Review: Great conclusion for a fabulous trilogy. I enjoyed every minute spend reading the three books! The final move (wich I won't say nothing)is great, and you can't even imagine it, and think if it's true or not. Great!

Summary: THE RED DEATH BURNS UP THE PAGES
Review: This is an amazing series of books, for fans of the World Of Darkness or just fans of Vampire stories. It is definately a page-turner. The concept of the Dark Messiah and a vampire that contols fireis wonderful! And set in my hometown at that. Mr. Weinberg definatly did his research on DC. I am currently rereading this series for the 5th time. It will keep drawing you back every time. Relearning the secrets is half the fun!

Summary: Finally, an ending!
Review: This is the third book of a trilogy; the first two, "Blood War" and "Unholy Allies", are interesting stories (or, more accurately, story fragments) with good, fast-moving action plots and compelling characters. Unfortunately, they both suffered from a lack of an ending, or even a reasonable stop at a plausible break-point. Call me old-fashioned, but I believe that a book, even if it is part of a series, should have a beginning and an end. This series really should have been written as one very large book. As it is, I will give the series as a whole four stars, but no individual book in the series can be rated higher than three stars; how can a book be rated higher than that, when it isn't a full story in its own right? This one at least has an ending, but it has no proper beginning; I suspect that someone reading it without reading the previous books would be quite lost.Further, I felt that the finally-revealed secret of Dire McCann's relationship to Lameth was unsatisfying, and that the characters were more than a trifle overpowered. Nonetheless, I do recommend the series, but only as a whole. If you aren't willing to read all three books, don't bother with any of them. None of them stand on their own.

Summary: Way too top heavy
Review: This whole series of books was written like a comic book. I feel like the author tried to target 13 year old boys with this style of writing. One of the great appeals of the World of Darkness is that you never know what's going on around you. The methuselahs are supposed to be shady characters whom you never see and may not actually exist. In these books, almost a dozen of them are running around. The younger vampires are more common than normal people in the story. The characters were often one dimensional and stereotypical. If you want to buy a comic book with no pictures, get this series. Otherwise, take a pass.
