Publisher's summary

"How can I describe the heaven that is your taste? I can't. There aren't enough superlatives..."

Former Soviet surgeon Roman Ivanescu honors his Hippocratic Oath never to do harm by working at a blood bank in Manhattan. Quenching his violent thirst without killing a soul, Roman resists his natural urges and dances on the edge of sanity. Entranced by his first taste of her, Roman hunts down prima ballerina Maiko Himura, who awakens in him a passion he thought long dead. But when Roman finds out his new love has just a few weeks left on earth, he must make a terrible choice. And for every gift, there is a price.

A vampire's passionate confession to his beloved, J.T. Geissinger's The Last Vampire transforms a classic predator into a man forced to make desperate choices for love.

Fantasic, inventive and passionate.

Fantastically narrated, Christopher Lane truly brings these characters to life.

Riveting!

The themes here may not be similar to some of the other books that JT has written, but the style is just as beautiful, if not more. This book was way too short. I would’ve love to continue to listen to the narrator tell his beautiful story. What an interesting perspective from a vampire. I really love this book and hope that JT will write others similar to this. The narrator was amazing as well!

Any additional comments?


I really enjoyed this story and loved how it was told through a letter confessional left for Maiko when she wakes, kinda sad ending though, beautiful but sad!

Loved this unique vampire tale of love

This is a short story that immediately sucks you in. I love the main character and the tail he shares with you.

Another example of how J.T. Geissinger gives readers an unexpected experience with a story we THINK we’ve all heard 1000 times before.

Oh, I loved this novella!

It's sweet and sad and perfect. Roaman has the most delightful dry sense of humor, which kept this story from becoming maudlin.

I was not expecting a HEA so, unlike other listeners. I was not disappointed by the ending. It's reminiscent of A Tale of Two Cities.

The narration is superb.
