embarrass anyone. When I told him that he was very much embarrassed. The enemy suffered many casualties. There was a general fall in prices. He dropped out of the club.

For lack of payment they dropped him from the subscription list. Let's go down the stairs slowly. Bring the suitcase down from my room. Will you help me take the suitcases down from the rack? They saw us as they were getting off the train. He bent over to tie his shoe.

I want a low table. He's shorter than his brother. They were speaking in a low voice. Let's put the basses on the left. The temperature's fallen below zero. The superintendent lives on the ground floor. What's my bank balance this month? Don't rock in the chair; it's going to break.

Three shots were heard. He had three bullet wounds in his chest. They're giving tickets free. He tried to get her on the phone without success. Can I cash my check in this bank? All the benches are taken. The skirt had three red bands. He wore a red sash across his chest. That band gives me a headache. A gang of thieves works these parts. Please bathe the children. I'm going to take a bath. It's very pretty and besides it's cheap.

They sell things very cheap in this store. There's a sale today in that department store. He eats too much. What he did was an outrage. I like her an awful lot. How many times have you made the trip by boat? We need an iron bar. The spectators cheered the players on. He dicho que te calles.

I told you to shut up! Do you have enough money? She's a rather pretty woman. There wasn't enough food for all. The suit's made of very rough material. Please beat the eggs. He defeated his enemy. They haven't unpacked their trunks yet. He doesn't appreciate favors. The profits were very high. He doesn't know the difference between good and evil.

He spoke very well. The beer's very cold. He has a great deal of property. He's rich rather than poor. All right or Correct. Pay close attention to what I tell you. Have you bought the tickets? Give me the money in fives and tens. You have to put a screen in front of the door. I wish I'd bought a white dress! There are white people, Indians, and Negroes in this city. They hit the target. Leave this sheet blank. They hit the mark three times. The soldiers had target practice in the morning. He didn't open his mouth all afternoon.

The subway entrance is on the corner. The child's sleeping on his stomach. He was lying on his back on the beach. What an embarrassing situation that was! What sultry weather we're having! What a shameful action! Blow the horn so that car'll let us pass. I'm out of breath. Give me that iron ball. We bought some tennis balls. There was a crowd of people at the entrance of the theater. She carried a silk purse. I need a paper bag to put it in. I don't know what the quotations are on the exchange today. They used a pump to take out the water.

The bomb destroyed three houses. It struck like a bombshell! Where is there a filling station? Se puso una bomba. He got drunk [ Am ]. Three bulbs have burned out. Thank you for your kindness. Please wait a moment. He was lying on the bed. Be careful, don't throw away those papers. Look how that ball bounces. I want a can of tomatoes. When he heard it he jumped. The theater was jammed. Be careful, it's a fierce bull. He got very mad. I don't like this paper; it's too shiny. He gave her a diamond bracelet. Let's drink to your health! I said it as a joke.

He takes everything lightly. He's abrupt in his way of speaking. That's a very good car. It was a good opportunity. I'm not feeling very well. Bueno, nos veremos a las cinco. All right, we'll meet at five. He gave it to me willingly. They made a terrible racket. He went out with a bundle of clothes in his hand. He has a swelling on his head. As soon as he saw what he had to do, he ducked out. They were making fun of him. Put these letters in the mail box. He's a perfect gentleman. Here's your bill, sir. She wears her hair loose.

Nothing else will fit in the trunk. The piano won't go through that door. There's no doubt that he's English. That child has a very large head. He was the leader of the movement. You have to use your brains in this work. He plunged into the water head first. Business is in a mess. He never loses his head.

Ese proyecto no tiene pies ni cabeza. There's no rhyme or reason to that plan. From end to end. We can't leave any loose ends. They passed the Cape of Good Hope. He has corporal's stripes. They put an end to the conversation. I know the story from beginning to end. They carried out the plan right away.

Take this junk out of here. Every day he says something different.

Every one paid for his own meal. He asks me for it every time he sees me. A heavy rain fell. He dropped to his knees. The suit's becoming to him. His birthday falls on Sunday. He was taken sick a few days ago. I didn't realize it until much later. She fell down the stairs.

Be careful, don't drop the tray. He was lame after the fall. The opposition of the House caused the fall of the government. He gave her a box. He put a lot of money in the savings bank. They keep their jewelry in the safe. Look and see how much the cash register rings up. We have to see how much cash we have on hand. I'm going to buy a pack of cigarettes.

Dark Side of the Moon

They've lost the key to the drawer. They received a box of books. She turned him down. They flunked him in geometry. He got a cramp while he was swimming. The dagger penetrated to his heart. I got home drenched. He pulled his hat down to his eyes. Let's figure out the cost of the trip.

Please heat the water. They warmed themselves in the sun. He's had a fever for the past few days. Is this good material? Be careful, the soup's very hot. Why are you so quiet? He kept quiet while we were talking. He kept the truth from us. You're talking too much. Se callaron de repente. All of a sudden they stopped talking. What street do you live on? I had no choice but to throw him out. When his business failed he was left penniless. We're in a blind alley. There was a calm after the storm. He takes his time when he works. These pills will ease the pain. He didn't calm down until much later.

I don't like the heat. It's very warm today. Everything he's saying is slander. What size shoe do you wear? I'm going to chock the wheels so the car won't move. Please make my bed. He's been confined to bed for the past three months. What kind of a camera do you have? They were talking together like old pals. The maid hasn't made up the room yet. Ask the waitress for the menu. I want to reserve a first-class stateroom. He hasn't changed a bit since I saw him. Can you change a ten-peso bill for me?

Has there been any change in policy? Do you have any change? What's the rate of exchange on the dollar today? I'll give you this book in exchange for the other one. He's very fond of walking. You have to move cautiously in this matter. Is the road all right to drive on? I don't know how to go about getting it. They started out the following day. He was in his shirt sleeves. The soldiers will soon return to camp. I didn't hear how many times the clock struck.

We lived in the country for many years. She found her first gray hair. She has a lot of gray hair. We passed through the Panama Canal. The boat was approaching the English Channel. They brought us a basket of fruit. There are tennis courts in this park. What's the latest song hit? Give me a light for my cigarette. They decided to exchange prisoners.

This man's very tiresome. It's a very tiring job. She gets tired quickly. He's always harping on the same string. I want to learn that song. The tenor sang very well tonight. I'll have to tell it to him straight from the shoulder. How much do I owe you? He's a singing teacher. I like folk songs. Stand the book on edge. A lot of sugar cane is grown in Cuba.

He carried a cane. They have to fix the water pipe; it's clogged. He bought a double-barreled shotgun. Have you seen the Grand Canyon? He wears a Spanish cape. The door needs another coat of paint. Poor people, they're on the downgrade! This tank has a capacity of thirty liters. He's a very capable business man. I'd like to talk to the foreman. It's a room large enough for a library. He's not capable of such a low trick. I've been told that he's a very competent person. The company has a capital of a million dollars.

They took a trip to the capital. I've read only the first three chapters. Don't pay any attention to her whims. She has a very pretty face. I don't understand the words on the face of the coin. He told him right to his face. He had to face the music. He's a man of very good character. Everything she does shows she has character. You have to put more coal in the stove.

They were splitting their sides. He doesn't have enough money to travel. This mule can't carry a heavier load. It's a cargo ship. They're taking the freight out of the car. They loaded the truck. The battery has to be charged. The cavalry charged the enemy. I'm charging this amount to your bill. He was very affectionate with his parents. My best regards to your family. I usually eat meat once a day.

This cold weather gives me goose flesh. Do you want beef or pork? I need a leather briefcase. The correspondence is kept in several files. I like horse races. They live on Third Avenue. He's preparing for a diplomatic career. He wrote it hurriedly. He sprinted to catch up to them. The highways in this country are excellent. There was a mule cart on the road.

We're going home by car. I'm going to mail this letter. He received a registered letter. Let's play cards a while. She was carrying a large leather bag under her arm. He took his wallet out of his pocket. Will that briefcase hold many books? What time does the mailman come?

Besides his really tragic backstory, which I will put under this spoiler tag, view spoiler [ He was mated to a human female, Isabeau. After finding out what he was, she tells her family. The humans come and slaughter every woman and child in Ravyn's clan.

Ravyn is blamed and his own brother Phoenix murders Ravyn, whose father Gareth spits on Ravyn and kicks his dying body. Ravyn's call for vengeance is heard by Artemis, who comes down to grant him vengeance and make him a Dark-Hunter. He slaughters Isabeau and her family and all the humans in the village. His family has never forgiven him and still shun him. When he is trapped in his cat-body, he's put in a metriazo collar to suppress his powers and is taken to the animal shelter to be put down.

Sue is called to take him by her friend Angie. Angie's detective husband Jimmy is on to some sort of Daimon conspiracy, which he tries to warn Sue about. Sue takes the cat home against her better judgment. She is violently allergic to cats. After taking off the cat's collar, she is surprised when he becomes a handsome, naked human man.

Great set-up, this is a great set-up. I was like "Oh, boy, let the fun adventures ensue! Here are the problems: Kenyon seems to be writing this novel as a entrypoint for new readers. And I do mean excruciating. If you read the last 14 books as I did you can safely skip just about every third page in this novel. Just skip any paragraphs where some character launches into an explanation of something that has already been explained to you 1, times in the course of the series.

This book is painful for Kenyon fans who already know her world and her mythos. She uses Susan as the "newbie" to take the place of the new reader and has everyone explain everything to Susan the reader as if she knew nothing. Susan is allergic to cats. I realize that this is Kenyon trying to be cute and funny, but I didn't find this cute or funny. Ravyn makes Susan's head clog up badly, she is constantly sneezing and sniffling around him, and touching any hair of his makes her skin itch like crazy.

And this is the man she's having sex with. I was cringing, this sounded so unpleasant and horrible. At one point she gives him a blowjob and I was just wincing in sympathy. The idea of doing something like that while having your nose stuffed up and runny, and also having to take breaks to sneeze uncontrollably sounds like a nightmare to me.

What a piece of shit! Kenyon totally plays the fact that Susan's rather violently allergic to Ravyn as a hilarious joke, but the idea of her being with this man for the rest of her life when she can't even sleep in a bed next to him without being miserable is disgusting and horrifying to me. Finally Ravyn reaches a point where he's just like, "I'm going to shave all my hair off.

I guess the idea she was trying to convey was that if Ravyn shaved his waist-length hair and body hair off, he wouldn't be attractive anymore or something. That's the least he can do since for Susan being in the same room as him is like being constantly sick. A never-ending head cold. This sounds like hell. Kenyon has a HUGE thing for long-haired men. Romance such as it is, with flavorless Ravyn and sneezing, suffering Sue takes a major backseat in this book - not only to Kenyon's lengthy explanations of her world, but also to side character development.

Oh, this is what's going on with Nick Gauthier, let's talk about him for three hours. Oh, Ash is having sex with that horrible evil woman again, let's talk about that for two hours. Oh, Stryker, he's evilly plotting to take Acheron down, blah blah blah. Listen, I don't read these stories for Kenyon's unique and elaborate take on Atlantis and Greek mythology. I read them for a good love story and good kissing and sex. Neither are delivered in this book. So it's a failure in my eyes. This chip seemed to only appear when the person giving orders or directions was male. This was never explained, and I a rabid feminist could not really understand her knee-jerk negative reaction every time a man told her to do something.

It made her seem a bit unhinged to me. I mean, she'd unload on a guy for telling her to do something when it is obvious the guy wasn't being an asshole, just making a suggestion or giving her advice or trying to keep her safe. It was unreasonable and weird. And trust me, for ME to be saying that of all people means that it really was. She accepts the blame for whatever happens in her life, and doesn't blame other people or God or whoever for what has happened to her. That was one of the few good things in the novel.

When Susan is introduced to an attractive female character, we get this: Susan started to mention the fact that it was a bit nippy outside for the outfit but held her tongue. Maybe the woman would get a cold and gain some weight At the very least, she'd cover up that perfect body so that Susan wouldn't feel quite so inadequate. Start a new diet tomorrow. One, this grates my cheese. Have some respect for yourself, woman! Do you have ZERO self-esteem and self-confidence?!?!!? Two, this is pretty out of character for Susan. In summary, I hated this book for a number of reasons.

Nov 28, Alp rated it really liked it Shelves: As always, Sherrilyn Kenyon delivers an excellent story, a fantastic combination of Fantasy, Romance, and Action, in her own unique writing style. This book contains an interesting storyline and endearing characters. Ravyn Kontis was a Were-Hunter, an Arcadian leopard, who was betrayed by his human mate and that caused him to lose his loved ones, his family, and his life.

With his wrath and the need to take revenge, he became the Dark-Hunter. Since then, he had lived a life of loneliness. His family hated him and turned back on him. Susan Michaels was once the successful investigative reporter until she wrote one story that ruined her career because she trusted her source. She lost everything, her job, her reputation, her boyfriend, and her home. One day, she got a call from her friend, told her to go to the animal shelter for very interesting news, her whole life was turned upside down since the moment she went there, took the cat out, and brought him to her home.

She was dragged into the world she never knew existed and her life was going to change forever. There were some unexpected moments that gave me surprises, and some sweet moments Ravyn and Susan spent together, which made me smile and feel so happy for them. I loved all the fight scenes in this book, they filled with excitement and danger.

The romance is good, I loved that they took the time to build and develop their relationship and trust. I would have given this book 5 stars if I hadn't had a super big problem with Nick Gautier! I was extremely disappointed in him and I got really mad to the point where I had a wild urge to smash his teeth down his throat.

I hated that he let his anger and misery blind him to his own faults. How dared he blame Acheron for his death?! He acted like a child who couldn't admit his mistakes. He didn't deserve to be a Dark-Hunter! However, this is a very good read and I really did enjoy it so I ended up giving 4 stars to this one. Jul 03, Gavin rated it really liked it Shelves: This was one of the better Dark-Hunter books in the series so far.

I loved the humor and also enjoyed the fact that the romance was on a slightly slower burn than is typical with most PNR books. I felt that gave time for both Ravyn and Susan to grow attached to each other on more than just a physical level. Susan is a disgraced news reporter who has been relegated to working at a paranormal focused newspaper, run by her old college friend, after a scandal cost her her career in mainstream media. Ravyn is a Were-Hunter based in Seattle. The pair meet each other when Susan tracks down a source who has a lead on a story involving the recent vampire-like slayings in the city to local animal shelter.

While there she adopts a strange looking pet cat to keep her cover story in place. That cat turns out to be the Were-Hunter Ravyn who has been trapped in animal form by some new Daimon magical collar. Susan manages to unintentionally rescue him from the Daimons and is soon caught up in the happenings as the Daimons are eager to get their captive back.

The story was humorous and fun. It was helped along by the small things like the fact that Susan is allergic to cats! Susan was a likable, strong, and surprisingly capable heroine while Ravyn was a good guy with a typically tragic back story. I thought they made a great couple and I loved the slow build of the romance as they had to learn to trust each other.

As well as the typical Daimons Susan and Ravyn also had to deal with corrupt cops and the villainous Daimon leader Stryker. This book actually added a bit of depth to Stryker's character. We also got more progression in the overall series story arc with appearances from Savitar, Acheron, and Nick, as well as Stryker.

I always enjoy it when the books in the Dark-Hunter series have a good balance between the novel story arc and the overall series story arc. All in all this was an enjoyable read. This was narrated by Carrington MacDuffie who I always think does a good job with the series. She gets the over the top humor. View all 8 comments. Jul 10, Grecia Robles rated it liked it.

Feb 14, Denisa rated it really liked it Shelves: I admit, I expected this book to be good. It was funny as hell, I absolutely loved the main female character. She was sarcastic and fun and smart! Least favorite of all the Dark-Hunters in the series I've read the first 10, this being The story did have some interesting backstory on Acheron, Nick and Stryker, but not enough to read the book in my opinion.

The main romance story was a bust. Heroine Susan was like nails on chalkboard who spoke mostly sarcastic comments. I really wanted someone to just slap her down, just once! The hero Ravyn was OK, but his tortured past was no different than any other Dark Argh, frustrating story. The romance was so unrealistic. I would classify this book as a 'wall banger'. The rest of the story just had me. This book is part of a huge network of books. All things tie in together in some form or fashion. These two have crazy white hot chemistry together. And it doesn't hurt matters that Ravyn is fine as hell.

And some heart breaking moments too. I would definitely recommend this read. Lots and lots of badly done sex wrapped very loosely around a
