Initiation: A Vampire Thriller
Available for one week at a reduced price.
Aaron Niz (bestselling author of COMPELLED) takes on the vampire novel in this new and chilling tale of a man on the edge.
Brad Raines has always blended in with the crowd. So when he meets Rue Winthrop, a stunning brunette with a penchant for sex and designer clothes, he can't believe his luck. Suddenly, Brad is thrust into a world of money and power, for Rue's family is high-class all the way.
But with money and power comes deceit and secrets, and soon Brad realizes that Rue's "family" isn't a family at all, but a gang of vampires who, when banded together, are more powerful than the Gottis. And if Brad is to maintain even a semblance of his old humanity, he may have to sacrifice everything--and in the process, take on the most powerful family the world has ever known.
Initiation takes the reader on a frightening, seductive journey into the labyrinthian world of vampires and a family that operates with the ferocity of The Sopranos...with sharper teeth.
In the tradition of Salem's Lot and The Firm.

What fun
I'm a sucker for a good vampire novel and I found Initiation to be a lot of fun. The book covers vampire lore and the emotions associated with loss of humanity (standard vampire fare) but is told in a refreshingly irreverent style. My main complaint is that the second half of the story, especially the ending, felt rushed and u n underdeveloped.
