Praise for UPRISING:
“It's got action . . . it's a thriller . . . more hardcore Underworld action than Twilight angst. This could be the one for you.”
- Falcata Times
“Dark and dirty . . . returns vampires to their rightful place as the creatures of nightmares.”
- Monsters and Critics
“Exhilarating . . . [the author] makes his undead realm seem genuine.”

If you want a swoonsome male vampire with adoring female, then this book is not for you.
Downloaded this as a free Kindle book and am not disappointed. A good read, with pace and action. Vampires are very in and have been for the last few years BEFORE the soppy Twilight saga. This approaches the subject from a different angle, with a vampire society regulated by the Vampire Federation to keep a low profile. As in any group there are those who don't want to toe the line and have plans to return to the good old days.
Beware these vampires can go out in daylight!
I look forward to the next one.

I loaded this book some time ago. It was free so I got it. When I started reading it I was disappointed to find it was a vampire story. This is not really my scene and I cannot quite understand the current craze for this gendre. I almost deleted it but decided to read another page or two. I read some more, and as I read, the more I wanted to read. I have to say I rarely find a book 'unputdownable' but this book came close. It was a thrilling read from start to finish and as I got towards the last page, I was still chewing fingernails. I shall certainly read more of Mr Mariani. I suggest you try him too!

Uprising is a great concept novel, not only do Vampires exist but they have their own government (The Vampire Federation) whose Agents keep rogue Vampires in check and ensure that their existance remain a secret to us mere mortals! But not all those with sharpened fangs and a taste for blood like this way of life and an uprising by the Traditionalist (who want a return to the old ways) make for an enjoyable read. Personally if I was a vampire I'd back the trads - a Vampire Nanny state is just too much!!
