Wonderful Story Concpet, Not Your Average Vampire Novel
This book begins with a wonderful concept. To put it in my own words what would happen if you merged Tyler Durden (Fight Club) with Blade (you know the vampire slayer).

How the merge happened is left a mystery till about an 8th of the way into the book ...
