Review

". . . This fast, furious novel is a squirm-inducing treat." -- Publishers Weekly on The Turning

Product Description

My father always said fear was a weakness. Well, that's easy to say when you don't have to worry about vampire slayers or holy water. I hate fear, but undead life goes on. In the two months since I was attacked in the hospital morgue and turned into a vampire, I've killed my evil sire, Cyrus, fallen in love with my new sire, Nathan, and have even gotten used to drinking blood. Just when things are finally returning to normal--as normal as they can be when sunlight can kill you--Nathan becomes possessed. And then he slaughters an innocent human.

Now it's my job to find Nathan before the Voluntary Vampire Extinction Movement does, because they're just waiting for an excuse to terminate him--and anyone foolish enough to help him. But it gets worse. It turns out that Nathan's been possessed by one of the most powerful and wicked vampires alive--the Soul Eater. And who knows what vile plan he's concocted?

With the Soul Eater and my possessed sire on the loose, I have a lot to fear. Including being killed. Again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Niffty sequel, February 22, 2007

This review is from: Possession (Blood Ties, Book 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

All of the favorite and not so favorite characters are back. While the back of the book talks a lot about Nathan, his character does have much to do with this book other than to serve as a catalyst for many of the events that take place. Nathan begins behaving erratically, goes off a on bit of a rampage, and disappears. Max and Carrie, after looking at the evidence, determine that Nathan's behavioral changes are somehow connected to the Soul Easter. They fly to Madrid to seek a stay of execution from the Voluntary Vampire Extinction Movement. Meanwhile, a sexy werewolf assassin is assigned to the case, and Carrie starts having seriously vivid dreams about her first sire, Cyrus- the blood son of the Soul Eater. Max seeks to derail the assassination of Nathan while Carrie investigates her dreams.

This book is much better put together than the first. It flows much better and the characters are less scattered and random. It isn't very romance-like if that is what you are looking for in a book. I liked it for the characters, a couple in particular have become interesting but you'll have to read it yourself to see what I mean. Trying to avoid "spoilers".

Well.. to sum it up.. Im still quite pleased with the book. Its picks up right away in action. Where I might have prefered a lil more one on one time with Nathan an Carrie. But oh well. Im not going to give any part of the book away an you already can read the description.. so..
Im just writing to say that there is life after Twilight. And Im quite happy with this series..

Though the book has some notsohappy reviews, I found the book as good as the first one. Yes, Carrie is a romantic and is not your typical withoutlove vampire..and I find that pleasant.
A good read. Held me attention the whole way.
Could not wait to finish in order to get into the 3rd book (which by the way....is starting out to be really good too!)
