Pros: Interesting characters & plot
Cons: Definitely doesn’t stand alone; vampires seem like fairly standard supermen; mind-reading is unevenly depicted; surfer vampires
Rating: 2 out of 5

Tattoo artist Riley Poe allied herself with a vampire in order to get her brother back alive in Afterlight. Her spirit and unusual blood type, however, made her a target for some particularly vicious vampires. Now she has some vampiric tendencies such as strength, reflexes, and heightened senses, but she also seems to have a telepathic link with a rampaging vampire who’s creating an army of new followers. She’s going to need all of her new allies if she hopes to stop the killing without ending up dead herself—or worse.
