Rating: 4 out of 5

Pretty discouraging, if this is the way it's going to happen...with several bangs and then many whimpers, but it could very well be, except for the vampire part, of course.  Emma is portrayed as a woman who isn't aware of the inner depths of courage and resourcefulness within herself until she's actually forced to draw on those reserves.  She does what she has to, sometimes with regrets, sometimes eagerly.  She also is no born killer as the other vampires are, but retains her conscience, determined not to take a human life neither for the sake of killing or as food.  Matthew is her opposite as a hunter and tracker, a man raised on the reservation and in tune with the spirit world which guides him through much of his journey.  The emotions they feel as they view  the destruction of the world they knew, the loss of their loved ones and their strength in each other is portrayed in words which will strike deep emotion.This isn't your ordinary vampire novel.  No handsome aristocrats here, no beautiful damsels in love or distress, but the ending will pluck a pang of disquiet and poignancy from your heart.This novel was supplied by the author and no remuneration was involved in the writing of this review
