Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: This was almost too much to handle. - WOW! I'm still trying to process this gruelling, intense, grim, yet weirdly uplifting trawl through the RuNyx universe. What happens to Lyla is so harrowing & visceral it's almost too painful to read. The trigger warnings need to be taken seriously but if, like me, you can appreciate the consummate skill with which she handles the subject matter then you will be in awe of the power that thrums throughout. The Shadow Man, terrifying, lethal & at the very least a sociopath, is drawn with surprising warmth whilst never losing sight of what he is at his very core. If you thought Tristan Caine was damaged, he's fluffy kittens & barefoot walks through the sand in comparison to TSM! This is a vitally important piece of the puzzle to the series & I urge you to absorb the full extent of the horror & power; you really won't regret it. Review: Raw, devastating but wholesome - This story was heavy, but a great addition to the series. I’m so glad to finally see this particular character, her story is devastating and raw. The way the Shadow Man pushed her limits and helped her overcome her trauma was hard, but you can feel his intentions were pure (possibly a smidge selfish so he could keep her but still good intentions none the less) Fixing all of her broken pieces bit by bit and encouraging her to turn her life around, find herself again after 22 years of trauma and abuse. A beautiful story and I can’t wait for the final instalment. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0B8BG91TQ | | Best Sellers Rank | 85,812 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 594 in Romantic Suspense (Books) 2,129 in Contemporary Romance (Books) | | Book 5 of 6 | Dark Verse | | Customer reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (11,459) | | Dimensions | 15.24 x 2.11 x 22.86 cm | | ISBN-13 | 979-8839226654 | | Item weight | 421 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 366 pages | | Publication date | 26 July 2022 | | Publisher | Independently published | ## Images ![The Annihilator: A Dark Obsession Romance (Dark Verse) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41zPKW7538L.jpg) ![The Annihilator: A Dark Obsession Romance (Dark Verse) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51C70fuboBL.jpg) ![The Annihilator: A Dark Obsession Romance (Dark Verse) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715PKYef5iL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was almost too much to handle. *by S***A on 9 June 2025* WOW! I'm still trying to process this gruelling, intense, grim, yet weirdly uplifting trawl through the RuNyx universe. What happens to Lyla is so harrowing & visceral it's almost too painful to read. The trigger warnings need to be taken seriously but if, like me, you can appreciate the consummate skill with which she handles the subject matter then you will be in awe of the power that thrums throughout.

I’m so glad to finally see this particular character, her story is devastating and raw. The way the Shadow Man pushed her limits and helped her overcome her trauma was hard, but you can feel his intentions were pure (possibly a smidge selfish so he could keep her but still good intentions none the less) Fixing all of her broken pieces bit by bit and encouraging her to turn her life around, find herself again after 22 years of trauma and abuse. A beautiful story and I can’t wait for the final instalment. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shadowman is my man *by R***. on 20 February 2025* What a book! Definitely one of my favourites of the year. RuNyx’s writing is ever so poetic and so many emotions were evoked as I was reading the story of Lyla and the Shadow Man. These two own me, heart, mind and soul. “𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘶𝘱 𝘦𝘹𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘸. 𝘕𝘰𝘯𝘦.” Shadowman is a very controversial character in the Dark Verse universe. He never claims to be a good man and he probably never will be. We humans are unpredictable, complicated, imperfect and he is exactly that. All that mattered to him was his flamma. Talk about a man who knows what he wants and how to get it. His obsession for her is one of the many reasons I love him and I’ll love him forevermore for what he did for her in chapter 18. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Annihilator: A Dark Obsession Romance (Dark Verse) - The Finisher: A Dark Marriage of Convenience Romance (Dark Verse) - The Syndicater: A Dangerous Dark Romance (Dark Verse) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/457424048-the-annihilator-a-dark-obsession-romance-dark-verse](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/457424048-the-annihilator-a-dark-obsession-romance-dark-verse) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
