Galen

Galen is by Allan Gilbreath. This is the first book in The Galen Saga. Galen is a vampire. He's been around for a long time and he's having a really bad month. He's forced to kill another vampire, he's being tracked by person or persons unknown in a van, his accountant is out for his head - literally, and he has now ended up "turning" his dinner. Jeez! What next! This is a dark and very strange tale. It hooks you enough to keep you reading hoping that you will eventually get to the crux of the matter. You don't and you are left with a vaguely unsatisfied feeling. However, you do end up wanting to read the next book to see if Galen gets what he has coming or not. Worth a read if you enjoy dark vampire fantasy tales.

Ratings: 9th grade - 6 out of 10 - MP (mild profanity) - S (non-graphic sexual references).
