This book will complete the main arc started with Dark Elves I: Taken. It’s been a long road and the elves have gone through some trying times. This book isn’t any exception. It’s definitely the longest book in the series, the longest I’ve written to date.
BLURB
Okay, I might have to much time on my hands when I start trying to figure out the plight of the dark elves. In Discovery it was implied that Garn and his trumate died because of her not being changed and being pregnant.(by the way that broke my heart) With Naildlye as a new type of female elf especially one that can get pregnant (by any animal, no less) is she the answer to the raedjours problem of the lack of females that can have females? Then the question is will the children have red satin or black satin skin? or maybe a dark plum? Just speculating. Either way I love the story as well as the yummy sex.
Tune in to DE6 for answers to these and other questions
glad you’re enjoying the series!
*sighs* Dang it Jet…you definitly like to tease the heck out of us with all the litle hints here. LOL
Looking forward to more Dark Elves..my favorite Series from you!

Khenta, thank you and… <>
Hey Jet,
Is this to be tha last of the Dark Elves, or do you are you thinking of doing more? Also do you think the next combo of DE5 & DE6 will be out soon or not till next summer? I just love this books, but you made me very sad with Radin at the end of DE3, can’t wait to read the next ones!!!
Deja
P.S.
Do you recommend any other books with these great threesomes? YUM!!! Hope all is finding you well.
This is the last of the Dark Elves books that I plan to write. To be honest, I need a break
By combo, I assume you’re asking about the print books? I actually don’t know what the plan is, to be honest, nor the timing. All I know is that I plan to have the manuscript for the 6th book ready early 2009 for the ebook release. After that, it’s kind of up to Loose Id.
Threesomes? Well, I would, of course, recommend my Leashed series
I’d also highly recommend Morgan Hawke’s Interstellar series. They’re the only ones that really jump to mind this AM
Thank you!
Jet,
I love this series, I’m looking forward to the next installment. I have a request. When Radin was released from the vortex, his tatoos were red and he was missing some. Could you do up a picture of him as he is now? I’d dearly love to see his new look.
Thanks, A devoted fan.

Jet,
Let me first start by saying that i LUV the Dark Elves series and am upset to hear that u won’t be writing anymore on them. Its been wonderful to see how all of the characters have developed and how the Elves have started to come out of hiding….it would be great to see how they fare in the next ‘few centuries’, but i guess u would know best when to retire them.
On the other hand, I also thoroughly enjoyed the Leashed series and was wondering if you were going to continue writing and expanding on the characters in that series?
Whatever it is u end up doing, I’m sure i’ll enjoy whatever books u produce.
Have a very Merry Christmas and New Year!!!!!
Teresa
Thanks Teresa!
It’s not that I say I won’t ever write another book in the Dark Elves universe, I just don’t have any planned after book 6. And I need a bit of a break. The elves have been good to me but they took a lot out of me! lol
As for Leashed, you bet. More are coming up. I’m hoping to get Leashed 4 written in the first half of next year sometime.
Happy holidays to you too!
AT LEAST RADIN IS ALIVE. THANK GOD FOR THAT. I HOPE HE WILL BE MAKING AN APPEARANCE IN THE NEXT BOOK.
LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. GOOD LUCK WITH WRITING IT.

[...] I write Dark Elves VI: Awakening. Yes, I’m finally going to start it *is scared* But I made some pretty pictures so [...]
I’m really excited about another Dark Elves book! And I’m so excited there will be more m/m. Have to admit I’d be less excited if it was just f/m. Since book 5 came out, I’ve been pondering all the same questions mentioned in the post, and am glad to know answers will be forecoming! I hate unresovled issues :S
Well, I’ll tell you that it’s probably going to be mostly m/f just like the others. But I plan to tie up the loose ends.
Okay, I recommended these books to a friend of mine (who is now also a big fan) and he asked me to pass on his questions (he has limited internet access).
So what he suggested/asked is now that the Dark Elves are trading with the humans why they are not buying any and all female slaves that traders can get their hands on? Suza started out on her way to a slave market and I think it was mentioned that other slave caravans had been through. He also said that based on reading the books he thought after Kinig had spent so much time speading the word about the Elves that there would many women who were perhaps discontent with “their lot in life” that they would be willing to attempt a new life with the Dark Elves. My friend did say that these options would not necessarily bring a great number of females to the Elves but he was surprised these avenues had not been explored.
We had a great discussion on this and I thought you might be interested in what he had to say after reading the books.
Those suggestions are completely valid and, in fact, I think they’re true. They just haven’t shown up in the stories I’ve written. Remember, Discovery is the only book I’ve written where the humans know about the elves and I was pretty much concentrated on Kinig. Believe me, lots of other stuff went on. Lots of stuff that didn’t fit in the story. There’s even more that probably won’t make it into Awakening. I’ve got this fine balancing act now of trying to stay true to the current story while satisfying the curiosity of the readers who are fans of the entire series.
I do think there are women who are dissatisfied or curious who’ve come to the elves of their own will. I do think the elves have seriously cut down on the slave trade through the forest, but they can’t be seen as too much of a customer of the slavers. That, after all, would give the slavers reasons to go out and capture women and that’s not fair, is it? Savous is smarter than to encourage something like that.
Unfortunately, the world–even just the elves’ piece of it–is far too big for me to encompass in just a few stories. I can only hope that I’ve given enough detail to satisfy most curiosity. And, although Awakenings is the last book I plan, I kind of doubt it’ll be the last book in that world. I’ve spent WAY too much time there to just abandon it completely.
Good questions! Very cool for me that you and your friend are that interested
*************** DE5 SPOILER ALERT ********************
I am so glad I discoverd the dark elves series thank you jet for writing it I am absolutely hooked. I’m hopping that this next dark elves book will involve radin more. Especialy since it is titled awakening and he is in a coma and what not. oooo I’m so excited. I wonder if Naildlye will be his truemate or someone else. Since Naildlye can get pregnant by anyone She could be very helpful to the dark elves. Maybe she will pop out some girl elves too, Although I think her story needs a happy ending not just having her be a breeding machine. Especially since al’tone killed all her other babies. Oooh I can’t wait to read this last story. Hurry jet Hurry. (:
Thanks, Stacy B
I had to edit your comment to mark the spoiler alert. Wouldn’t want anyone who hadn’t read DE5 to read it by mistake.
As for Awakening… we shall see
Oops thanks for the edit. I’m so bad at that. Although if you people haven’t read it yet. Stop what you are doing right now, and go buy it right away. (:
******************** Dark Elves 5 spoiler alert ****************************
Just have to say love the Dark Elves series and am hoping that book 6 will find Radin awakened from his coma. I also want to say that I really enjoyed Fox and Dragon as well, It was one of my most favorites and wonder if you plan to write other books along those lines. As far as DE, I could not put them down I read all 5 books within 2 days. I must say congratulations on such a wonderful erotic series and hope that you continue as i will read all that you write. Thanks for the fantasies.
Sorry I had to edit your comment for spoiler, Maria, but don’t want to mess it up for anyone who might not have read the stories.
That said, thank you and I hope you like #6 when I get done with it!
[...] think I’m almost done with DE6. I should be. But the end is kind of eluding me. Bastids. FYI, there is some m/m action in it along [...]
I just happened to luck up on coming across the D/E series. I was reviewing books on a web site and came across the covers. I open up some dialog and was taken with the story line. More over I was intrigued with how you intergrated so much information. Every character and their individualized story I had grown to love. Radin, Savous and Salin were truly my favorites. Radin must have a place in this last story line. He brings everything together and I am more than sure that he holds some keys to the perservation of the D/E clan. I was thinking about the conversation Irin had with the goddess before going into the chamber that held Radin and Savous with her saying she could tell them so much but there was never enough time. I wonder if she inbeded that information and more in Radin when he returned. However I have one questions, those white and blood red marks on Radin I wonder what they mean and what happen to the bad ELF who had the female elf in the last book when he was pulled into the vortex. Is he dead or is he merged with Radin. I wonder were you will go with this edition.
