From the bestselling authors of Yesterday’s Gone, No Justice, and The Karma Police series comes Available Book Three, a character-driven reinvention of the vampire story.
Darkness is Spreading.
In the conclusion to the Available Darkness trilogy, the paths of vampire brothers John, Jacob, and Caleb converge in an epic battle for two worlds.
The vampiric Valkoer have been exiled to the Forgotten Kingdom on Otherworld in the Great Purge. The technologically advanced North, with help from The Hand of the Seven Gods, control their magick and keep the population of deviants, monsters, and slave traders contained. Jacob’s father, the Valkoer King, refuses to fight for their freedom.
But Jacob has collected the six crystals, and he threatens to unleash the power of the Last Great Wizard, triggering a war that will destroy Otherworld and enslave the humans remaining on Earth.
Caleb has reluctantly partnered with The Hand of the Seven Gods to destroy Jacob, while 11-year-old Abigail is searching for freedom from her violent past. When John returns in search of Abigail, he joins the forces fighting to save Otherworld.
Will the unlikely allies have the power to keep Otherworld safe from Jacob and the Valkoer?

The characters are back! It's like a reunion with old friends. This definitely more fantasy than the first two, but being on another world has that effect.
After a long break, the Available Darkness series is back for a final book to tie in the loose ends and complete the story.
Perhaps because of the time that passed between this book and the previous one, I didn't feel quite as invested in the story as I remember myself being last time. Also, the Otherworld is a completely different world, which adds to the feeling...
That said, I enjoyed the journey. And I love the way David Wright treats his characters: he might kill them, yet he always seems to feel for them, bringing up something positive even about the bad guys.
A good ending for a special series in the Collective Inkwell imprint's history.
