"This book not only answered many questions, but also brought closure to several outstanding situations. Murhder and the question of what truly happened to him and Xhex all those years ago finally gets answered. Over the years he's been mentioned, but this was one loose end I felt was time to be tied up. I thing Ward handled his story beautifully. This is the first book in this long running series that really felt like some of the first books written. To me it focused mainly on one new couple, with John and Xhex being secondary. John's medical condition tied in well with the scientist that becomes Murh's love interest.
This book also introduced a new character in Nate, the young vampire ultimately rescued from the illegal lab. This resuce brings Murhder and Xhex closure, and allows them more healing. The biggest unanswered question is why did Throe's book girlfriend metaphorically throw him under the bus? Will she present a new threat to the BDB, only time will tell.
Lastly, this book had the feel of finally getting all the answers. Tying up loose ends and maybe bringing a certain chapter in the series to a close. If that's truly the case where does the series go from here. Honestly the possibilities are endless. I personally would like the read some other stories set in the BDB vampire world, but not directly involving the BDB. The previous book Prisoner of the Night got some bad reviews and the main complaint was "the Brothers" weren't involved in it. My argument is this, Wrath and the brotherhood are the protectors of the race, but there's an entire vampire world according to the series that would be great hearing about. Can't wait to see where Ward takes us next in this great series!"

My argument is this, Wrath and the brotherhood are the protectors of the race, but there's an entire vampire world according to the series that would be great hearing about. Can't wait to see where Ward takes us next in this great series! - I've read all of J.R. Ward and really like her series, with a few exceptions. For this one, The Savior, I was happy with the basic story and glad to finally find out what she told us of Murdher's history and a resolution to his ongoing life. Murhder and Sarah will make a great pair and it's exciting to see this new evil (I have an inkling of where this new entity has come from). However, I have to say I was, overall, disappointed. Harken back to, say the first 5 or 6 novels in this series. This one does not come close. Although we get the facts of Murhder's history, we don't get the FEELING. What she has left out (in haste? boredom?) is the depth of the story. Let me give an example. Remember Z's story -- the detail, the pages and chapters it took to get it out of him -- it really took you with him on that journey. With Murhder we get a short synopsis of what the symphaths did to him, but no depth. I'm still not sure exactly what he went through and why it was so destructive to his very sanity. Another example -- the end summed up too quickly -- we had everybody happy without a whimper from anyone. Is everyone just getting so lovable and peaceable that there's no controversy anymore? No one to convince? I just think so much dialogue, arguments, back stories, flashbacks, were left out. Not like the initial books I grew to love and have reread several times. I might reread this once just to give a second chance, but after that. hmmph.
- I have waited for Murhder's story for years, since discovering the BDB books. I had expectations, hopes, and dreams, and this story was not only worth waiting for, but it lived up to all my expectations.
Murhder and Sarah are now one of the "it" couples for me. I absolutely fell in love with these characters. Reader be warned, they don't meet for several chapters, but the groundwork must be laid in order for them to have their grand meeting and ultimately fall in love. What I loved about this story, as opposed to the previous few, was that it was a fresh couple, their complete acceptance and devotion to each other. While forces surrounding their relationship may be complicated, their relationship isn't. Vampire meets Doctor, Vampire bonds to doctor, they fall in love, and figure out how to be together. Yeah, sure there were some roadblocks, but we didn't have to do a Vishous scrubs Jane's memory trope revisit.
Another big piece of this story, the part that had me nervous was Murhder and Xhex meeting up again and what that would mean for John & Xhex. While John had to deal with the to-be-expected bonded male response, they quickly overcame their issues, and what happened next was so stunning and memorable, and it warmed my heart. Two couples bonded as friends, Brothers, and spoiler alert...yes...I did say BROTHERS!
The ending of this book bordered on magical and it was a long time coming. Pure. Perfection.
While I have enjoyed all of the BDB books, for the last few years, we've revisited couples in The King and The Beast, we also had our hearts ripped out in The Shadows, and for me at least, we saw an ugly twist to a beloved character (Qhuinn) in The Chosen, and last year we got what I considered a "bridge" book with The Thief, which involved a couple I liked, but was too invested in either way. This book, The Savior, is a back-to-grass-roots Black Dagger Brotherhood. It put a period on one adversary and it ushered in what will be the next major story arch by introducing a new villain. Or is she? I have my theory on who the next baddie will be.
But no matter what, Murhder turned out to be one of the best, most noble of the Brothers, and I for one was so happy to see him come back to the fold, set things to rights, and see John finally receive the acknowledgment and title he so richly deserves. I was left wondering, though...will Xhex completely figure out who John really is? Or will that forever be only known to the reader? Guess this reader will just have to keep reading!
