The Last Vampire 1 - 6 is simply the best vampire series ever written and I have read archives of vampire tales to compare it to. What really defines the series is the fresh twist on the vampire legend interwoven with frighteningly believable historic and religious legends. While it is a series, each book in the series manages to follow on intricately from the first one but manages to maintain the status of a novel in its own right. I grew up on these books and had read them twice over before even realizing that Christopher Pike was the author. The books are not appropriate for younger children as they are riddled with sex scenes and more subtle sexual innuendos and references but these are well placed to extenuate the lustful characteristics attributed to vampires in legend without sounding contrived and cheap. I wholly recommend this book to seasoned and aspiring fans alike.

There are mountains of vampire books around these days. Unfortunately, a lot of these titles are pure garbage, and not worth the paper they are printed on. Pike's, The Last Vampire, on the other hand, is one of those glorious, shining exceptions to the rule, that makes you appreciate how good the genre can actually be. Written in a very similar style to that of Darren Shan, The Last Vampire takes you on a first-person adventure, packed full of action and, unlike many teen novels, with a lead character who shows no mercy . . . most of the time. I can't say too much about this book as it will spoil the plot. But I can say one thing - buy it. Now. You won't be disappointed. All Darren Shan fans should be Pike fans, too. I'd swear these authors are joined at the mind.

Peace.
