In this last novel of the “New Tales of the Vampires” series
we are introduced to a new vampire Vittorio. Vittorio was a young boy on the
verge of manhood during the 15th century Italy. His family ruled on
high from their mountain top castle in northern Tuscany. His ideal life was
shattered in one tragic night of murder. The family castle was invaded in the dead
of night by what Vittorio would later find out is the ghastly Order of the Ruby
Grail. Every single man woman and child
was murdered except Vittorio. He was the only one spared by the super natural killers.
Vittorio fought valiantly to protect his little brother and sister but could
not stop these freakishly strong killers from their mission of death. Spared by the woman who had helped destroy his
family Vittorio became obsessed with vengeance and finding out more about this
supernatural woman Ursula and the Order of the Ruby Grail.
4/5 I enjoyed a brand new vampire and a new romantic one
too! I wish Anne had written more of this branch of the Vampire Chronicles
because I would read those too. This one was a short, fast paced read and I
enjoyed it. I would recommend this one to historical lovers alike because it
does not really tie into any of the other novels in the series, it defiantly
can be read as a stand-alone novel.
