4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars 21 ratings

He rose from the dead ... His power grew over the ages. Enslaving minds and bodies through his religious cult and direct telepathic control, He promised eternal life in response for obedience.

"A unique underground classic" - San Francisco Bay Guardian

"A book of stunning originality" - Robert Anton Wilson

Set in the 1980's, J. G. Eccarius's novel follows a group of young Americans after they realize that drinking the Blood of Christ at communion need not be merely symbolic. Persecuted by vampires, they roam from Providence, Rhode Island into the Bible Belt and then out to California, speading their anti-vampire message.

"Stylistically wonderful ... classic Punk function" - Maximum RockNRoll

    Definitely a strange little book. Definitely intended to be sacrilegious and gleefully so. Definitely a punk rock classic. Not about Punk, but in the spirit of it.

    I'm not sure that this really counts as a novel - that would imply there is a clear plotline, that the characters have any discernible motivations, or that any of them hang around for longer than a chapter or two. It's filled with rebellious "countercultural" characters who nevertheless always seem to agree with each other; others who seem to have been introduced late in the book because the author realized he needed them around but didn't want to go back and rewrite earlier chapters; evil characters who don't actually seem to do much that affects whoever the protagonists are in that particular chapter; and numerous disjointed but generally foreboding sections. It's written just well enough for one to make it through, and seems to exist mostly so people can say "I read a book about Jesus being a vampire!"

    As others below note, this is a horribly written novel with a great premise: Christianity was founded by a vampire. Makes perfect sense: isn't communion just Jesus' followers drinking his blood? With tongue in cheek, Eccarius exploits the concept pretty well, then wanders off into a confusing "noble anarchists vs. the Pope and his vampire legions" plot, draining any momentum he's built as surely as a parish priest drains an altarboy of B negative. Eccarius should sell the concept to a competent writer-- what would Dan Brown do with this??

    Although there were some issues with translation to an e-book, The Last Days of Christ the Vampire was entertaining and worth the read. Any passages referred to in the story are as open and subject to interpretation as any other written word. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes vampire stories.

    There is no one main character. The People count; each individual chooses to participate and contribute; each contribution is vital. The People are the heroes. Plenty of twists and turns making for a good read. A beautiful portrayal of how beliefs and philosophies need not prohibit us from respecting and working with each other, and how to hand it off when the work is done.

    It's been years since I read this and I enjoyed it a lot. And, not only that, I mailed off to the publisher and bought the t-shirt. (Yes, there was one, and may still be. I`m not sure.) It was such a cool t-shirt that a friend absolutely, positively refused to give me directions to the Campus Crusade for Christ rally despite trying to get as many other people to go as possible. OK, I think the reviews make it clear. This is not a great novel. It would be much better, for instance, if it stayed focused on one or two characters instead of jumping around. OTOH, I really enjoyed it back in the day. You might too. Or, if you don't, it makes a good coffee table book if you have folks coming around visiting your coffee tables.

    The Most horrifying thing about the book is the way it is written, that alone cannot undo the good ideas presented.
