Product Description

If you run out of vampires to destroy at home, there's always work overseas...

Hollywood stuntwoman-turned-vampire-hunter Dawn Madison, along with her comrades, managed to wipe out the Los Angeles Vampire Underground-and uncovered not only her own dark family heritage but also a terrible truth about the man she loves. Now she's determined to find the next vampire lair, hoping it will help her to make more sense out of her life.

When a new Underground is found in England, Dawn and a vampire-fighting team are dispatched to carry the fight to the enemy in London. Dawn knows by now how deceiving appearances can be-and she is about to find out that it's not only the beautiful people of Hollywood who are willing to bargain with evil...

4.0 out of 5 stars Gutsy series...., September 24, 2009
By Deborah Wiley (Winter Haven, FL) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Vampires are stalking their prey in the London area and it's up to Dawn Madison and her associates to stop them. Dawn and Costin are adjusting to their new roles after the recent turn of events (see BREAK OF DAWN for more details) while Jonah is also exploring his boundaries. To fight the new vampire threat, Costin is adding a new team member, Natalia Petri. Will she be a threat to Kiko or an asset to the whole team? What new trials will the team face as they take on the London vampire underground?

A DROP OF RED starts a new story arc within the Vampire Babylon series. While a newcomer will miss nuances and the past history of the characters and their various relationships, the overall plot stands alone. In fact, the story seems to be veering in a radically different direction in this new story arc as the power is shifting and changing among the characters. Please note, however, that A DROP OF RED is part of a story arc and thus there are threads that are not resolved at the conclusion of the book.

Chris Marie Green's series is gutsy! The dilemmas the characters face are both supernatural and reality based, keeping the series grounded despite the very odd situations encountered in the books. Readers will be able to relate to seeing a friend struggling with addiction or a family coping with the dysfunctions resulting from the demise of a marriage. Chris Marie Green does a phenomenal job at incorporating such real world issues into the context of a world where vampires and other supernatural phenomenon can and do exist. Easily recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars vampire babylon series, September 20, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
A Drop of Red (Vampire Babylon)as a fan of Chris Marie Green this is just a spellbinding as the others. You get caught up with the continuing saga of Dawn and Costin/Jonah connection and you get more information about another duo of masters from when Costin was originally a vampire with a little twist to the connection between these two masters. Dawn's dad Frank is still in the picture being a better father as a vampire than he was as a human figure that. The burning question for this trio of Vampire Babylon is how long does the team stay together before either dying or for the females become one of the Friends? Dawn feels that she is destined to become the next Friend but how can she if her power is just developing. As usual we have to wait for the next book to get the answers

5.0 out of 5 stars A fast-paced novel of intrigue, investigation and danger, September 18, 2009
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This fantasy about a Hollywood stunts woman turned vampire hunter is a fine pick for any library where vampire fantasy novels are popular. It tells of Dawn, who has nearly single-handedly led the revolution against vampires in Los Angeles - uncovering her own dark family influences in the process. Dawn is exhausted - and facing a new vampire threat in England in this fast-paced novel of intrigue, investigation and danger.
