About this ebook

An immortal vampire’s existence is disrupted by an unexpected danger—and an even more unexpected romance—in this first book in the New York Times bestselling Thirst young adult series by Christopher Pike.

At five thousand years old, the vampire Alisa thought she was the last of her kind…and that she was smart enough to stay out of trouble. But now someone is stalking her—someone who wants her dead. At the same time, Alisa can’t help but be drawn to Ray, a mortal who may have the key to her survival.

Originally published as the first three books in The Last Vampire series, The Last Vampire, Black Blood, and Red Dice are now available together in one volume—the first book in the renamed Thirst series.

Just no. I felt the story just fell flat, the romance plot between Sita and Ray felt forced, and that the whole story in general just lagged and was missing something; that magic. However, me being me, once I start a series I like to finish the series. I'm not a fan of Twilight at all but the Twilight series was better than this series, I felt; even the Vampire Diaries was better. So if you're looking for another Twilight, or even The Vampire Diaries, this isn't the book for you.

I thought I could give this book a try which failed miserably because it was that boring. The book had the action but the romance just fell flat and just seemed fake, the story line was such a drag and didn't light a spark of interest in me.

Love the spiritual dimension to the last vampire books. The protagonist having lived through most of history makes for fascinating reading. The main character is layered and well developed and is a pleasure to observe people and the world through.
