I really enjoy a well written "vampire" story: I've read the Vampire Chronicles and even those "ugh" twilight books.

I say that to say this: the rulers stories are VERY VERY good. Yes the first one is probably the best (Merrick's story) but having read all three, and by the way I'm annoyed at the guy who only read the LAST book (this one) how dumb is that?

It's a interesting twist and a scientific/medical explanation for vampires, very different and fresh the story has well flushed out characters but quite honestly Merrick's story was the most well written and even in the later books you find yourself wanting more of his perspective


Highly highly recommend this!

I enjoyed this book featuring hemophages (vampires) and angels. I especially liked the interactions between the angel Michael and the hemophage Jenn and between the angel Uziel and the hemophage Chemosh.

Hmm third volume of a Vampire series. I have not read the others[return]But suspect they were better.Vampires have a "scientific" explanation[return][return]In this the author presumable looking for freash ideas introduces[return]a new race who think themselves angels.[return][return]Yet another Author who I wont be following closely. I am going to make a concerted effort to read more quality I Think.

The sequel to Rulers of Darkness and Daughter of Darkness. Cant really remember much just that I really enjoyed it and that it revealed the possible origins if the hemophages, introduced us to Merrick's (hero of the first book) father, an egyptian pharo and the hemphages nemises who seem to be angels...from what I can remember the story wasnt finished with this book but ive never found another in the series.
