Rating: Summary: What a good book! Review: Vampire Hunter is wonderful work of vampire fiction! Charles is a wonderful char of what a vampire should be. Yes he is a vampire, and he has killed, but he feels remorse and shame for what he has done. When a research team is making a docoumtary on the Titanic, they release Charles (the vampire) from his watery grave. When they do that, nobody can survive. The problem is that one of the people Charles kills, the womans husband is hell bent on revenge to find him, and rid the world of a vampire. I don't want to give to much away, but trust me when I say this is a good read. The Characters. Charles the vampire. What a great char. He's smart, savvy everything a "Gentleman" should be. It was a hoot to see how Charles has to adapt to a "modern woman". How they talk and how they dress. Desiree. This girl is prue evil. She wants to show Charles how evil she is, but has no idea what it's like to be a real vampire. Some of the things she does is horrible. She provides some wonderful tension for Charles. Richard. He is bent on revenge b/c Charles kills his wife. There are some interesting symbolic qualites that Richard has that can be seen with Ahab from Moby Dick. He's more than willing to work outside of the law to meet his objectives. Over all this book is pretty good. I do admit that it may start off a bit slow, but as the story moves on, it get's more interesting. I highly suggest Romkey's book, I, Vampire. Vampire Hunter will not disappoint those of you who like vampire fiction. If you read this book, you won't be sorry.
Rating: Summary: back on track Review: when i first read romkey's I, Vampire, i was so impressed. here was a vampire book that was different from most, and outstandingly done. but as the "series" went on, the novels started to get weaker and weaker, but now, finally, romkey has written a novel as good as his first ones.
