Fantasy Book Critic: Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff (Reviewed by Mihir Wanchoo)" . Retrieved 8 February 2016. That something arrives in the form of a quest. Like so many before him in popular literature, Gabe ultimately finds himself on a search for the Holy Grail, a magical object that is rumored to be able to end daysdeath, and with it, the vampire plague. Whether the Grail is real or not is a spoiler that only those who read the book will find out, but Gabe’s search for it will quite literally change his life and expand the events of the second and third books in this trilogy in new and different ways.Orange tabs: Slightly more subjective, these mark anything in the book that made me roll my eyes and think “yeah, this was definitely written by a man.” These include descriptions of women that are very clearly from and for the male gaze, questionable interactions with female anatomy, cringe dialogue or actions from female characters meant to appeal to the male gaze...you get the deal. But the last silversaint faces peril, within and without. Pursued by children of the Forever King, drawn into wars and webs centuries in the weaving, and ravaged by his own rising bloodlust, Gabriel may not survive to see the truth of the Grail revealed.

Over the course of the last 20, 30 years they have evolved into something very different,” Kristoff says. “[And] there’s nothing wrong with exploring that kind of vampire,” he adds, describing himself as a “massive fan” of The Vampire Diaries and firmly “Team Delena” when it comes to the love triangle at the show’s center. This is more than vampire story: it’s about losing your belief, your life purpose, your inner source of light, your compass!I forgot to take off a star for what happened to poor Phoebe and Justice. Y’all know me: I care more about the animals than the people, and I won’t apologize for it. The cool thing about [the ‘vampire’ concept] is they’re a dozen different things to a dozen different people. You can have a dozen different vampire fans in the room, and they’ll all tell you a different reason why they like them, why they’re attracted to them.” All these issues made me struggle a LOT reading the first half of Empire of the Vampire. If it weren't because the beautiful interior artwork exist, and my buddy-read friends who convinced me to persevere, I would've given up. Fortunately, I did not give up. Lady Fortuna shines on me. What happened? Two words: second half. As much as the news saddens me I will trust your promise and I shall be thirsty for a year longer only to devote all of my soul to EoTV. Thanks for the explanations and stuff!! Gabriel What's-His-Face has risen up and given challenge to Aelin for the amount of self-confidence affirmations and introductions because I bet that almost HALF this book could have been done away with if all of the "I'm a lion" sentences had been scrapped. Besides that, he's a Speshul Boy™️ from a conveniently-forgotten bloodline ( still wasn't explained how DEAD creatures were able to procreate okay) and rises up as a super famous warrior BEFORE HE'S EVEN TWENTY like okay so that happened.

The inclusion and heavy focus on a vampire who specifically targets underage virgin girls and uses them like animals. Seriously, he has them pull his carriage like horses. And inevitably the main character massacres every single one of those teenage girls in explicit detail while the man controlling them walks away.So please lend me your throat… I mean ear. Of course, I meant ear. Because this story is gripping, scheming, and spine chilling and just ‘Bloody’ brilliant. It was the twenty-seventh year of daysdeath in the realm of the Forever King, and his murderer was waiting to die.” I had this marked as want to read when it was untitled, bc pfffft c’mon- Kristoffffff, but id be lying if i didnt say i was FLIPPING MY SHIT ATM Empire of the Vampire is an infuriating novel. And yet, at the same time, it is also a brilliant and bloody epic post-apocalyptic fantasy and vampire story. While everyone sees Gabriel as a hero, this notion seems to annoy him. He knows that he is good at slaying vampires, but he has no illusion about his character’s worth: he is far from being a hero in shining armor, ready to sweep in to save a damsel in distress. He laughs out loud when people call him a hero and does not hesitate to set the records right and let them know that he’s no hero at all. He is ruthless, brutal, and cold (and drunk sometimes), but more than that, he is a survivor. The fact that he is fierce has a magical sword that can communicate with him telepathically, has magical tattoos, and is a half-vampire hell-bent on eradicating the scum of the world also makes him all the more cool and badass.
