Two demon sisters. One demon throne. Longinus in the middle. All hell is about to break loose.
Present-day Scotland, America...and Hell
Longinus is bound to Lilith, the Queen of the Night, again. Once more, he is her champion, her slave - her Revenant. She makes him stronger and provides him with hellish vampire armour. She commands him to protect the fledgling vampire lady of New York from an army of horrific feral vampires. But to save Lady Veronica and her female coven, he must descend into the dark bowels of the city and confront the terrifying and insane queen of the ferals.
But, unfortunately, his real troubles are just beginning. A beautiful and seductive demoness has ensnared him in her plot to destroy Lilith; the queen of the ferals has captured his friend; an ancient lover has appeared with her heart set on revenge; Lilith's hideous daughters are baying for his blood; and the King of Demons wants to eviscerate him and devour his soul.
However, the past dictates the future, and terrible events that occurred in ancient Rome, during the French Revolution and in New York will influence his current mission and fate.
A wise wolf hides his teeth until he is about to attack, and it not long before Longinus is baring his fangs. He forms an uneasy alliance with a female vampire warrior, and, together, they fight to save the city from hordes of ferals and demons.
The final, epic battle will take place in Purgatory.
Betrayed, deceived and outnumbered, he will stand alone, like a wounded lion, against the legions of Hell.
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
There is truly no redemption for the damned.

Longinus succeeded in his quest to kill Cervenka, but instead of him dying too he was saved by the one person he was trying to avoid...Lilith. Now she has him right where she wants him, and she has a job for him to do. The feral vampire pack is threatening the New York coven, and Longinus is sent as protection. But it isn't long before he realizes the ferals aren't the real threat. Lilith's sister is back, determined to take Lilith down. And she plans to use Longinus to help make that happen. Stuck in the middle of a demonic war, with everyone against him, Longinus knows he must fight alone if he wants the chance to save the things that are important to him. But he also knows that no matter who wins, everything will change.
Longinus The Vampire: Redemption is the next chapter of Longinus' story. Alan Kinross takes us back to the dark and dangerous world he has created, and shows us more of the evil in our midst. Redemption is a worthy successor to the first Longinus book even though technically it is a standalone book. You don't have to read the first book to truly enjoy this one, but I recommend that you do. Its amazing. The skill that Kinross showed there is on full display here, and he has somehow managed to take it up a notch. You get to know the characters on a deeper level, and you feel like you know them personally. The detail brings everything to life clearly; you experience everything the characters do and feel like you are really a part of the story not just reading it. If you are looking for the darker side of vampires, this is where you need to be. From the first page to the last you will be completely absorbed into the darkness and on the edge of your seat.
The second book in the story of Lilith's creation, the Revenant, a vampire the Queen of Darkness created to hunt heretic vampires. With his special powers, the Spear of Destiny his weapon,Longinus the Roman centurion has one hell of a fight on his hands. This story is violent, sexy and full of fire and brimstone , as Longinus has to figure out which high Demon is tricking him. Not easy when they all are! This book I enjoyed more then the first one, and I liked that a lot. Not a whole lot of romance in this story but a large amount of good and bad regardless of what creature you may be. I hope there will be a third book, certainly possible. Was well written and very action packed, oh and did I say violent, just like a vampire book should be
This is yet another fresh take on the dark and steamy world of vampires! Longinus the Vampire: Redemption is the perfect mix of lusty romance and gory violence. Kinross manages to beautifully intertwine the underlying themes and the conflicting genres into one page turning, I just can't put this book down, kind of read.
The ending, as with all great books, offers a surprise that sticks with you for long after you flip the last page. If you've already read the first Longinus book then you absolutely MUST read this wonderful sequel. If you haven't read the first book, then go right now!
I liked the first so read the second. A lot of girl on girl action along with vampires and a enigmatic hero. Never saw the ending coming but I am not going to spoil that for you. A must for REAL vampire fans.
