Helpful Score: 4

This book is actually a re-release of Christopher Pike's "The Last Vampire" teen series from the mid-nineties. This book includes the first three (of six) books in that series. They were relaxing quick and easy reads, which I enjoyed. Sita (or Alisa, as is her modern name) is a 5,000 year old vampire and the story is told from her point of view. I thought each story became progressively more interesting and enjoyable, as Pike weaves flashbacks of Sita's past into it along with some twists and turns. As are a lot of vampires, Sita is not a monster. I do think Sita seemed to kill unnessesarily at times, which bothered me, although the killing isn't very graphic. Pike seems to write tastefully.
I recommend this to anyone who enjoys vampire stories.
