I have tired of the old 'vampire' stories; having read quite a few over my 60+ years and this one was just what I was looking for. Simon had more personality than most vampires are given and seemed more intelligent[and just a bit more human] When you first look into reading a vampire story, you look for the scare, then after while, the story has to go somewhere and be more developed. This story was way too short, and the scare came too soon. I wanted more 'cat and mouse' developed between the main characters, showing  more of the compassionate side of the vampire and and the harshness of the human. I plan on reading the next book to see what Simon is doing next, but I am hoping the author continues with his first view of Simon and shows how he interconnects with us humans. He can't kill all of them. Even so, I found the book to be well written and certainly worth the time spent reading it.
