Fang-tastic!,

This review is from: The Vampire Within: The Beginning (Paperback)
All you can say after finishing this book is "WHOA!". The Vampire Within is a wicked book from cover to cover. I loved it and I can't wait to pick up the next in the trilogy! There are small stories that play throughout that are all a part of the BIG picture.I liked the wicked humor here and there and the characters really pull you into the hell they are about to be apart of. This book is not that gruesome but,Drew Silver writes in a way that make the reader use their own imagination to complete the whole picture. That can be the scariest part of all! You will not be disappointed in this vampire story. It is well written and flows nicely...kinda like the blood through your veins! One of my favorite ways to describe these characters is in the book itself: Emily say that the group was like a twisted version of the Justice League. How great is that? After reading this book, you will set a new standard for vampire books! I know I am hooked! This book will definitely be a keeper. Great story Drew!

This review is from: The Vampire Within: The Beginning (Paperback)
Instantly you'll feel like you're watching this on the big screen and you'll get to know the characters so well, you'll think they're right there with you. Drew Silver has mastered the art of character development and this story will pull you right in to the middle of all the whirlwind events that take place. It's one of those books that when you finish, you'll count the days to the next release! Don't pass this one up!

This review is from: The Vampire Within: The Beginning (Paperback)
I have to admit that I put this book down 2 or 3 times with the thought of not finishing. The beginning is a bit slow. Perhaps my expectations were pretty high based on the reviews the series has gotten and I didn't feel the first hundred pages or so were working for me. I have to admit that I don't remember this happening to me before but after I put it down (for good, I thought) before finishing, I found myself continuing to think about it and wonder what was going to happen. Actually, I thought the first third was accomplishing little other than putting random people together in different situations. And it didn't help any that much of the action was transpiring in a football milieu--as I'm not a fan. In any event, I was having a difficult time discerning a common thread.However, after about a hundred pages, it grabbed me by both sides of my shirt collar and slapped me twice. I was hopelessly addicted and, of course, could not devour it with sufficient speed. I now have the other two in the trilogy on my bedside table which will also, at some point in the not too distant future, be consumed as the bon bons I suspect they are. It's true that vampire fiction is one of my great guilty pleasures. Well, at least good vampire fiction. And although I prefer such fiction with a little more sensuality and less brutality, this did not hinder me from embracing the fun. Tres recommended.
