Samantha Moon is back trying to live the normal suburban soccer Mom life though she is a vampire, a creature of the night. Working missing person cases, museum thefts all the while her son has become ill. What would you do if you were a mother with a sick child that you know is dying? Would you save him in anyway that you could?
. The story has adventure, humor, human relationships and emotions. I am really finding this series has complexity.

With a plot involving Broadway dancers, aliens, telekinetic little boys who ought be girls, merpeople, and how these merpeople's mating rituals will affect the fate of the earth, Moon Child is undeniably, strikingly original. Unfortunately, the heart of a story is usually it's characters, and while here they are generally sympathetic and do have recognizable personality traits, they are otherwise mostly...nondescript? Usually that's a deal breaker for me, but the plot here really is so show more bizarre that I think I may actually read on if a cheap opportunity presents itself. (Especially considering I hear it only gets weirder as it goes on.) The art is also of the older late 80's shoujo style I'm not overly fond of. Still, while I feel a little odd giving something points just for weirdness factor, sometimes that really is enough to keep something entertaining. At least for a little while. show less
