I'm a huge fan of Scott Nicholson. He's one of the best horror writers I've read. I'm not familiar with JR Rain. I wonder if these books were more aim towards to YA crowd. The characters I enjoyed immensely. Spider is a dark, broody kind of guy/vampire but his sense of humor and sometimes witty repartee was comical and fun. You also have Parker who approaches Spider in the first book with a 'little problem'. Being the all around good guy he is Parker finds herself with her man. Too many secondary characters to mention but they each do they're job. The premise of the story is quite good as well. So why the three stars? It just seemed to be lacking in places, I'd get a little bored in spots. Great writing maybe just not the best use of plotting out the story. Or as I mentioned earlier if this is geared for the YA genre then that would explain a lot as well. I can't honesty put my finger on what I thought was missing. It's a lively story, quick read, and great characters. Come spend a few hours with the wittiest vampire/guy around!
