I thought the first of these three books was a little hard to get into but after I got a feel for the story I had to continue.  The concept was different than most vampire stories.There were a few glaring weaknesses.  The strength and reactions of the vampires and thralls tended to be different at different points of the story - sometimes nothing could kill them and sometimes they died easily. The constant mental angst of the main character got a bit old.  The amount of physical abuse (broken bones, gashes and bullet holes) that characters could continue to survive (without adequate medical care) was way over the top.I liked the idea of the coated bullets that would kill the vampires and thralls.  The serum that kept the humans under control was an interesting idea, along with the long-term ramifications of using it.
