The Last Vampire

A Supernatural Post-Apocalyptic Thriller (The Blood Armageddon Series, Book 1)

The Last Vampire: The Blood Armageddon Series

It's been 15 years since the world fell apart under the onslaught of a vampire horde. Nothing is the same. The suckers own the night, and survivors of the apocalypse move about only by day. Earth has been reduced to ashes as evil has taken it over piece by piece. Few have been able to stand against the onslaught.

Except for a rare breed of warriors seeking to eradicate the scourge that plagues Earth.

They call themselves Mortal Makers. And Declan is the best. A former member of SEAL Team Six, Declan uses his skills to track down and eliminate as many vampires as he can. On a quest to find the Source, the "vampire zero" that started the Event in the first place, Declan uses an unorthodox method to attract suckers right to him before he kills them.

But as he travels further west on his mission, he finds that not all of the evil left in the world exists only at night.

Sometimes the living are worse than the undead.

Unique take on Vampire stories

I really enjoyed this one. The characters are well written, the story is exciting, and the setting was a unique one for me. I like when authors take a different spin on known tropes. Having Vampires be out in the open, and having caused the downfall of society makes for excitement from page 1 through the final moments of the story. I am hoping to pick up the next installment very soon.

Vampires take over

A gritty, post-apocalypse story full of drama and action. While I understood Declan's motivations, I found myself not liking him much. Which was fine — I don't think that he would care that I didn't like him. :) He was very mission focused, and did whatever he had to in order to accomplish his goals. Very ends justifying means.
Alex Hyde-White's narration had just the right tone for Declan.

Good storyline

interesting twist in the last few chapters I really enjoyed this one. Looking forware to book 2

The Last Vampire vs the Last SEAL

standard take of stoic survivor, this time a SEAL, who roams the wasteland of post apocalyptic US eliminating the vampires who took his family. Akin to laconic Eastwood characters, not unafraid to use the locals to get to his prey.

except the prey doesn't follow Vampire rules laid out by Bram Stoker and the prey knows he is coming.

Hooked me in on First Page

This book reminds me of how the beginning of the Walking dead but instead of Zombies it is Vampires. It's a great story of a soldier who came home and his story of his family becoming these Vampires and he becomes a hunter to kill off these Vampires. That most of his men from the military have all been killed. He is trying to find the man Vampire who started it all. The trip through it all keeps you interested and affects with your emotions.

I received this book for free in exchange for my honest opinion.
