2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed January 30, 2012

By Kimberly Foster

I really enjoy this series and have read all the books thus far. My problem was it was to short and it answered no questions just left you in suspense. I thought this was a short story about Dillon and Gray to tide me over until the new book was released. Last thing 2.99 for three chapters that leaves me in suspense this was a prologue that should have been placed in the new book. I really am disappointed. I'm confused how anyone can think this was acceptable.

Our Review [by Michelle L. Olson - LITERAL ADDICTION's Pack Alpha]:
I adore Mark of the Vampire. It's no secret. Having this eSpecial was just what I needed to tide me over until the release of Lucian's book, Eternal Captive, in February. What I didn't expect was for this novella to be so explosive.
Eternal Blood throws the reader into the mind and life of Gray just as he's starting his work with the Impures for the cause. After an unusual twist of Events that literally had me gasping, Dillon comes to the rescue and we're treated to the sarcastic banter that we've come to love from these 2 characters, only more intense because there is loads of sexual chemistry.
Laura definitely knows her stuff! It was hot, action packed, and dramatic and left you wanting so much more; in short, an amazing teaser and nibble to hold us over until Eternal Captive in February.
LITERAL ADDICTION gives Eternal Blood 5 skulls and recommends it for all Mark of the Vampire fans! If you haven't picked up Laura's Mark of the Vampire series yet we highly suggest that you shuffle it to the top of your TBR list ASAP and get reading, because there is a doozy of a book coming next month!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gray's new life January 21, 2012

By Victoria Sloboda

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

Nice quick read. I'm looking forward to a full length Gray book. After this we need one. Laura lets a few secrets go in this novella. Like what Gray and Sara really are ;). I'm still trying to figure out what Dillon has going on in her head. There has to be a reason why she's there for Gray. Can't wait for ETERNAL CAPTIVE maybe Laura will give us more Gray info :).
Gray has found the real Impure resistance. He is thought to be the fourth puzzle piece. Gray has to decide if he will take this on or not. Excellent read.
