![]() ![]() ![]() Now their ruthless leader has captured Gabriel and imprisoned him, forcing him to answer to his crimes. Their enemies are the coldbloods, or full-blood vampires, who have overcome their defenses ever since the darkness fell twenty-seven years ago, building a vast empire with the end goal of snuffing out the last vestiges of humanity. ![]() But that was a long time ago, and now Gabriel is the last of his kind-a silversaint, or a half-human and half-vampire hybrid sworn to the Church. Our hero of the hour is Gabriel de León, a famed monster hunter from the holy Silver Order dedicated to protecting the world from the creatures of the night. It’s also a doorstopper of a novel, heavy both literally and figuratively, so be sure you have the time, ideal mood and mental resolve before starting this very dark, very nihilistic tale of vampires and vendettas. Jay Kristoff has called Empire of the Vampire the best book he’s ever written, and while my Mia Corvere loving heart might have a thing or two to say about that, I do have to admit it’s probably his most epic and impressive.
