I love paranormal fiction - it's so much better in print than in movies, and Last Rites is no exception! Reminded me of the old flick, "Army of Darkness" being the funniest horror movie I ever saw, and I'll say this is the best horror book I've read. I was Dracula for Halloween like 5 years in a row growing up so the vampire theme had me pretty well hooked. The opening chapter had my attention immediately because as a history buff myself, Kevin opens with historical events not that long ago and put a very unique and captivating spin on some recent historical figures that I quite enjoyed. This book is a great read for other sci-fi fans like me!
