Vampire Vacation:Very good and exciting new series. I can't wait to read the rest. I enjoy the subtle complexity of the main character. I also liked how her life and history were slowly, appropriately, and methodically laid out. All of the main characters in this book were well defined and developed. A gold star for the author.The Hunt:The book is not from one perspective, but changes off among several characters from Vivian's seethe. On a general principle I don't like it when books are written this way as often it can be confusing for unsophisticated readers, but I do have to admit the author did a great job handling it. I also have to admit that it added alot to the overall story as the reader was able to have insight to thoughts and motivations of the main characters that comprise the seethe without having actions shaded by Vivian's interpretation of what she sees and hears. For example, I so want to see Jon find someone, want to learn more about Drew's changing and history, and Asa also has peaked my interest. So to sum up, another great book.Big Game:Ok, I know the author considers this to be her best book in the series and I have to agree. Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed the previous books as well, but reading this one had me more on the edge of my seat. I sincerely hated to have it end. The revelation of who is behind the tribunal attacks was interesting and I can't wait for the next book. I like the main characters more and more and enjoyed seeing a new side to Rafe that I expected based in his acceptance of Vivian and hints at his own past. Drew really appears to be torn between his past Victorian human self and that of being a vampire however he does appear to be steadfast in his support of the seethe. I do wonder what's up with Cy though. Like I said, can't wait until the next one.
