The Darkest Lie

The Darkest Lie by Gena ShowalterJuly, 2010 – Gideon’s Story

In this riveting new installment of New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter’s Lords of the Underworld series, Gideon, keeper of the Demon of Lies, fights to uncover the truth….

Forced to his knees in agony whenever he speaks the truth, Gideon can recognize any lie—until he captures Scarlet, a demon-possessed immortal who claims to be his long-lost wife.  He doesn’t remember the beautiful female, much less wedding — or bedding — her.  But he wants to . . . almost as much as he wants her.

But Scarlet is keeper of Nightmares, too dangerous to roam free, and a future with her could mean ultimate ruin.  Especially as Gideon’s enemies draw closer . . . and the truth threatens to destroy all he’s come to love . . . 

We will post more information when it becomes available.

    I’ve loved Gideon from the first time he was mentioned. I thought his curse was the most tragic so i can wait to spend more time getting inside his head!

  3. stasia says:

    After reading the darkest whisper, i had a felling he might be paired with nightmare, since he thought it would be so cool to posses that demon…i like it

    Dear Gena Showalter,

    Will you be giving Cronus and Neptune their own stories because they need pay back big time for all the trouble they put everyone through.

    Kind regards

    Gena. Your series is wonderful. I love all of the lords. I have read all the books you have written in less than 2 weeks. I became nuts with how amazing these men are. I hope to see NIX from KC stir up trouble in Buda. She is awsome. Okay and Torin would be great for her. I love how cute Strider is and hope to read his story soon. But the love of my life is Paris. I fell in love with him in darkest kiss. I know there a lot of Sienna haters but I would love them together. I think that we will see more into her story and understand why she was a hunter. Gideon’s story is going to be fun to read because he has to lie and everything is going to be up side down in this story. Oh Gena do you have any idea who’s story you will be writing in 2011? Please let it be Paris! Thanks for all your books.

    gideon’s story sounds like it is going to be so good! then again when is something gena writes not good? i literally read the darkest knight so much it is falling apart. i can’t wait to read amun’s story though! an torin’s, i think those poor babies have it the worst.

    The Lords of the Underworld series wasn’t the first of Gena’s books that I read, but I have definately fallen in love with them. Since I read the Darkest Whisper and they had the part of Gideon’s point of veiw I have become very fond of him. I am practically counting down the days until I can read the Darkest Lie. Let’s see if Gideon can take Reyes’ place in my heart.

    <3 You Gena! You are my favorite Author! Keep up the good work!

    O.o Got it! Gideon mentioned something about Nightmare and said it made his heart twinge! Awe! He misses her but doesnt know it!….That makes me kinda sad. I am digging the blue hair and electric blue eyes. Gorgeous. I have bright blue eyes…But I dont know about how ID look with blue hair. But he sounds hot….So, when do we meet more of the other demons that have possessed other warriors? I know there has to be more. Alot more…

  11. Meaghan says:

    I love, love, LOVE these books. The stories she writes is so riveting and so sweet. But what i love most is how her characters have sad or serious moments too. She’s always unpredictable with her characters and that makes me just want to read more! It’s not the usual romance periodical with just the fluffy stuff. I would recommended anyone to these fantastic tales of adventure and love. Great pleasure reading!!! ^_^
    You GO Gena!!!!!

  12. Kim Wragg says:

  13. betty jean says:

    omg..i want to read more of the underworld guys..what happens to pandoras box and ashlyn having the baby..i luv it..keep it up GENA..LUV YOU!

  14. Ashley says:

    I am dying waiting for this book! Gideon is my favorite. I have never been attracted to the more punk look that he sports but something about that coupled with only being able to tell lies, obvious bloodlust and revenge, and his total loyalty to those he loves is just so sexy. I can’t wait to read his story. And nightmare? What a perfect other half for him! Man I wish he was real!

  15. Allison says:

    So Reyes is my def. favorite but when is Paris’s story going to come out?

  16. jamie says:

    I am so ready for Amun story………………………..maybe hell be paired up with Nix

  17. Jennifer Ebba says:

    Okay, so another great cover! By far my favorite of your series, but not the only one I like. I just wanted to say thank you SO MUCH for this series and I am happy I don’t have to wait a year from the time I finish Aeron’s story till Gideon. My mind is running with all the possible plot twists you may throw at us!

  18. Kirsty says:

    cant wait to read this book, ive always had a soft spot for gideon :)

  19. Laquita says:

    Dear Gena Big fan read all the books u wrote. I can’t wait til the new Lords come out I kno I will read the new one in a day. When it comes to ur books I can’t put them down til I finish.

  20. alex says:

    OMG! I CANT WAIT TILL GID’S STORY IS OUT! BUT THE ONE I REALY CANT WAIT FOR IS NIX AND TORINS!!!!!!!!! WEN TORIN SAID HE WANTED TO LIK NIX’S POINTED EARS I LAUGHED SO HARD BECAUSE NIX IS ALWAYS SAYING TO CADE I WANT TO LIK YOUR HORNS! I THINK I DIED N WENT TO HELL! BECAUSE WELL THE LORDS GO THERE! GO GENA GO! ^_-

  21. DAPHNEY says:

    to jamie
    i’m so sorry to tell you this, but i really dont think that Amun would be able to handle Nix, heck i dont think Nix can handle Nix. lol. but i do believe that once she become *(spoiler alart)a goddess, she’ll be able to help Torin with his no touch issue that he has. lol. which, if we think about it, if nix left the IAD, it wouldnt be the same, and if torin left LOTU, that wouldnt be the same. and Anya and Nix wouldn’t be able to stay in the same house, they’re too much alike. so i do feel that she will appear to help out they move on.

  22. christy says:

    surely there will be a collaboration between gena and kresly on nix i myself am going crazy for that book kresley explains the lore as so many diffrent factions why cant nix stay its still apart of lore just another sect and nucking futs nix would never leave her girls but she needs love to she needs a man to pull her back sometimes lol party girl i love that, the iad and the lotu can mesh perfectly just another factor in the assesion mabe torin will help her as well earn, that goddessness lol and who knows what she will do for him in return hahaa give him horns and lick them

  23. christy says:

    by the way nix and anya should get along just fine anya could almost be a valkerie. the nix and torin book. gena can toattaly pull off i love her sereies as much as i do K.C. ive read all of the ones i can get my hands on so gena come on with nix and torin already lol sorry im very impatient. 2011 way to long to wait but would tottaly take it for a christmas gift this year………………………2010heheeheehe

  24. Joha says:

  25. Wiebke says:

    I had exactly the same dream before I read the book

  26. Brandee says:

    I really LOVE this book cover! I cant wait for it to be released!

  27. Caitlin says:

    OMG! I love Gideon! Will this mean that if he wants to say he loves her than he has to say he hates her? Confusing much? I NEED my fix of LOTU but i have already like memorised the books! Gods! I WANT THE BOOKS SOOOOOO BADLY!!!!!!

  28. DonaGothika says:

    *cries* His HAIR!!! Where’s the blue?! BooHOO!

  29. Ashley says:

    I’m really excited for this book. But I think in 2011 I’ll be rooting for Strider’s story. I honestly can see him being with a girl who loves to compete as well.

    Keep up the great work Gena!
