The first bite at a world I hope we see more from

CH Clepitt has a knack of making you want to read more.
Lineage - subtitled A Beginning - does just that. This is a tale of vampires and vagrants, in which a down-on-her-luck girl who makes bad choices in boyfriends ends up caught between gang bosses and something a whole lot more dangerous - and the key to her survival lies in, fittingly enough, her blood.
For Emma, the lead character, has an ancestry - a lineage - that marks her out as more special than she believes herself to be.
It's a touching tale - full of neat little touches, such as the explanation for why vampires don't go out in daylight being that natural sunlight shows them as they would look at their true age.
The end - without offering spoilers - gives a launch point from which I want to know more, and look forward to finding out where this tale will go next.
It's only a short story - probably about 5,000 words or so - but great for a quick read for the bus or train.

Intriguing!

Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2018

Down on her luck and facing more complications than a young woman needs, Emma bursts into the reader's consciousness and quickly establishes herself as a likeable and loyal character. Having lived on her wits for some time, Emma takes the challenges she faces in her stride, although not terribly wisely.

Gudytha brings a new dimension to Emma's life, and the events which bond them raise questions that intrigue the reader and make them want to know far more than what is told in this short story. The humour is dark yet vivid, which really appealed to me as a reader.

Not only do I enjoy this writer's style immensely, I definitely want to read on and know more of this story. I plan to read the next short in this series very soon.

Creepy fun

This is a quick, fun read. It's complete as it is, but I hope we get to see more of this world. There's both familiar and new territory to explore with these vampires. A little bit of creepiness, plenty of humor, and characters I'd like to know better. Good story!

Charismatic team of characters

Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2017

I enjoyed reading this short story. It was scary and funny at times. While the idea of vampires is not new in itself, I found the theme very well executed. The action and dialogues were great. I'd love to read more stories featuring the same team of characters. They were full of charisma, all of them.

Great intro into an intriguing vampire series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 24, 2017

Recap: Homeless Emma loses her boyfriend to drugs and gains an unusual, long-lost family member who helps her wipe out the cartel responsible.

Review: I enjoyed reading this short story because of the strong characters and the level of intrigue - you know enough to understand what's going on but there are various hints and suggestions that there is so much more to learn. The violence and injuries are believable and the standard vampire tropes are challenged which in itself is fresh and interesting. Looking forward to finding out more!
