"Vampire in Suburbia" is set in present-day Newark and New York City and follows protagonist Desmond Beckwith in the months following his most recent regeneration. It's not a terribly complex story; intentionally or not some of the author's choices make it easy to guess what's coming. There's also a bit of a formula that's developed, but it's difficult to discuss in a review without spoiling the book. But these are minor quibbles. The writing style is crisp and engaging and the characters speak with their own voices. If you enjoyed "Desmond" then you'll also enjoy its sequel.
