As a fan of paranormal stories I have read many vampire books so when I started The Nightlife Omnibus I hoped Travis Luedke was going to offer me anunconventional take on the genre. When the 'master' of this story was unveiled as a woman I knew the author and I would be friends!I enjoyed the fact that throughout the first three Nightlife stories Travis Luedke allows his reader to experience a side of the cities Michelle and Aaron visit; in the case of New York it is the police corruption; in Las Vegas the casinos and partying and in Paris the architecture.Michelle and Aaron are complicated characters and although Aaron opens up to Michelle about his family in the first installment of Nightlife, he still has a dual personality, hiding his 'predator' self from everyone.Michelle keeps secrets about her history from Aaron too and it is not until The Nightlife Paris that she is honest about herself in a long monologue. Here the reader feels sympathy for Michelle and all she has lost and Travis Luedke allows us to connect with her on a deeper level, preparing us for the coming events.I like the way in which the author is so bold with his sex scenes; sex is often used by Michelle and Aaron as a means of expressing anger and passion as well as feeding and Travis Luedke's writing is able to reveal to vampire's eroticism and violence.Although I really enjoyed the three Nightlife stories I was disappointed by Blood Slave. I look forward to reviewing The Nightlife London soon.I received this as a review copy, but this has had no influence on my opinion.
