Gr 8 Up—Family time is not always fun, especially if you're Joss. His cousin Henry is mad at him for attempting to kill his best friend, a vampire. Joss's parents have been unreachable ever since his sister, Cecile, was killed. To compound his problems, Joss is given the mission of tracking down a murderous vampire in his hometown without any other Slayer help; his Slayer friend Paty is not allowed to help him. Joss and Henry's parents insist that the boys work out their bad blood, and now his cousin won't let him go anywhere alone. Narrator Alexander Cendese is a fine match for this story. He does a great job of narrating the mix Joss's inner turmoil as well as the action scenes and many plot twists. His unique narrative style brings to life the personalities of the characters and the Slayer world. His tone and pacing match the mix of scenes effortlessly and engage the reader. Fans of the Vladimir Todd and "The Slayer Chronicles" series will not be disappointed.—Jessica Moody, Olympus Jr. High, Holladay, UT
