In all honesty, had I known this was a "vampire" novel, I probably would not have picked it up. It's not that I don't enjoy a good vampire novel, I've just become jaded to the glut of offerings out there.
The Taker caught me by surprise, much the same way the movie "From Dusk till Dawn" did when it suddenly became a much different movie about half way through. I knew there was some type of supernatural, otherworldly element in this book, it just started out as something completely different and I didn't see where this was going until I suddenly had my "aHa" moment.
In a way, I'm glad I didn't know and that I did end up reading this book. It was very enjoyable and since it's the first in a series (trilogy?), I will definitely be checking out the next one.
The main characters are not very likeable, but they are different and intriguing and manage to pull you into their story despite themselves. It will be very interesting to see where the author takes these people. And I definitely want to see what form revenge takes!!
