Review/Rating:

5 out of 5



When Cole is called to New York by Johnny for a mission, he doesn't know what to expect. Johnny gives him the mission of training a newly made heme, Gordon, on the road. Cole is well known in the heme community for being an observant and controlled master of life on the road. Though, with training a new heme, his experience and caution may not be enough to get the mission accomplished since accidents can still happen, no matter how experienced he is.

Yay. :) Finally another vampire book. :P

This vampire book is totally different for all the other vampire books I have read, which is good. :) In Night Road, the author makes them hemovores, instead of vampires, which is very different from what I'm used to and is a very original theme and plot for a vampire book. Also, the author gives them a more human-like aura, instead of making them unholy monsters that most authors make them out to be. However, she doesn't stray too far off of the original vampire legends -- still can't go out into sunlight and drinks blood -- thought it adds a few more things that I don't want to list to make the book seem different from all the other vampire books and has some action. :)

Very good book to read, very original with the vampire theme. :P
