Overview

The War is Over. The Vampires have Won. But a new campaign is about to begin. The first battle is over and Nero is dead. Now the human survivors will pull themselves from the ruins of their base to find that the world is a very different place outside Nero's territory. Nationally, the vampires have organized themselves into cabals but the scramble for power, raw materials and humans for their food, have led to an uneasy peace. Below the surface each state plots against the other and only the far-reaching power of the Vampire Council holds all-out war at bay. Now their control is slipping. And Peter Harris and his team have a plan that might just push them over the edge.

"Derek Gunn didn't reinvent the vampire novel...he stripped it back to its roots tearing away the pretensions other writers have used to humanize the fabled bloodsucking monster. "
---International Thriller Writers' Association

"an intriguing overall plot, with plenty of action and a concept that is far from ordinary." --Dark Scribe Magazine

"For those who like their vampires tough and truly terrifying" --Fear Zone

    Don't bother!!

    Wow, this book was an absolute mess! It would appear the author didn't even bother using spellcheck before publishing this disaster. It was almost painful to read given the extent of the grammatical errors alone! Although there were chapters, he didn't bother separating the different scenes within, so it was extremely confusing as the action and dialogue jumped from one location to another. I found it very difficult to keep track of all the characters, especially when half of them were named Jack or John, and because sometimes he'd actually mix the names up (ie calling Sandra "Sarah"). The underlying story really isn't that bad, but it was so poorly executed I cannot bear to finish this trilogy. Someone needs to get this guy an editor!!

    I did not get this story. There were typos and mispelling and bad punctuation! This writer needs an editor. I do not reccomend it to people who get confused easily.

    Okay

    It's not a barn burner, but these are a decent read. The wtiting is only okay, but the premise is very cool. Made me wish a better writer had come up with the idea.

    Good writer needs good editor

    I enjoyed this tale of a post WWIII Earth dominated by vampire masters and their underling thralls; however, I was a little disappointed at the lack of good editing and typos throughout. The underlying plot & character building is great if you can get over the "rough draft" nature of this book.

    Not readable

    The book might be good once it was edited and rewritten. I couldn't get passed page 58. The story sounded good, however I felt like I was reading a ruff draft of a book, one that needs lots of editing. Not worth my time.

    Has Potential

    This book was kind of hard to get into based on the typos and all around bad editing. The most annoying thing is that it switches between characters very frequently but there is no break in the text so suddenly you are reading another scene and it is very confusing. Also it was unexpectedly more a war novel then anything with lots of descriptions of battle. But, I actually started to like the story a bit. Really this author just needs some help from an editor who can cut out all the overly excessive descriptions and extra characters and I think this would be a great story.

    mixed emotions

    I thought the storyline was very good, plenty of action and good plot; however grammar, punctuation, word use and sentence structure was terrible.
    I think this is a good writer who needs a good editor.

    Great idea, poor technique.

    I'm afraid I only got through a few pages of this book. Run on sentences and poor paragraph seperation made it too difficult to follow. I'm sorry to admit I did not feel the desire to continue.

    Great book

    I really enjoyed this book. I like the story line. It is a somewhat different take on the usual vampire story. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. I do wish these authors would get better proof reading. The grammar, punctuation and spelling are at times very appalling and make the book harder to read.

    Good book

    Despite the gramatical errors and jump from one scene to the next with no warning. I found it a good book and a good change from the other vampire novels.

    No thanks

    Could not make it more than a few pages. Run on sentences, typos, and just plain ol' boring writing. I love fantasy and vampire stories (twilight doesn't count), but just not this one!

    Loved it

    This is more of a novel about the enduring spirit of humanity using vampires to set the tone. It is very well written and a welcome change to the genre.

    Reader

    I enjoyed this set of vampire storys. Books 1 and 2 should be read to understand story line. Sad to say lots of errors. Makes parts of book hard to follow. Where are the proof readers?
