I'm not sure I totally buy the vision of technology here, but a fun adventure nonetheless—and a nice tying-up story for Kevin Riley.

I remember reading this book as a teen and it changed my view of vampires from would-be-frightening to downright enigmatic. This was also around the time when I moved away from the tween series and into more YA. I found this book in the library and just thought it fell into the YA genre. It did not, it was way beyond my years and now that I'm rereading this book, I have a deeper appreciation for how it changed my literary platter and veered me into mystery, sweeping beauty, prose and ultimately awakened my ability to actually visualize things beyond my comprehension.

I am excited to be going through the series once more.

This novelization really fleshed out people's motivations in ways I didn't fully follow in the episode. Is that because the actors weren't good, or because they were settling into roles, or because they had different interpretations or their characters than the novelizer, or because I did, or some combination? Probably that last one.

In any case, that focus on internal thoughts is what I really want in a novelization and this delivered. I very much liked it.
