We dwell in its shadow every day. The best of us rise above it, the worst of us swallow it whole, but we all of us wade hip-deep through it, every moment of our lives.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I think of Jay Kristoff, I immediately think young adult fantasy series. As much as I love watching fantasy, I am much pickier with books. And to be honest, my preferred fantasy to read is horror, so when Kristoff first announced his upcoming vampire series, I nearly lost my mind. Even though I am picky with fantasy, I generally enjoy Kristoff&#8217;s books. But it wasn&#8217;t until he mentioned vampires that my eyes popped out of my skull. If you&#8217;re anything like me, you have a somewhat unhealthy obsession with these creatures. Of course, there are incredible books like <em>Salem&#8217;s Lot<\/em>, <em>Dracula<\/em>, and <em>Interview with a Vampire<\/em>, which I make it a point never to compare. But bottom-line, I will read almost any book with vampires.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mr. Kristoff promised to deliver vampires of the darker kind. No frills, cutesy crushes, sparkly skin, or victim vampires here. The vampires in this epic tale are old-world style, impervious to emotion, and not always pleasing to the eye. They are terrifying, immortal, and will end human life indiscriminately. If you think about it, there must be an immense burden on a being that lives forever, the same way year after year, indefinitely. Furthermore, humans here are just sustenance, a pack of creatures that exist only for the vampire&#8217;s taking. Doesn&#8217;t that sound darkly fantastic?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Empire of the Vampir<\/em>e is the first in a new series that has all the makings of one that will immediately hook you. The interview-style format is what reeled me in most. The vampire historian, Jean-Francois, chronicles the life of our main protagonist, Gabriel de Le\u00f3n. Gabriel was captured by the new vampire realm and they force him to recount his life. We follow him from a young age, bouncing between timelines. Of course, this is reminiscent of Anne Rice&#8217;s <em>Interview with a Vampire<\/em>, but only slightly. It works beautifully to set up a story that&#8217;s one hell of a bloodlust ride.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gabriel is the last of the Silversaints, a brotherhood of warriors sworn to protect the church and all that is holy against the evil lurking in the shadows. But as the sunrise diminished twenty-seven years ago, the brotherhood was no match for these creatures. The vampires took over the world, much like a game of Risk, and now most of humanity is gone. Vampires no longer have to hide in the darkness because the darkness is all around. They finally have their empire.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we look back into Gabriel&#8217;s life, we learn his true origin and how he fits into this epic saga. We visit two timelines, one where he&#8217;s young and hopeful, and another where he&#8217;s jaded and bitter. We meet longtime friends, past lovers, and arch enemies. Gabriel\u2019s need to be the greatest swordsman, the constant questioning of faith, and the journey to find the Holy Grail is what defines him. Simply put, I adore him. Kristoff writes primo dialogue, as Gabriel has an intelligent wit and a wry way of speaking. He&#8217;s captivating, with the heart of a fallen hero, and I ate it all up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The prose sometimes has a flair for melodramatic, but I still found myself mesmerized. Kristoff&#8217;s visceral writing style, vivid imagery, and knack for the macabre made me swoon. To write such scenes in an ominous setting, with blood and mayhem everywhere, and make it beautiful, is true talent. The illustrations by Bon Orthwick are masterfully done and compliment Kristoff\u2019s writing perfectly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, don&#8217;t misconstrue me, this is not what I consider horror. This is an adult fantasy series with horrific elements. Although I&#8217;ve somewhat enjoyed our author&#8217;s past series, <em>Empire of the Vampire<\/em> takes the proverbial cake. It&#8217;s excellent, and I am praying to the vampire gods for the next book to come soon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Hi, my name is Janelle!
