Site rating: 4 1/2 - A Truly Different Kind of Vampire Tale - One Where Politics and Masterful Story

The political agenda seems to be well in hand. Creatures of the night are getting ready to unleash something far more dangerous than a mere bite. It could change the human way of life forever! Turn the page to experience the most spellbinding tale of 2006! A catatonic man has awakened from a long lifeless state, only to be thrust into a political web of sinister weaving. Andrew Gabriel will have to face his maniacal half-brother, Craven Maxwell in an arena that is filled with pitfalls and death. Craven is set to run for the Vice President of the United States of America, but that is just a cover for something very dark and dangerous to get him in the White House. Within this tale, one woman will become a special part of Andrew's life, a part he is unwilling to compromise or let slip out of his reach. Who will come out the victor and who will die as a result of unfortunate circumstances? VAMPIRE ROYALTY: THE REBELLION is by Valerie Hoffman. Ms. Hoffman took a familiar vampire premise and penned one of political strife and underhanded intrigue. With characters that move along the story at a brisk pace, slowing unfolding their tale of greed and the most unholy of political plots this reviewer has ever read. To be honest this reviewer did not expect this story to turn out the way it did and was quite surprised and pleased by the flowing rhythm and quality of crafting Ms. Hoffman displayed in spades with VAMPIRE ROYALTY: THE REBELLION. Ms. Hoffman's voice is clear, fresh and a much-needed boost in an overflowing genre of mediocre books. Andrew has come back to the living, one could say. He is not only a vampire, but also a man of strong fortitude and courage. It is the compromising of his kind and the human race that will be at stake in this tale of political mayhem. His evil half-brother has developed a scheme that could jeopardize the human race, creating a system that is deadlier than any plan known to man. Add to the mix a woman that means the world to Andrew and her life could be in danger as well. How will this all play out? Can Andrew defeat Craven and bring harmony to their kind and the humans? With so many paranormal/vampire books to choose from these days, it is hard to pick what is best for you. If you love intrigue broiled in a hotbed of scalding politics of the Capital, then you will definitely want to pickup a copy of VAMPIRE ROYALTY: THE REBELLION by Ms. Hoffman today! This reviewer would like to note: There are a few scenes in this book that are very graphic and are not for the faint of heart.

Thrills and Chills--Vampire Book Sure to Please

If you like Anne Rice, try Vampire Royalty. It's filled with action, romance and mystery. I understand it is the first in a trilogy and I want more!

Imaginative, engaging and well written

I was so pleasantly surprised by "Vampire Royalty," surprised only because I hadn't heard of the author. Vivid characters, imagery and thought provoking themes. I recommend it highly.

Excellent Read!

I was recommended this book by a friend and it turned out to be a wonderful novel! I thoroughly enjoyed it from begining to end. Hoffman really weaves a tale of love, deceit and thrills. She is obviously an expert on vampires and portrayed them in a unique way you usually don't see in other books, film and TV. Her writing is superb - clear, crisp and flows in the literary manner of a seasoned writer. I believe this book is the first of a series. I can't wait for the second to come out. Definitely check this book out!
