I really enjoyed Vampiris Sancti: the elf, which turned out to be a great deal for only 99 cents! The book takes us into a world intermixed with humans, elves, demons, goblins, vampires, and other magical creatures. Zyre, the elf, is a very unique character that gets herself in all kinds of trouble despite her wishes to remain unnoticed. By their own nature, elves are constantly causing mayhem so it isn't too surprising when trouble finds her.The author's portrayal of elves and other magical creatures is truly innovative and different than from what I have read before. Elves, for example, have four unique skills to help them survive the dangerous world. Elves appear to be distant and lack empathy but in truth they need to protect their potential fragile emotions. Elves are always looking for new thrills and the heroine Zyre is no different. It is very interesting to see the human world through the inquisitive and innocent eyes of Zyre. The world portrayed was fascinating and the story left me wanting to discover more about this world the author has constructed. I am looking forward to reading the other books as well.
