Now I am not a natural vampire reader. I had nothing against them, I just wasn’t interested. Until someone asked me to read their vampire book. I read it and enjoyed it but as I had only read that one book I had nothing to compare it to. For all I knew they all had much the same vampire lore and the only difference was the love part. So I needed to read something to compare it to. And it needed to be someone I trusted that actually wrote good books. So I came straight here and read Risking Immortality.
And I liked it too!
It tells an interesting story in that this book also has a completely different idea about vampires and where they come from/what they do etc.
It kept me interested in the story, wanting to know more and also it was centred around a relationship between a vampire (Amelia)and a human (Erin).
The main premise of this book centres around the idea that a vampire has to have met their mate and ‘bonded’ by their 30th birthday or they will go mad and need to be killed by their community. Amelia is 29 and has not met her mate. We watch her meet someone, realise she is human and try to solve the puzzle as to whether that will work for her and her mate – while they get to know each other – and of course Erin has to be told that Amelia is a vampire.
There is of course an epilogue – well, there is no ‘of course’ when a book is in a series – because usually you find out more in the next book!
But we see Amelia on her 30th birthday – and not all questions have been answered.
It is all good and kept me reading. I do now of course have to read the other 2 in the series – but that’s no hardship.
