The Bleed between the dimensions has been activated, drawing energy from the chaos unfolding around it, in order to allow Lucifer his passage to Earth. A team of unlikely heroes bands together to prevent the imminent Apocalypse--none more unlikely than their Champion, Wrath, a vampire created by the Devil, himself, for the purpose of vanquishing Heaven's archangels.
The more Wrath learns of his dark origins and the unique powers that they grant him, the more difficult the struggle against his inner darkness and psychopathic nature becomes. A day is fast approaching when he will have to choose between his friends and their mission to protect humanity...and giving in to his intended destiny, becoming the most powerful monster the world has ever known. Whatever he should choose--save the world or watch it burn--it will ultimately decide the outcome of the greatest war in the history of the cosmos.
Mr. Allen provides an interesting take on vampires, their origins, and what is coming. While I enjoy reading how different authors "spin" vampires (and this was a very interesting spin indeed), I found that Monster wasn't entirely to my taste.
I did a couple starts and stops on the book and couldn't quite connect. Maybe it was the timing, maybe even the phase of the moon. I will, of a certain, give Monster another try at a future date. Will see how it goes then.
