30 Days of Night: Eternal Damnation: Book 3

I loved it!

I loved it, the story was one I could barely put down. I was disappointed when it ended because it left me wondering what was next and I can't wait to read more.

Jennifer Wardrip - Personal Read

I was prepared to really enjoy this book, but instead found myself totally underwhelmed. Whereas the movie (and, I figured, the book)focuses on what happens to the town of Barrow, Alaska, this book puts that incident in the background and instead focuses on FBI Special Agent Andy Gray.

Based some time after those events in Barrow, Andy is trying to figure out exactly what happend to his partner, Paul. He spends a lot of time going back and forth with himself (Is Paul a vampire? There's no such thing as vampires. Is Paul a member of the blood-sucking undead? There's no such thing as the blood-sucking undead.) until I was ready to scream.

Although there are slightly enjoyable parts to the book, the majority of those center around Stella Olemaun, a survivor from Barrow who wrote a book about the events that happened there.

I'm going to pass on picking up the other books in the series, unless I can find one that starts out as good as the prologue of this book, which dealt exclusively with Barrow, Alaska, and its residents.

Bloody and Brilliant

Gore soaked, and lit in shadows, 30 Days of Night is one of the best vampire based comic books ever offered. Forget Joss Wheaton¿s lovable camp, or Morbius¿s dark brooding in the pages of Spider-Man. No, the vampires here are remorseless, brutal, and above all else cunning. They stop at nothing, and want only death. They are not harmed by wooden crosses, holy water, or stakes, nor are they stopped by running water. The only thing that can stop them is the sun. Unfortunately for the residents of Barrow, Alaska, the sun has just set and will not rise for 30 days, and the vampires have arrived in mass, to kill, too feed. Though I will not offer spoilers I will say the ending is surprisingly touching, leaving a sweet, melancholy note to the entire affair. Steve Niles¿s script is very good, better than most on the market, and Ben Templesmith reminds me very much of Bill Sienkiewicz, who¿s better known work includes Eletrka Assassin. Eclectic and energetic, the art is interesting and visually captivating. Over all, this isn¿t the run of the mill graphic novel, and it has a very underground feel to it. It edgy and fun in a very dark way, and recommended to underground comic fans especially. This graphic collects 30 Days of Night #1-3 and has the script for issue #1.

Pretty Good

Thought the first one was better, but I enjoyed this one.

A good read

Down fall, soom of the chapters in the ebook are doubled in it.

BLAH

This book flipping blew chunks. At first i was like this book is going to be good but with every page turn that hope went down. This book could of been made of win but it is made of fail. The only use i found for it is toilet paper but its not that great for that even

30 Days of Night the first one was the best comic book I ever read. Every single strip was full of action and suspense. I would really recommend this book to people who like vampires, death, and full of carnage.

this book was great.

This book was great.I think that this book has been the only horror I`ve read so far.

great book

i havent read any of the 30 days of nights graphic novels when i picked this book up , so ur good to go if u have no idea wats goin on. an fbi agents partner is turned into the 'undead' from a mystery woman. so his partner andy gray goes on a massive and frantic search across the country to find and take revenge on his partner. his search leads him back to where all the events in the graphic novels took place, Barrow, Alaska. this book is a great vampire book, its more of the modern side of the vampire tales.meaning no garlic, stakes and such. so its a great horror and suspense book all around. get it.

Great concept, so-so execution.

Niles gives us a very clever idea, and I found the writing sound, but the art by Templesmith is a little too sketchy and atmospheric for its' own good in a few places, when it's hard to discern the action being depicted.

Fantastic setting, mediocre story

I was a bit surprised by this book. I had such high hopes for the story. There are so many possibilities that could have manifested with the plot of this book and instead of exploiting any number of those possibilities to strike terror into anyone who has ever been afraid of the dark, Steve Niles goes with the route that any number of the writers of the 'spandex superhero' ilk would have taken. Ben Templesmith's artwork is extraordinary because it looks like as if a child drew some of the panels. Some of the art is displayed in a somewhat scribbled fashion and it provides the effect that whoever drew the piece is scared of the vampires, just as a child may scribble out a portrait of the bogeyman who haunts them at night. That is not to say that Templesmith does not have talent. Most of the art is gorgeous and the texture and lack of contrast between the characters and the surrounding environment provide a handle for the reader to grip so that they are submerged in the bleak winter of Barrow. I would definitely include this on a list as a must-read. The story is gripping in parts and most of dialogue is spot-on (save for a few moments of horror cheesiness) and as noted earlier, the artwork is fantastic. If Niles writing on the next run of this project 'Dark Days' provides more of punch it will certainly redeem some of the cliche'd moments of the book.

So logical...

It makes so much sense to set a vampire novel in the arctic where nights go on forever that I can't believe no one thought of it before. A very good book.

Great concept, ordinary execution

This title takes a GREAT concept (vampires taking over a town where the sun doesn't rise for thirty days) and turns it into... nothing much. Templesmith's art is appropriately spooky (though a bit hard to decipher in places), but the story itself seems routine. The ending almost redeems the fairly pedestrian story. I hope the movie can build on the suspense of the story.
