Methuselah, more commonly known as vampires, and Terrans, known as humans, have nearly always been on shaky terms with one another but when those from one side try to sabotage the fragile peace, then the AX team of the Vatican must step in to stop them.

We follow young priest Father Abel Nightrode, AX agent codename Crusnik. On the surface, Father Abel seems to be nothing more than a clumsy, ditzy, know-nothing. However, if the case calls for it, what he is truly capable of shows through and his true race of a Crusnik is shown.

The Methuselah follow no one and bow to no one but their Empress, feeling superiority over the lesser races that they feed on. They would never think that there could be anything that could turn the tables and use them as food...

Until Abel.

I first found out about this series by watching it on TV so of course jumped at the chance to review it, and I’m very glad I did. I fell in love almost instantly with the TV series, so needless to say the book had the same effect. In fact, if I may say so myself, it was even better than the series.

Abel is a character that you can fall in love with nearly instantly, and find yourself laughing at nearly every turn, and waiting with bated breath at every other. This story takes the old fashioned story of vampires against humans and gives it a completely new twist.

Beautiful, well written, and well translated. How much cooler can a book get than a vampire’s vampire? I don’t know if I’ll be able to wait long enough for the second one!
