Product Description:
My father always said fear was a weakness. Well, that's easy to say when you don't have to worry about vampire slayers or holy water. I hate fear, but undead life goes on. In the two months since I was attacked in the hospital morgue and turned into a vampire, I've killed my evil sire, Cyrus, fallen in love with my new sire, Nathan, and have even gotten used to drinking blood. Just when things are finally returning to normal--as normal as they can be when sunlight can kill you--Nathan becomes possessed. And then he slaughters an innocent human.
Now it's my job to find Nathan before the Voluntary Vampire Extinction Movement does, because they're just waiting for an excuse to terminate him--and anyone foolish enough to help him. But it gets worse. It turns out that Nathan's been possessed by one of the most powerful and wicked vampires alive--the Soul Eater. And who knows what vile plan he's concocted?
With the Soul Eater and my possessed sire on the loose, I have a lot to fear. Including being killed. Again.

I got 30 pages into this book and I just couldn't keep reading it. What's the point? She's going to continue to be a tough, angry woman who is going to find new ways to be a better vampire and to save the guys that she loves despite the fact that one of them is evil..... This is such Cliche' crap!!!
There are authors writing good, innovative Urban Fantasy. Armintrout just isn't one of them.

Loved it! Couldn't put it down and can't wait to read Book 3!
Fun series.

This book was annoyingly overly emotional. Just everyone crying, it was pathetic. It had a good story but I couldn't stomach most of the page fillers to get to it. Book one was definitely better.

The very first book in this series was okay, interesting enough to make me want to read the second. I wish I hadn't wasted my time. I could barely finish, and the only way I could finish was skimming the incredibly boring parts (which is a vast portion of the book). Also, I don't like the way the book skips from very first person perspective to third constantly. Either have all characters in third, or lets just see the story from Carrie's very first person POV. Slipping back and forth to make your story easier to write is a cop-out. It made the writing come across amaturish. And the story was just plain boring, did I mention that? I'm not interested at all in finishing this series.

My review of the very first book "The Turning" was less than stellar. I had qualms about whether I would like this series. I can say that I am extremely glad that I went on to read "Possession". Here we meet up with Carrie and Nathan, cozy and content until Nathan becomes possessed. About the same time, miles away, Cyrus, Carries evil and dead very first sire, is pulled from a deathly limbo to find himself in this world again, and human. Human Cyrus is maybe even more interesting the cruel, pshyco vampire Cyrus in his quest to face his previous nature and the unimaginable acts of terror he had inflicted for decades. Carrie unfortunately still is just not a very likeable heroine. She is too easily swayed from side to side, not just in her opinions but in her men as well. I also kept forgetting she was a vampire for some reason as I read this book! Nathan too is sort of dull, even when possessed. He is so busy wrapped up in his past that we never really see him as who he is in the context of the current story. Max, the vampire assassin and Bella, the werewolf assassin make interestng side characters whose portions of the book were among the most enjoyable. The entire very first half of the book was incredibly exciting to me, watching Cyrus's humanity unfold. There isn't tons of actual action in this book, but there was enough to keep me from truly missing it. My biggest complaint came at the close of the novel, which to me truly felt unfinished. I understand a series is supposed to leave some loose ends to intrigue you enough to grab the subsequent volume, but it should at least satisfy the reader on most levels. I really feel here I was left hanging. Overall, I found this story to be much more enjoyable than the "Turning" and I look forward to seeing if this uphill arc continues for the third installment. This is a good book in the realm of vampire fiction.
