Publisher's Summary

History isn't always what it seems....

With the battle of Egypt behind them, Alec and Cronin are enjoying the thrill of new love. Though fate doesn't wait long before throwing them back into the world of weird.

They know Alec's blood is special, though its true purpose still eludes them. And given Alec's inability to be changed into a vampire, Cronin is free to drink from him at will. But the ramifications of drinking such powerful blood starts a ripple effect.

With the help of Jorge, a disturbing vampire-child with the gift of foresight, Alec and Cronin face a new kind of war. This time their investigations lead them to the borders of China and Mongolia - but it's not what lies in the pits beneath that worries Alec.

It's the creator behind it all.

In the underground depths of China, amidst a war with the Terracotta Army, they will find out just what the Key is, and what Alec means to the vampire world.

They get better and better

This book was even better than the last. I can feel the unbearable intensity of Alec and Cronins relationship to my bones. I was very curious about how all the clues were going to fit together. The ending fight felt-anticlimactic though, and a little rushed. But the other ending scenes brought me to tears. You’re not going to want to miss this.

Better than the first book

This book was way better than the first. The “fight” scene with the “bad” guys was more laughable Than the first book and I’m beginning too think this is the intention of the author and truth be told, I don’t know how many times I’ve read a book and thought, “why was that so difficult when they could have just ___(fill in the blank) and be done with it”, and apparently that is the case with this author, because the bad guys are more easily defeated than their minions.

I like the twist regarding ancestry (I won’t spoil it for others).

The narration by Joel Leslie, was again, very well done. He is well adept at accents, Scottish, French, Spanish, Japanese and British accents all within one story, not to mention the “American” accent, quite impressive.

I enjoyed this even more

Without giving the ending away, I really enjoyed it. It was great to have the ending the way it did.
