Blurb From The Publisher:
Allison Sekemoto has vowed to rescue her creator, Kanin, who is being held hostage and tortured by the psychotic vampire Sarren. The call of blood leads her back to the beginning—New Covington and the Fringe, and a vampire prince who wants her dead yet may become her wary ally.
Even as Allie faces shocking revelations and heartbreak like she’s never known, a new strain of the Red Lung virus that decimated humanity is rising to threaten human and vampire alike.
Our Thoughts On:
Blood is a necessary thing, a mortal
thing, and no one now knows the suffering of needing, wanting, craving blood
more than Alison. As much as blood calls to blood,
Allison is desperately searching for her sire Kanin as she knows that the fate
he has fallen to is dire. Time may be running out for everyone human and
vampire as a plague is sweeping the land and the future may be more deadly than
ever imagined. Born human in the fringes of society, Allison has only been
recently turned into a vampire. Hating the authority and restrictions that
vampires in her city has imposed on humans before being turned, Allison has
guided humans to salvation, completed the transformation into becoming a
vampire and not a rabid, and also accomplished not sating her Hunger at the
cost of her love’s life. Allison had a doomed relationship loving a rebel human
named Ezekiel Cross a boy who had lead a rebel party of humans to Eden, a secret
holdout for humanity away from vampires.
If you were looking for an evil guy,
then The Eternity Cure’s Sarren has
you covered. With a diabolical plan that could destroy the world, a comfortable
working of torture, and no humanity left in his ancient vampire system, Sarren
in his insanity singlehandedly destroys Allison as he works his way through the
individuals she cares about. With several appearances throughout the story
Sarren cripples readers with his tenacity and destruction, keeping face as an
evil character and never showing charity to any. In a race to crush humanity,
just as Allison works desperately to not only find Sarren and stop his evil
intentions but also to find a cure.
From the ending of The Immortal Rules, Allison had to give
up her fight to stay with Ezekiel Cross, the human that she has loved. Eden was
the last stronghold of humanity not controlled by vampires, and the price of
getting Zeke and his band into Eden was Allison leaving. Allison feels the pain
and loss of Zeke as much as she feels the pain of her Hunger ever eating away
at her. Wanting the best for Zeke, staying away so that she would not lose
control of herself and succumb to the urge to bite Zeke, Allison left what she
held dear while turning on the path to finding her sire Kanin who was
suffering. The blood ties between vampires have consequences and as Kanin’s
pain is transferred to Allison she must find a way to save him, even at the
heavy cost of leaving Zeke.
New Covington holds a hard place in
Allison’s heart, for it was at the fringes of this vampire city that she lived
as a human, but now it may hold the secret to the cure that the world so
desperately needs. Lying hidden below this city is a secret lab, ripe with a
terribly history but holding a possible cure to the latest outbreak of the Red
Lung Disease. Allison has to choose her strengths as time shortens for not only
the people she cares about, but also the future.
Through challenges and trickery the
characters have to come to terms with not only their humanity or that they are
vampire, as the time works against them with the
