Fallen was a quick and easy read. I haven't read any of the books in The Transformed series and with there already being three books after this one, I think Fallen gives a nice bit of background into the very beginning of the story. Because it's a prequel there is really no need to have any previous knowledge of the characters or the story.Fallen is told from Samantha's point of view. Samantha is a vampire. A vampire who wants to rule the world along with her long time vampire partner Vince Moretti. Sent on a mission by Vince, she is to attend school and check up on student Alexis. Samantha has no interest in humans other than them being a source of food. She loves nothing more than to feel the fear in them before she feasts on their blood. She is a vampire through and through. What she doesn't count on is meeting Tanner and falling in love. How will Vince handle this news and will Samantha be able to rule world whilst being in love with a human?I really enjoyed Fallen. Samantha was a character that took a little while to like. She has such disregard for humans. But as her feelings for Tanner developed there was a real change in her. I loved how protective she was of Tanner. Tanner was a character that doesn't have an easy existence. He is bullied at school, so he doesn't have many friends. The relationship between him and Samantha developed nicely and I enjoyed the time that they spent together.The ending has really left me eager to continue on with the story and find out what happens next for these characters.3.75/5 Stars.
