From the Publisher

In the small college town of Morganville, vampires and humans lived in (relative) peace-until all the rules got rewritten when the evil vampire Bishop arrived, looking for the lost book of vampire secrets. He's kept a death grip on the town ever since. Now an underground resistance is brewing, and in order to contain it, Bishop must go to even greater lengths. He vows to obliterate the town and all its inhabitants-the living and the undead. Claire Danvers and her friends are the only ones who stand in his way. But even if they defeat Bishop, will the vampires ever be content to go back to the old rules, after having such a taste of power?

Another Great Installment!!!!

2 months ago

I don't know what's left to say, once again this was another installment that did NOT disappoint...Page one right until the end has you grasping the books, leaving you never wanting to put them down. I absolutely love the characters along with the plot that just keeps getting better and better, again, this book was fast-paced and filled with non-stop action. This series has absolutely everything you could ask for; action, romance, mystery, revenge, Vampires (evil and good), bravery, strength… + read more

Claire and Michael are working for Bishop, Eve's on the other side, and Shane's back in the cage, never a dull moment in Morganville. I highly recommend this series, it's very good. 30/1000

Still a fan but not my favorite *spoilers*

I really do enjoy this series but this book had me totally torn :(. I really loved the new "Development" with Claire's relationship, and think those parts are great. I also really enjoyed how they beat out Bishop...very clever. BUT....The vampire computer..hmm...that is a bit weird, and couldn't really get into that much. Especially since anyone who offered her blood seemed to get her to do what they wanted. I liked the twist about Jason, however felt Dean's character left me like HUH...So… + read more

Well they’re back folks…this is the sixth part of the Morganville Vampires series…and it shows. Yes all our favourite characters are there but this time they really do seem to interact with each other in a much better way. The improved tougher and more mature version of Claire our main character is back and this time she is...get ready for this ....finally seventeen. So miss goody two shoes isn’t as nice as before but still as smart. Now that for me brings the story up a notch. Shane also grows… + read more

Another Kick-butt Edition

8 months ago

This is the sixth book in the Morganville Vampire series, and Claire finally turns 17! It’s about time, is all I can say to that. So Rachel Caine decides to change it up a bit in this novel. First off, this story doesn’t start exactly where the last one finished. There is a small gap, but the time lost is quickly filled in with a few sentences or so. Second, the book doesn’t end on a giant cliffhanger. It leaves you with the feeling that more is to come, but after all the anxiety in this… + read more
