This review is from: Tribes of the Vampire: The Jaded Hunter (Book Two) (Paperback)

Jaden is half human, half vampire. Tyr is a Dark Knight for the Vampire Council. Jaden's mission in life is to destroy vampires that feed off humans. Tyr's mission is to destroy humans that kill vampires. Jaden is a very strong female character and Tyr is exceptional. This was my first Michelle Pillow book and I absolutely loved it. It had great action scenes, a wonderful love story and had me sitting on the edge of my chair finishing it. I highly recommend this book.

This review is from: Tribes of the Vampire: The Jaded Hunter (Book Two) (Paperback)

This book goes away from the woman being the most beautiful and so instantly becoming the vampire's choice for a mate. In this book, the heroine is just as complexly drawn as the vampire. It is her storyline that makes a twist by her wanting to be the one to end it all due to the monotony of constant killings, especially the mistaken killing of her father. Through this decision, she meets one of the oldest vampires, who is one of the protector's of the race.

I like that both characters have a strong strengh of character in that they are trying to do what they feel is right and honorable, even if it isn't always what they want personally. This is where the conflict in the book springs from. It also provides a stronger connection btwn the characters then the basic "you are the only one for me since I set eye's on you". Those books can still be entertaining, but this one is a better read. There is the standard frustration due to not always having open, honest communication between the characters, but that is common in many of these stories and I found that it didn't take away from my overall enjoyment of the book.

In this book you also meet the governing council of vampires, which is mentioned in book one and book three. The council reminds me of the typical bored vampires, however the emphasis here is how hard of a time living that long can be and that it can be hard to constantly adapt to the constant change going on when you just want to cling to what's familiar.

I can't believe I'm the first to review this book on Amazon....Anyway, I loooooved it. There was just enough vamp lore, romance and action going on. Very emotional read too, couldn't finish it until early morning. However, hopefully this author is going to follow up with this thread of the story (what will become of Tyr and Jade) as I saw that her next book in this series follows a different thread. If you love Vamps, Christine Feehan, Sherri Kenyon then this book is for you.
I would give it 6 stars if I could...
