Shane and Claire were cute at first. Now I'm just sick of them and wish they'd break up. Eve and Michael are almost to that point for me too. I still love Myrnin, but there was not enough of him in this one for me. Richard dying, especially the way he did, made me sad. He was a character that deserved better.
I was also not a fan of how the chapters were written. They went back and forth between different character's perspectives.
Then we started getting Shane, Michael, and Eve. Eventually Amelie and Oliver were in there sometimes too. Along with all of them we got one from Naomi and Hannah too. That's just too many for my liking. As far as I can recall, the one character who I'd actually be interested in knowing what his crazy mind was thinking has never gotten to share his POV. I think it's absolutely ridiculous for these characters to be getting married as teenagers.
So the ending of this book was not satisfying to me in the least. Shane dreaming of being married and a father weirded me out too.
I think the series as a whole is too fast paced. The things that have gone on in these 12 book took place in the matter of a little under 2 years. It feels more like it should have been 5 years by now.
I'm 12 books in so of course I'll finish the series, but it's definitely dragging on and I am no where near as enthusiastic about reading it as I was in the beginning. Sep 12, Maria V. Snyder rated it really liked it. This book picks up right after Last Breath and the action never stops. This is book 12, but there were hints that Morganville is going to go through another restructuring and the humans aren't going to like it.
I hope it doesn't regress back to the first book, because I'd hate to read 12 books only to find out the trust and freedoms Claire and her friends have earned are all taken away. If Amelie and Oliver don't see just how vital Claire and the others are to the survival of the town, I'll be v This book picks up right after Last Breath and the action never stops.
If Amelie and Oliver don't see just how vital Claire and the others are to the survival of the town, I'll be very unhappy yes, I know the vamps are protrayed as self preservationists sp? If the story does go that way, I hope Claire et. Overall I liked this book better than Last Breath as there was no cheating of logic and the characters stayed consistent.
I'm getting used to reading from the other's POV, but something still seems a bit I'm wondering just how many books Rachel has planned for this series - does anyone know? View 2 comments. Happily, it was an excellent decision. Pretty RabidReads. Pretty scary concept huh? The town also boasts a college that does not sustain the vampires and Claire started her college life there at the tender age of sixteen.
Claire lives with her three roommates off-campus-big mistake on her part number one-and beginning with this book, they are now staying at the vampire stronghold while the rest of the town suffers at the hands of the only real enemy of the vampires, the Draug. Draugs are water based creatures, meaning not only do they live in water, they are also made up of a hideous watery concoction. In Last Breath, the previous book, something bad happens to Amelie the vampire queen and everyone is still reeling from that.
Eve and her fiance, Michael also a vampire are having a rough time due to previous events. Claire and Shane are still in love and working hard along with the vampires to dispel the threat of the draug.
Pretty early on, I fell completely in love with the main characters of Claire, Shane, Michael, and Eve. That has never changed from one book to the next.
They are all roommates, best of friends, and now are two couples. A town that no one can escape from. Side characters of Amelie and Oliver, as the two top vampires, were well fleshed out, and while I dislike Oliver, I do care about Amelie, at least a little.
But then, Claire is feisty as the day is long. So many other characters are important to the story as well. Most of them feel like people I know by now, twelve books in. The last book, this book, and presumably the next book, are all continuing story lines. I recommend that you start with book one, Glass House. If you are like me, you will be hooked pretty much immediately. Rachel Caine has an amazing imagination and it certainly shows in her books.
Her writing is very intricately plotted, detailed, and paced, making reading them in order a must. Her world building, and characterizations are nothing short of fantastic.
These started out as young adult, but fairly quickly became closer to new adult, but nothing explicit. Highly recommended to ages 16 plus. Nov 15, Nicole rated it liked it. So the Draug - interesting creatures.
They are like Vampire's are to Human's. They feed off Vampire's like Vampire's feed on Humans. I feel so bad for Eve. Poor girl was almost drained by Michael now she is scared of him. Makes me feel bad for him too but at the same time I understand where her fear is coming from : With Eve pulling away Michael is questioning them as well - which is very sad to me considering how cute of a couple those two are : I still haven't quite figured out why Shane has So the Draug - interesting creatures.
Makes me feel bad for him too but at the same time I understand where her fear is coming from : With Eve pulling away Michael is questioning them as well - which is very sad to me considering how cute of a couple those two are : I still haven't quite figured out why Shane has to be so jealous of Myrnin.
Claire is with Shane she is not one to stray especially with the crazy guy! I really do like to see more of Shane's perspective on it though - sometimes he is hard to read. I don't even want to think about how Shane would react to that.
Oh, it's small, dusty, and ordinary in most ways, but the thing is, there are these Vampires They own the town. They run it. And until now they've been the unquestioned ruling class.
There's a reason why after reading Twelve books in this series I'm still obsessed with it! Rachel Caine has one of the most vivid imaginations out there in the fantasy writing world. Her imagination never ceases to amaze me, how her "Morganville, Texas, isn't like other towns.
Her imagination never ceases to amaze me, how her stories just more complex and amazing with each book. Black Dawn picks up immediately where Last Breath leaves us with the Draug, planning to destroy the Vampire and take over Morganville.
Even with the vampires ruling under a ruthless strict policy, it appears to be a blissful dream compared to what the Draug have in store for the citizens of Morganville, Texas.
Unfortunately Vampire Amelie the Ruler of Morganville is powerless against the Draug with her injury she sustained in Last Breath, and with that the future of the town is left to he residents of the Glass House; Claire, Shane, Michael, Eve, and of course with the help of my favorite Insane Vampire Myrnin.
Claire continues to get more BadAss with each book and her best friends are such outstanding supporting characters I've grown to love and without them The Morganville Vampire series wouldn't be the same. If you haven't had the pleasure to read The Morganville Vampires then I suggest you do because Rachel Caine is a genius at world building and even though this book is not left on a cliffhanger, she still manages to set us readers up for another action packed, adventure with an even darker path than its predecessor.
I'll be fine. I'm coming. Monica, just get inside and stay there. I'm not letting you run off to get killed somewhere without me, jackass. She didn't know how she looked, but Monica seemed to shift a little, as if she was considering taking a step back. You come with us. But I can say that Myrnin fans will love him in Black Dawn. Even with the death of a beloved character I would still say this is one of Rachel Caine's best and I'll be impatiently patiently waiting for Bitter Blood.
If you're a fan of dark, gritty, series with vampires, and a Kick-Ass heroine then I suggest you read The Morganville Vampires, it's a favorite of mine and there's a reason why it's on the New York Times best selling list!! An easy 5 stars! It was unbelievably exciting I couldn't put it down. Once again Rachel Caine continues to be an auto-buy author of mine. ARC provided for review by Penguin View all 17 comments.
Though I did have some issues with this latest installment, I can honestly say that even after twelve books, I hope the series never ends. The whole book is one long climax, like the downward rush of a rollercoaster but without the gradually building anticipation of the rise up or the break before the next climb.
I really missed the casual interaction and playful moments between Claire and her friends. The last several chapters were gripping and tragic and pivotal for the future of Morganville.

Even with that said, I still enjoyed the read. For a full review and yummy pic, see m Quick review: Cover: Who is this supposed to be? Audio Review Angela Dawes took over the narration. And while she did a good job, it took a little bit to get used to. Especially the voice of Myrin. Keeping my original rating since this was pretty interesting but also dragged on a liiiittle too much.
There's also a lot of going back to how things were before Magnus despite the changes Amelie agreed to make on Morganville and that's d u m b.

I'm worried about what will go down in the next book, certainly it won't be good especially with view spoiler [ Naomi still out there, ugh the bitch. Black Dawn came from multiple POV's - i loved most of these except i wasnt big on a few, i was a bit iffy on the males, especially Oliver's but then no one really knows whats going on in his head.
Go Girls! View all 11 comments. Jan 17, Amber I. I have never read a series with this many books and had each one of them be 4 and 5 stars!
Any paranormal fan is going to want to read these books! Black Dawn takes place right after the last book. And not only do the humans who are left in Morganville have to worry about the vampires they also have the vampires enemies to worry about too, the Draug.
The vamps and humans seem to come together to try and defeat them but its a temporary truce. This book is just non stop action and you really have n I have never read a series with this many books and had each one of them be 4 and 5 stars!
This book is just non stop action and you really have no idea where they are going. There was some heart breaking moments, some unexpected friends, and most of the book had you on the edge of your seat in anticipation.
There were a few chapters where I was yelling at the book. I needed to know it was going to be okay. Claire, Shane, Michael and Eve are just an amazing set of friends together. There was a lot of touching moments that had me tearing up. Plus they are just really funny too. And Shane, oh Shane had me totally tearing up! There is just so much going on you are going to need to read this book asap! I have no idea what Rachel Caine has in store for us but after reading the last chapter you find out that Morganville is about to change in a very drastic way.
What exactly that is going to mean for the humans, well I guess we are all going to have to wait and see. Morganville Vampire series is one of my most favorite YA series ever!! And that is not something I would say lightly.
So if you haven't yet please do yourself a favor and go check it out! Oh I almost forgot did I mention Shane had a flame thrower?? Um yes he did and it was extremely HOT! View all 5 comments. Right out the door, vivid and action-packed from one moment to the next. Enemies became allies as Morganville faced its thirteenth hour. This late in the series, it's mind-blowing how much story there is in Morganville.
Caine has said multiple times that Morganville will never really end and always have a new tale around every corner and I really believe her. She has such a way of combining the heart-racing action with the rolling emotions and deadly times of being in the wrong place at any give Right out the door, vivid and action-packed from one moment to the next. She has such a way of combining the heart-racing action with the rolling emotions and deadly times of being in the wrong place at any given time.
Typically, the vampire story has been told over and over and over, but never like this, and I stand by that so hard, even now as this is my third read. The latest big bad, a draug named Magnus made me so nervous. It was a watery apocalypse for Morganville because of this thing. He's one of my utmost favorite villains because the guy really got me thinking this was the end for Morganville. Bleak, yet fun and dangerous and breathtaking.
Another book I loved in this series. Mar 28, Gemma Kirkby rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: All Vampire fans, Twilight fans and fanasy reads. Could this series get any more exciting? This by far is the best in the series. Full of action though out the book, lots of twists and turns that will keep you wanting more and wondering what is going to happen next.
You even get to the point where you are questioning a lot of the characters and their in-tensions towards Morganville itself. There are a few deaths along the way, and the four main characters are never far from danger, as always the main ones for that is Claire and Shane but what c Could this series get any more exciting?
