Rating:  Summary: Gripping Review: I got all the series of the books together and read them all within one week. Not only is this a great series, it also continues throughout six books. I'm a big fan of Chris Pike and I think this is the next best to Interview with a Vampire. I think everyone loves a vampire with a heart and these books did not disapoint. I loved the story of her ancient past from India and Egypt. Fantastic. What amazes me and makes me curious is how Mr Pike knew all about the 'correct' names of certain Gods in India? Everything he wrote about had rings of facts in them. These stories normally are heard in Hinduism...Did Mr Pike research the history?Maybe, but nevertheless great books, I was very sad at the end... Thanks Mr Pike for these great books, please keep writing. I have been reading your books for 9 years now, so don't stop.
Rating:  Summary: Ooh . . . . Review: I read all the books in this series, but for some reason this one stuck in my mind the most; I don't know why. Sita, after living 5,000 years as an immortal vampire, has finally reached a dream she never thought would happen; the alchemist's experiment (in book three) worked, and now she is finally a human, mortal. Maybe now, she thinks, she can finally have a daughter, possibly one like Lalita, the daughter she left the night she became a vampire. When Ray, whom she thought dead, shows up, she thinks she can finally achieve that dream, especcially when she becomes pregnant, and finds a new friend, Paula, who also happens to be pregnant. But the baby grows at an unnatural speed, the birth is painful. Sita names the child Kalika, not Lalita "she who plays" but instead "she who kills." And it seems she is right. The child grows fast, and craves blood. Sita returns to her old ways to find blood for her demanding daughter. And Ray seems so . . . different, not the old Ray who cringed at the sight of blood, now he tries to make sure Sita is feeding their daughter. When Kalika is physically twenty, Sita slowly begins to understand who her daughter is. And just what Kalika wants with Paula's child, the strange boy with pale blue eyes whose blood has the power to heal . . . I know that most people say this book isn't as good as the rest, but I think it is. It just stuck in my mind, and I've read it over and over. It is good, but is a little confusing at parts. But, read it if you've read the first three.
Rating:  Summary: The Last Vampire 4: The Phantom Review: I really liked this series, and this book was one of the highlights in reading the whole series. I didn't read the series in the order that you are supposed to. I read the third book first then the first then the fourth then the second then the fifth and the sixth. I enjoyed this particular book in the series because it had more of a twist to it and a huge change in events. I loved the way that she wasn't a vampire anymore and that she had a little girl. I liked the way that it sort of cut off at the end but not in an incomplete way. It was just kind of more like a story that when it ended lkeft it at a point where there could be another book. I also enjoyed how Christopher Pike made Kalika something other human. That was my favorite part of the book. I like how he makes special women in his books. The book is like a movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat not wanting to miss a single line. Instead you just wish that you read faster so that you could read what was going to happen next sooner. I thought that it was great, and it left me dying to read more.
Rating:  Summary: I felt this was the downfall of the series Review: I stated in a review of one of the other books that the books, in my opinion, got dumber with each one. This I feel is the downfall of the series. Its interesting in a sense, yet not entirely. The only kicker I find to this book (that prevented me from giving it 2 stars) was the ending when it is revealed what the child is.
Rating:  Summary: THE BEST BOOK OF THE SERIES! Review: This book is the best. If you havent read the first 3 you might be lost but believe me its worth it. This book builds questions and give answers later to come. #4 really shows Sita's love for her friends her daughter and human life. She is a true Hero!!! I have read this book over 30 times and im 17 and everytime I read it I cry.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent, yet confusing Review: This book was great,except i didn't read the first 3, since they weren't in the library. This made the book confusing, but i still read it & couldn't put the book down, till i finished. I hope i can read the others, real soon. Plus I am a huge fan of PIKE'S. He is an inspiration to me & i hope someday I too can follow in the same direction, but not the exact same path as him.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent Review: This is book #4 in the vampire series. I own all of them as well as the collectors editions. I would highly recommend these to all readers of Christoper Pike as well as readers who have any fascination with the supernatural. Christopher Pike has really written a keeper here.
