I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.Liana Cantacuzino is a member of the Little Council in Romania, a descendent of one of the old noble families.  This book takes place in a time when vampires and humans live together throughout the world.  However, Romania has managed to exile all vampires.  Until Liana is given the task of escorting Maximilien Hess, a thousand year old vampire, into Romania on secret business with the President.  Liana has no idea why the President allowed Max into the country and she is greatly disturbed by this change.  She is required to protect and provide for Max.  While obtaining blood for Max from the local hospital she meets Dr. Jesse Carver, a cardiologist whose sister was murdered by vampires.  Jesse observes odd happenings at the hospital he practices at and brings these happening to Liana's attention.  Suddenly, Romania doesn't seem as closed off from vampires as it should be.I loved this book.  I loved the new world created in this book.  I found the storyline to be unique.  I've never read a vampire novel like this.  I enjoyed all the characters.  Max made me laugh when he would call Liana with his "I'm bored.", he was like a little boy.  I was frustrated with her friends and fellow Little Council members, Rodica Ghica and Stefan Sturdza, because they didn't seem to be very helpful to Liana.  They pretty much left her to deal with Max on her own.  Jesse seemed more helpful then they did.  This book was very well written, the storyline flowed and it was easy to read.  Anyone that enjoys vampire stories will love The Impaler's Revenge.  I can't wait to read more.
