Vasilisa Dragomir is a Moroi princess, a mortal vampire with the extremely rare gift for harnessing the Earth's magic. The last in her line, Lissa must be protected at all times from the shadows that threaten to consume her as she uses her magic, as well as from the Strigoi, the evil vampires - the ones that never die. The powerful blend of human and vampire blood that flows through Rosemarie Hathaway make her a Dhampir. Being a Dhampir means Rose has to have a dedicated life to protecting her friend from the evil Strigoi who are insistnet about making Lissa one of them, or killing her in the process. 12 royal Moroi families must be protected by the Dhampirs - their Guardians. After only 2 years of freedom, Lissa and Rose were captured and taken back to St. Vladimir's Academy, a school for the Moroi and the Guardians to be. But inside the school's iron gates life is even more wracked with danger...Strigoi are always close by.
The best thing about this book is that it's got everything. Moroi, Dhampirs, Strigoi, a bit of romance, adventure, good and evil, as well as ordinary problems like boyfriends, school and detention. To me it's got everything that makes a vampire novel good.
I don't like how Dhampirs can't have kids together, but Moroi can. It's just kinda messed up.
If you like this, you might also like the Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer and The House of Night series by P.C. and Kristin Cast.
Rating: 5/5
