Search - Minion (Vampire Huntress, Bk 1)

This particular book... kinda sucks. And I don't say that lightly.

Apart from the fact that the writing itself is unexceptional, apart from the fact that all the characters are flat and unsympathetic (in that I just don't care about any of them -- I don't even have a handle on who some of them are), not only does it almost immediately hit the "Vamp book, so there must be lots of sex, and if not sex, several pointless descriptions of masturbation! And hey, some graphic sexual violence just for kicks!" ...

My greatest complaint about this book is the simple fact that nothing happens. Really. There's one spontaneous difficult-to-follow and never ending fight scene near the beginning of the story, and that's basically all the action (and plot) you can expect. It's a talky-talky-talky-talky book with the extra added benefit of painfully dull dialog.

I wanted to like this book. It's written in a setting I'm unfamiliar with, and proposes a few interesting novelties that I haven't come across before in this genre, but it just doesn't do anything useful with either of those things.

I own the second book. I'll probably read it just for kicks, but I'm not holding my breath.

Can I say how disappointed I was with this book. I really wanted to like it but I hated the characters. I know their are alot of fans for this series but I just was not interested in this book.

The book is actually a fresh new take on vampires and vampire hunters. It is the first in a series.

The story starts off pretty slow in that for a possible half hour event, it took one and a half chapters to just get them out of a building. After it warms up and you are introduced to all the characters it goes pretty smooth. There is just enough suspence in who or what the major character is and her origins. You are introduced to a love interest that gives you doubts, but the story is told in such a way that you want to have faith and hope for the characters connection. After it got going I truly enjoy the telling of the tale and look forward to the next installment of this series. Just hope that it not drawn out too much just to make sells on a series.

This book is so boring. I didn't like any of the characters and the plot just seemed to go no where. It was not exciting. Really disappointing since I heard many good things about this series. I guess some people really like the story and others don't like it at all. Give it try and see what happens for you.
