The Taker by Alma Katsu Book Summary

From the author of The Hunger—hailed by Stephen King as “deeply, deeply disturbing, hard to put down”—comes a hauntingly atmospheric tale filled with alchemy, lust, and betrayal.

True love can last an eternity…but immortality comes at a price.

On the midnight shift at a hospital in rural Maine, Dr. Luke Findley is expecting another quiet evening of frostbite and the occasional domestic dispute. But the minute Lanore McIlvrae—Lanny—enters his ER, she changes his life forever. A mysterious woman with plenty of dark secrets, Lanny is unlike anyone Luke has ever met. He is inexplicably drawn to her…despite the fact that she is a murder suspect with a police escort. As she begins to tell her story, Luke finds himself utterly captivated.

Her impassioned account begins at the turn of the 19th century in the same small town of St. Andrew, Maine, back when it was a Puritan settlement. Consumed as a child by her love for the founder’s son, Jonathan, Lanny will do anything to be with him. But the price she pays is steep—an immortal bond that chains her to a terrible fate for all eternity. And now, two centuries later, the key to her healing and her salvation lies with Dr. Luke Findley.

Part historical novel, part supernatural page-turner, The Taker is a “mesmerizing” (Booklist, starred review) story about the power of unrequited love not only to elevate and sustain, but also to blind and ultimately destroy.

The taker. Sooooooo goood

Taker. Interview with a Vampire without any interesting characters

Great book. This was one of the best books I have read in a long time. As the other reviewers wrote, it has everything in it. I didn't want to put it down and I didn't want it to end. The writing was exceptional. I felt I knew the characters and what they were feeling. At times I was on the edge of my seat and other times I had tears in my eyes. I loved the history intertwined into the story. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes intrigue, love, alchemy and history.

The Taker. This book will get under your skin. It is written in a gripping, but literary style. I lost sleep trying to keep reading. It was beautiful, gripping, scary, thrilling. I both hated and loved the main charter. I was scared to death by the villain. A really different book!

Amazing!. This book was turned out to be nothing like what I had expected! The story never gets dull or boring and has you gasping at every turn! I could not put this down! I am so excited to learn what happens next, I'm addicted!

Best gift ever!. My husband got me this book and i have to say it is one of the best books I've read so far! "Captivating" doesn't even begin to describe… I guess it just hits straight to the heart. I loved it!!! ❤👍

The Taker. Awesome read!!!! First few chapters a little slow bit then.... Couldn't put it down

Wow. I hated this book.....at first. I just couldn't get into it, then it took off like a rocket and I couldn't put it down. Don't know why I didn't like it at first....it was totally me not the book. Amazing writer, the words were like silk...amazing book!!!!!

The Taker. I found the characters unlikeable, and I had no emotional connection to them. The story was unpredictable and somewhat interesting, but I kept waiting to feel something and I never did.

Fascinated. It's been so long since I've read a book I couldn't put down. I saw the book at LAX and decided to download it. By the time I landed in DC, I was 3/4 done! I was enthralled by the characters, the history, her unconditional love; I finished it the next day, as soon as I walked in from work. Im so glad this is a trilogy!

Loved it!. This was such a wonderful read. Any moment I had I was reading to find out what happened next. I can not wait till The Reckoning comes out.

Very interesting. I read a book a week and its hard to find good ones. This was very interesting. Some holes i hope get filled with next book. Excited to start it!

Loved it!!!!. Great read and captivating!
