Doran Payne is a vampire who’s not only retained a caring heart and most, if not all, of his soul in his thus far one-hundred-plus years of life, but he’s done the forbidden – he’s fallen in love with a mortal woman and she with him. His life being forfeit by the ancients who made him, Doran sets out to tell the entangled tale of his life for two reasons: to put an end to the morbid fascination that many humans have with all things vampiric and undead, and to somehow save the lives of those he has come to love. With honest words and the deepest of personal perspective, Doran weaves for us the vampire’s life. In artfully dispelling the lies and romanticized half-truths, this all-too-human vampire gives us a new mythology, new eyes from which to view their hungered existence and eternal sanguisuganal life. Allow yourselves the seductive pleasure of its well-honed language and the immortal emotion that drove the vampire to pick up the pen. Can a vampire love, and if it does, can that love stand the truest of tests – time?

This review is from: Sanguisuga (Paperback)
I found the book intriguing and mesmerizing. It's not your typical vampire book and that should be celebrated. You are made to feel as if you're in the book with the characters as you read their journey. I can't wait for more books from this author, write fast please! Sincerely, A fan for life

Vampires, with a different spin,

This review is from: Sanguisuga (Paperback)
If you have read any of the Anne Rice books, you know they were different. However Sanguisuga is remarkable in so many ways. Kind of a myth buster. "Sorry boy the cross ain't going to help you." not a quote from the book but mearly a touch of what you may not expect. It is also a love story, a coming of age story. With twists and turns, I didn't want the book to end. I am a slow reader and I finished it in less than 3 days. If you enjoy Vampires try this book you won't regret it.
Rob Walkan: got this as a gift from the person who's account this is.

This book puts Anne Rice to SHAME!,
By Darius Layne "Darius" (PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sanguisuga (Paperback)
That's what I said! Interview with the Vampire? Forget it, Sanguisuga is the book that Interview "should" have been. the main character Doran Payne could eat Lestat for breakfast. Christi-Anne has pulled off an amazing feat with this novel:
She truly has written one of, if not the best gothic vampire novel since the master himself, Bram Stoker. And why shouldn't a vampire love? In a genre that is so over run with the same old story told over and over again, Christi-Anne breathes new life into it. Think Legends of the Fall meets Interview with the Vampire. The is the closest comparison I can make. Such an amazing, epic adventure of one vampire coming to terms with just who and what he is. All the while find what he desires the most: true love. All I can say is this: Buy this book! Christi-Anne is sure to be the next big thing well in any genre. Her words just flow off of the pages and into your heart. B.P.
