The Dark Secrets of an Immortal
New relationships continue to strengthen as Sam and his family are yet again confronted with stressful challenges and unexpected dangers, finding themselves faced with a multitude of dark secrets they never anticipated. And not all those secrets are far from home. As Sam discovers more about the women in his life, he finds himself dealing with important decisions that affect them all, knowing the outcomes of those choices will have permanent influences on their lives forever. Can they accept the regrets of those they love, and meet the trials lying ahead of them? And when they are faced with the darkest secrets of all, can they remain united to face them together as one? This book contains adult content that may not be suitable for all audiences, including adult scenes and harem elements. Prologue By the time Heidi came running down the stairs, she had her entire family’s attention, but she ignored them as she ran directly toward me. She slowed down at the last second, slipping behind my back and grabbing my arm, as if she was trying to use me as a physical shield. Needless to say, everyone was looking at her in alarm now. Her face was bright red, her pulse visible in her neck, as she spoke up the moment that the guy following her made it halfway down the stairs. “I have an announcement to make,” she said loudly, not looking at anyone directly. “Sam isn’t just Lexi’s coworker. He’s also my boyfriend.” Absolute silence. Painfully, awkward, silence. “Oh,” her mother finally said loudly, a mixture of confusion and dread in her expression. “Heidi, sweetie, if he’s your boyfriend, then why didn’t you tell us?” “Because,” Lexi announced, beginning to walk over, her expression determined. She waited until she was hooking my other arm before continuing. “He’s also my boyfriend,” she said bluntly. The Dark Secrets of an Immortal is a full-length Men’s Fantasy, Superpower Fantasy, Superhero Adventure, Superpower Romance.

Another hit
The Immortal series has recently become one of my favorites. I love the characters, the futuristic setting, the drama and the love the MC and his "pride". The worst part is waiting for more!

Good but drifting
More slice of life, with just a little action.
Mostly as good as previous books, but the story is getting weird, and that's a lot of wives and girlfriends to keep track of. Every time the MC uses a female name I have to stop and think witch one that is.

It amazes me how fast time can run when a book and it’s content is something you enjoy. I started the book early in the morning, when I looked at the clock, again, it was afternoon.
I think I like the chemistry and equality between the individual characters of Sam‘s family. How they complement and support each other, especially between the female MC‘s.
When there are so many people involved in a relationship than there some hiccups and problems to overcome. Mr. Eckstein has point to pick out those issues that can occur in such a relationship and solves them in a way I appreciate - honesty. There is not one scene where I would say that is fake respectively unnecessary drama added to create an even more unnecessary story arc that gets solved in the dumbest way possible, like it seems to be trend in other books nowadays.
The different storylines get pushed forward in a continuous way and reveals twists and turns without flooding the reader with too much details.

Less enthused than with previous books.
Though this book had most of the hallmarks of it's predecessors, I didn't love it as much.
It felt like the author kept shoving more and more emotional complications in it, to the point that it stopped making sense. I stopped being able to empathise with the characters. The emotional and psychological intelligence displayed in the previous books took a small hit as well. Like this was a 3.5-4.0 rather than the ussual 4.0-4.5. Some of the emotional problems that were "resolved" were not resolved as completley or as well as I have come to expect from this series.
The issues with Winter alone felt somewhat shoehorned in and made her feel more opaque and confusing as a character. It made sense (sort of) on a surface level but beneath that it lost credibility.
Over all, I might choose to continue the series, but I am dissapointed.
(Disclosure: Some of my displeasure is related to my personal stances and conclusions differing from the author's. In the past I've enjoyed the story challenging my conceptions. I did not this time. I also think that most of my evaluation above still stands regardless. I only wish I could rate 3.5 ⭐ stars.)

Most haremlit books i read, the relationships between MC and the girls is secondary, usually with very little thought or development, to the main action plot of the story. This series is pretty much the opposite, with the focus solely on MC and his gradually growing family, and coping with the trials and tribulations thrown at this familial unit. It's honestly a refreshing change. I love watching these people living their everyday lives, planning dates, and attending to each others needs, and trying to keep it all healthy and working, while occasionally having to deal with crises usually connected with the slowly developing main plot of the series.

Holy crud muffin bucket stick
That ending was so good. I did not expect that twist coming. also the underwater mission, very interesting and intriguing. I will say, curtis, you really really really really overdid it with the exposition and monologuing the characters did in this book. Somewhere in the vicinity of 81 to 83% of this book was inner monologue or area descriptions. Rather than character interactions. That's a lot dude. Still an awesome book, and a way better ending than i. I'm excited to see what the next one has in store

Well thought out series
Superhero harem adult situations
Sam Archer settles into his new job as a professional superhero, traveling to work with Lexi. The family adjusts to Winter joining the group dynamic, while Lily and Freya focus on home life with Heidi lending a hand with Rose and Eden. In some ways a sedate entry as everyone adjusts to living together, but while one threat is dealt with, a meet threat is introduced and Ramzi Haroun makes his presence known. Enjoyable.

Family members stories
A good read with the beginning of one man and the creation of a unique family. Each members has a strange story to tell. A story which has the main character accept people of different backgrounds to be members of his family. Stories link all the members and each family members tells their perspective. A good family plot and ways they survived together. A good read.

[super power] [Cat girl] [Vampire] [Super strength] [Super police]
with a new member in the family and trying to work under the super police with one of his gfs.
A few times accidentally spied on his new gf father and his family but they were ok with it since it was accidental.
Founding out his enemy clones are somehow linked due to shared DNA and his daughter remembers stuff before her death.

Another great addition to the series
Got to say this one was another great book by our boy Kurtis, we get alot more character interaction and development that was a bit shocking and interesting at the same time, we also really get to dive into Sam's powers and continue on trying to figure out the maid threat. All and all amazing series cant wait for more

The series must be drawing to a close, but it's not over yet, so...here's another book.
By this point you know what to expect, and you won't be dissapointed. I loved it, but it's still goofy nonsense that could really use an editor and doesn't make much sense if you think about it.
(Also, the first few books used fade-to-black for the sex scenes; not sure when it changed exectly but it's pretty explicit at this point. I don't care either way, but some may.)

Great take on the super hero genre
The series as a whole is a fantastic mix of slice of life and super hero action. Leaning more towards slice of life. Great series I highly recommend it to anyone that wants a mature twist on thw super hero trope.

Amazing
The story telling within this series is astounding. The chemistry between characters makes them feel more real and the entire premise more believable. The characters feel real and the flushed out romance is unique and marks the series as a must read in this genre.

Another good book
Great book that deals with strong emotions and an unconventional family in the making. Still seems as if Sam and fam don’t have much control over the rudder on the ship they call life. Hope they eventually find it.

Another great additon
Another great addition to the immortal series. Definitely feels the same and I was feeling just as stressed as Sam while reading. Can't wait for more.

So much scoffing
Not too bad - a bit slow compared to the other books. Also, everyone kept scoffing and scoffing and scoffing...

book 6 please
Another good book in the series. I like how it is tying into the Omega series and how well the family is coming together. Looking forward to the next book.

I love this series!

The level of introspection and character development and the total time devoted to those things is kind of overwhelming at moments, but the reality is that in books with mind reading and telepathy aspects... the plot falls completely apart without it. So all in all this is a relaxing and enjoyable read, but def not something you would read for excitement. Both the action kind and the "other" kind ;)

Good continuation.

A fun fantasy series in a well drawn out city where superpowers abound.

I continue to enjoy this series. Sam now has a seemingly complete harem, and the focus is mostly on the management of those relationships and the group dynamics. Overall, character development continues to be prioritized, and it’s interesting to see how far we’ve come in five books. Who would have expected the jealously rapey vampire to develop into the supporting matriarch of this little family? I really like Winter’s character as well, but she is a little too honest. Author really loves the slow reveals as he teases us once again at the end of this book. I am curious to see what happens next, but it has been over two years since this release, so hopefully we get book 6.

I wish he'd switch & gather his friends powers. Imagine a fire & electric wielding vampire.
