I tried really hard to like this book, but 12 chapters in I had to give up.

The story begins with Kagan (a vampire) giving the world a warning that in one week's time they would take over the world and kill all humans. He actually kills a girl on screen in a very gory manner. The story continues from there with Ben a member of the Mexican Mafia as our protagonist......I'm sorry I just couldn't relate to this character. Ben and his cousin are at the airport in LA when the attacks begin and from there the story goes from awful to worse. Lots of action, blood and gore. It felt like I was reading a screenplay for a really bad action/horror flick.

When I read the synopsis I thought this story had real potential and it's a new author which I usually enjoy, but the book doesn't live up to its promise. There was so much gore and not much plot that I was not only repulsed by he descriptions but also started getting bored.

However if action/horror/sci-if is your thing, give it a try. You might enjoy it. It's just not for me.
