Vampires of AtlantisVampires of Atlantis by Courtney Davis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found this book to be an interesting story to read. This is not my first book by this author but it is one I enjoyed the most. I enjoyed how the author used details to give the story a realistic feel, as if you are part of the story. This is a story about Ian and his quest to save the Descendants of Atlantis from a monster and his queen. But what will happen when he saves a woman from death? What will happen when she finds out what he really is? I really enjoyed both of these characters. They bring life to the story and make it easy to read. I enjoyed watching their growth as well as the plot’s growth throughout the story. This is a fast paced, hard to put down story that you don’t want to miss. This is a great story and I highly recommend it.
