Choice of the Cat (The Vampire Earth, Book 2)

E.E. Knight

Roc, 2004

Smooth and completely unpredictable
Choice of the Cat impressed me with it's depth of plot and setting. David Valentine reminds me of a cross between Tom Sackett in Lous L'Amour's books and Neo in the Matrix. He's handsome, tough and often hard, but also sensitive and intelligent. I especially enjoyed ...

Fall with Honor (Vampire Earth, Book 7)

E.E. Knight

Roc Hardcover, 2008

Adding depth and setting the stage for a lot more detail
If you've read the rest of the series you can almost start to see all of the subtle little plot hooks fall into place. Valentine is gaining command experience. His Rommel like running in this book may seem a little anti-climactic, but the ingenious nature of this ...

Dragon Champion (Age of Fire, Book 1)

E.E. Knight

Roc Trade, 2005

A refreshing new series for those that love dragons
I could go on about what this story entails, but others have already done that, quite eloquently. What I really found appealing about this series is that we are not dragged into any of the dragon cliches: these dragons are not benevolent or malevolent any more than ...

Way of the Wolf (The Vampire Earth, Book 1)

E.E. Knight

Roc, 2003

If Brian Lumley and L. Ron hubbard had a kid, he would have written this.
I read this book in a single sitting. Take a bit of Battlefield Earth, a bit of the Necroscope, and toss in a little Outlaw Josey Wales, and you get David Valentine and the Vampire Earth. My only complaint is that the books are too short. I would really like to ...

Tale of the Thunderbolt (The Vampire Earth, Book 3)

E.E. Knight

Roc, 2005

Tale of the Thunderbolt is my favorite so far!!!!!!!!
I enjoyed Way of the Wolf and Choice of the Cat, but Tale of the Thunderbolt is my favorite so far. Maybe this is because I am not a sci-fi buff. Maybe it's because I dig dark and urban fantasy(where we like a fast moving story-line and sympathetic characters)or maybe ...

Valentine's Rising (The Vampire Earth, Book 4)

E.E. Knight

Roc, 2005

Valentine's Rising captivated me.

Ranging from macabre fantasies to fairy tales and tales of crime, these stories from the author of The Nutcracker create a rich fictional world. Hoffman paints a complex vision of humanity, where people struggle to establish identities in a hostile, absurd world. "The editors have made an excellent selection, and the result is a book of great ...

Robin Hood and Other Outlaw Tales (TEAMS Middle English Texts, Kalamazoo)

E.E. Knight

Roc Trade, 2006

Great Dragon stories from the perspective of the dragons...
I'm finishing up on the second in this series (Dragon Avenger) and so far Dragon Champion and Dragon Avenger are Great Reads. The characters have depth and are real, both fanciful and intense. The first book centered around Auron, and left me anticipating the second ...
