Book Description:
Morganville, Texas. Just south of normal.

In the college town of Morganville, vampires and humans have coexisted in (relatively) bloodless harmony...until the arrival of Bishop, a master vampire who threatens to put the evil back in evil undead and smash the fragile peace. But Bishop isn't the only threat...

Violent black clouds promise a storm of devastating proportions. As student Claire Danvers and her friends prepare to defend Morganville against the elements -- both natural and unnatural -- the unexpected happens: Morganville's vampires begin to vanish one by one. Discovering why leads Claire to one last choice: Swear allegiance to Bishop...or die.

I really do like this series. The Morganville world is becoming more nuanced and interesting. I like all of the characters, good and not so good. Claire, who was a bit of a goody goody early in the series, is now getting tough. Rachel Caine cannot write, unfortunately, without ending in a cliffhanger, and not just a set up for the next book, but a didn't resolve anything, tune in next episode, cliffhanger. Expect it going in and enjoy it, but don't try to read these out of order.

Lord of Misrule was a filler book, IMO. Until the very end, (which was a cliff-hanger, of course) nothing much was really going on. There's a battle for control of Morganville going on between Amelie and her father, Bishop. The gang is doing what they can to help Amelie. That's about it really.

The town of Morganville has seen better days since the return of Bishop, a master vampire who wants control of the town. His daughter, Amelie, isn't going to relinquish her power easily.

Now everyone's choosing sides and waiting for the battle to begin. Those who have chosen now have their battle assignments. Claire must find Myrnin, Shane must guard the blood bank, Michael protects the college students, and Eve needs to head back to the coffee shop and to Oliver.

In a fight this big, there's bound to be infighting and backstabbing. Soon the humans in town aren't sitting on the sidelines anymore. Those who were once protected can no longer count on the vampire alliance to protect them.

Claire and her friends are doing everything they can to save the town, but they seem to be the key to the fight. Are they about to be double-crossed themselves?

LORD OF MISRULE is the 5th book in the very popular THE MORGANVILLE VAMPIRES series. While vampire books are flooding the market, this series stands out because of its differences. The vampires in the series are not friendly, they are out for your blood and only something benefiting them will stop them from drinking. Suspense and horror alongside of friendship and romance make this series perfect and unforgettable.
