4.0 out of 5 stars A BLOODY GOOD VAMPIRE TALE..., 30 July 2009
By Lawyeraau (Balmoral Castle) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
This is an interesting spin on traditional vampire tales. It seems that vampires have come out of their shells and come into power. They are literally taking over the world. With Eastern and Western Europe under their control, and India and the Far East under their domination, vampires are now making inroads in the good old United Stated of America.

These vampires are aided by collaborators known as cowboys, humans who have been promised immortality if they do the vampires' dirty work for them. Cowboys round-up humans, as if they were cattle, for their masters to feed upon, and these hungry hordes of vampires seem unstoppable, as major cities in the United States succumb to their might.

When vampires arrive in a small sea side town in New Jersey, the going gets rough, as they meet resistance from an unusual group of humans: a nun with a secret mission, a disgraced priest with a bit of a drinking problem, his gay niece, and a rabbi. Together, they each do their bit to thwart the advancing horde of vampires. What happens to each one along the way makes for a page turning vampire tale.

This is definitely a book worth reading, if one enjoys vampire stories. Though very traditional in terms of vampire lore, there are enough twists to make it seem fresh and interesting. Though not as good as the author's other vampire tale, "The Keep", which is a masterpiece, this is a good enough yarn to keep the reader turning the pages until the very end. It will not disappoint.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the best, 22 Jan 2006
By G. Keen - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This has got to be one of the best blood and guts Vampire story I have ever read.
Being a big fan of Mr wilsons I had high expectations of this book and I was not dissapointed. My only criticism would be a some what rushed ending and as of yet there is no sequel though I hope this will be rectified soon.

Fantastic more of the same please.

5.0 out of 5 stars What an adventure ride, 12 Sep 2009
By Tony Hobbs (Bristol, S Glos United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
First let me start by suggesting that something was missing - Jack. I know, but if it works for Clive Cussler it would have worked brilliantly here. Clive Cussler fans will know what I mean, he adds himself in a page, I was not expecting to see FPW, but I was half expecting to see Jack or at least his name mentioned as the book was partly set in New york. But that is a minor thing.
FPW sticks to vampire lore very well, garlic, steaks (not the red meat type!), crosses and daylight etc etc. But he introduces a brilliantly novel way of killing many of them in one go. I am not spoiling it.
There is a great story, it was easy to follow, of revenge in the book and a twist, also quite sad and touching in places. He doesn't pull many punches in how brutal the vampires and their "cowboy" slaves are, some is quite hard hitting.
There is scope for a follow up, so that is a hint there Mr Wilson, a sequel please. Though with a rank of 550,000 in Amazon's UK book sales that may not happen, that is a shame... Mind you that is a lot better ranking than my mums book, Cats' Tails from Amazonia (OK - I know, sneaky!!).
I highly recommend this book to any vampire lover or any FPW fan. As good as any book he has written. Mr Wilson, you have a wonderful talent, thank you for sharing it with us.
