Travel home with Darren in this, the penultimate book in the saga.
Critics Review
-
“Even after eleven books, this series still has great momentum. The gory, heart-pounding action sequences—a staple of this series—do not deflect from Darren’s personal growth. Darren falls in love and experiences some very painful losses, but readers who pick up the books for the blood and guts will not feel dragged down by the human or vampire relationships. There is one very disturbing murder near the end of the book, but it is a necessary plot point to fully determine that there is no hope of redemption for Steve. Fans of the series will anxiously await the final volume.”
