About The Vampire from Hell Rayea is a daughter of Satan, and a vampire. But she's on our side. According to Rayea, the oldest daughter of Satan, the origin of vampires started in Hell, and it started with her. Rayea isn't daddy's little girl, even if he is the most powerful fallen angel around. He wants her to take an active role in the family business. But she's not interested in his schemes for world domination. Instead she wants to spend her time shopping on the Internet, rescuing humans from a horrific eternity, and practicing martial arts with her seven foot hellhound. Then one day everything changes.
When you don't want to go into the family business and bucking your father can get you killed, what do you do?
If you're Rayea, daughter of Satan, you get the hell out of Hell!
Rayea discovers what life can truly be like with a trip to the House of G, Earth and plans to return to hell to face her greatest fear - her family.
Ms. Thomas paints a vivid picture of a young woman's trip in self-discovery while trying to do the right thing for those she's come to care deeply for. She chooses a different path from the one her father chose for her - will she survive?
The Vampire from Hell, Part 4 should answer the question.
I loved the concept of a fire shooting vampire who uses the internet to learn all she can about humans. She wants desperately to be one, but living among them is a good second choice. Her journey is fraught with conflict and puzzles she must solve because lives depend on her. Strong and smart mouthed, Rayea is wonderful heroine. I loved this book!
I originally had only read the first part of this series and didn't really intend on reading anymore of it because I felt the story was a little ridiculous and silly. However, when I saw that the full three parts were free on Amazon I decided to give it another try.
I'm actually really glad I did. Overall the story is still pretty cheesy but better than just reading the first part on it's own. As I stated in my review of the first part, there were a lot of things I found to be interesting and different in this story. Like how they reference heaven and hell in this book and how vampires, werewolves and angels are portrayed. There were enough parts of this book that really made me laugh out loud that I would definitely recommend this as a lighthearted quick read but do keep in mind that since this story is about vampires, God, the devil, and so on; there are some deep and sometimes disturbing situations.
It was okay world building. The characters were lacking in description. I finally understood what my English teacher said "Show don't tell." There was a lot of telling, but I couldn't picture it.
One would say that since I'm old enough I could have the ability to learn from my mistakes. That I'd, say, stop getting the free e-books since I have very bad experience with them. But no, once it says free I have to download it and what more - I have to finish it. I can't judge a book by only a couple of chapters, what if something really good comes? Except it usually doesn't come. And this was exactly what I fear most when I get a free version of anything. It was bad. I thought my judgement was clouded by the wrong time in my cycle but nope, we're not even close to that. So it must really suck. I tried to find the positives of this story but just couldn't. First of all, it says it's a part of blog and even has this link to it (spoiler alert, it's just the official author's homepage -> so it's not even supported on this level) but it doesn't feel like it's blog posts. It's just a good ol' boring first person narrative. And it's narrated very poorly. The situations are not described enough so that even thought you have this vampire created by her reptilian father, the lord of Hell himself, you don't get the ideas how it works down there. Then the narrator jumps from one moment to the other so quickly that it's confusing and I had no idea what the heck happened and why. Furthemore, I've googled it's this YA novel. My ass. Like, you've got this vampire or Satan's daughter first or whatever who is old enough to work in the office and bang whoever she wants and later she can have a hot scene with an angel and you want this to be read by the young ones? Sure she acts like one of them but the evidence shows she should be different. It's so effin' contradictory. Then there is this inner voice (*yours truly just gave herself a facepalm*) which sounds so bad in this already horrible narration. It makes stuff even more confusing. Wow, I've just made myself angry again. It was a waste of time and made me furious that someone can actually distribute this piece of ... bad literature. Save yourself the trouble and don't download it. It's enough that it made my couple of hours miserable. You don't need this.
