While I had some trouble thriving in this book. I have found myself pressured into continuing this series for answers to some many questions. Dawn's story line is an interesting read, although I have trouble keeping up with these books because the author is narrirating rather than living the story. Each chapter is told as though it is a third person looking in. I have had trouble following this story, and finding interest in all situation. Though, as I have said Chris Green is commended on the fact that is has a interesting story that keeps me reading only to find answers to questions that I can not live with not knowing the answers.

Awesome. I just finished "Midnight Reign" by Chris Marie Green. This is book two in her 'Vampire Babylon' series and a wild ride from start to finish. If you enjoy your urban fantasies with a darker edge, you have got to try this series, but you'll have to read the first book, "Night Rising", to understand the scope of this work.

Dawn is still searching for her father. Meanwhile, she's been recruited by 'the Voice' into joining his team of investigators searching out the inner sanctum of a vampire nest in LA. She's also still torn between her attraction to "the Voice" and Matt, a private investigator who's also supposedly looking for Dawn's father. In this story, we get a deeper look into past incidents that helped create this present. We learn more about 'the Master' and his 'son' Sorin. We learn more about Eva, Dawns' moviestar mother who was tragically murdered. We learn more about Kiko, the little person with a literal magic touch. And we learn more about Dawn and what drives her.

I was hooked from page one and will be tapping my toes outside the bookstore on September 2, 2008 for the release of "Break of Dawn". ( )
