Review: Prophecy is a Mind Killer
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 03 7, 2013
The worst things about prophecy are they are supposed to come true.  How is another matter & can you stop it?  For Patrick, the mute, the killer of his own race of vampires, his hopes and dreams lie in the person of Sophie, who struggles on her own.  Between the beginning of prophecy and its end will lie a lot of hurdles and those interested parties claiming their own share of the fame.  These beings include Sentinels looking to reclaim life, werewolves hunting down one of their own, and those with grandiose dreams of creating a whole new vampire race.I ran across Amy Cross beginning with Asylum and following that, Ghosts.  Each of these "complete" books hold a series of eight complete chapters or episodes, if you prefer in television parlance.  Each one will include elements and clues for the grand finale.  Only some of the characters will survive and appear in the final chapter.  The endings are hard to predict.As to Dark Season itself, it deals with Patrick, the final vampire, who is a cross of caring and vicious.  He is a purveyor of prophecy and a tool who must follow it to its final end.  Remember this, prophecy is meant to be elusive and ultimately experienced.Check out Dark Season or Asylum or Ghosts.  For those who fall in love with her writing as I have, the others are beckoning as much Count Dracula's hypnotic hand gesture.  You know the one I mean.  Johnny Depp used it in the uhhhhh remake of Dark Shadows.  Consider Dark Season for your own kindle.
