Surpisingly clever and fun! This book has a good dose of humor and enough action to make it a good summer read.

Ugly cover aside, this is a badly written book. It's full of typos, bad grammar, run on sentences, and hit or miss punctuation. The author gives you no reason to like him or care that he was picked on in high school. Also beware that said author is known to threaten, harass, and send death threats to anyone who doesn't agree with his opinion of how great he thinks his writing is.

A great vampire book! F. Paul Wilson makes them scary again, and gives humanity little hope against the creatures. Best of all? NO sparkly, boring vampires in sight!

I finally picked up this book to read after having watched the TV series. I loved this book!

The characters have depth and are interesting. The magic makes sense and has real consequences. There is plenty of humor and a well plotted mystery that made me go "ohhh...why didn't I see that?" by the time all was said and done.

This book builds on the tension letting your imagination start to run wild before the vampires even truly appear. It brings back the old vampire myths and legends, and builds upon them. These vampires don't sparkle, they aren't remotely human, they don't want to love you. They want to feed on your blood. This book brings the scary vampires back.
