Resumen del Editor

Vampires...they ache, they love, they thirst for the forbidden. They are your friends and lovers, and your worst fears.

“A major new voice in horror fiction...an electric style and no shortage of nerve.” (Booklist)

At a club in Missing Mile, N.C., the children of the night gather, dressed in black, look for acceptance. Among them are Ghost, who sees what others do not; Ann, longing for love; and Jason, whose real name is Nothing, newly awakened to an ancient, deathless truth about his father, and himself.

Others are coming to Missing Mile tonight. Three beautiful, hip vagabonds - Molochai, Twig, and the seductive Zillah, whose eyes are as green as limes - are on their own lost journey, slaking their ancient thirst for blood, looking for supple young flesh.

They find it in Nothing and Ann, leading them on a mad, illicit road trip south to New Orleans. Over miles of dark highway, Ghost pursues, his powers guiding him on a journey to reach his destiny, to save Ann from her new companions, to save Nothing from himself....

“An important and original work...a gritty, highly literate blend of brutality and sentiment, hope and despair.”(Science Fiction Chronicle)

bad french

its a wonferful novel. i read the print version snd loved it, but tge narrator just cant pronounce the french names of the quarter.

Teen dreams

This was my favorite book through most of my teens. It informed most of my aesthetic and filled me with the knowledge that I was only one of many weirdos out there.
I downloaded it a fit of nostalgia and enjoyed it thoroughly. It had the bonus effect of dragging forth some old memories. It is high goth drama and can be a bit over the top at times but that only adds to its charm and how much it sang to me through my f**ked up teens.

okay

I read this as a young goth teenage misfit and it spoke to me then. now it's just a nostalgic read like visiting a past life.

not the right narrator

I loved this 20 years ago, still love it now. but this narrator had me wanting to pull my hair out.

really messed up

I loved this book as a younger angsty teen. It just didn't hold up as an adult.

Generation X

The narration seemed over the top at times, but it was nonetheless wonderful. The inflections screamed Generation X, and it made me nostalgic about the 90s. I also loved the numerous references to the Bauhaus and Cocteau Twins albums. It gave me warm fuzzies

I did not enjoy as much as Drawing Blood, but I would definitely listen to this again. It was not time wasted.

Simply Amazing

If you're a fan of Twilight, you should probably avoid this book. This is what vampire stories should be; dark and dangerous. I loved every bonechilling, eye-opening, heart-pounding second of it. Not for the squeamish or prudish but for literally everyone else... except Twilight fans.

Great book. Terrible narration .

A great book. Though unfortunately the narrator makes it sound like it's for preteens. Returned.

No thanks

This book is trash. Tried to tough it out because Audible wouldn’t refund my credit but this book sucks in a bad way.

Immature trendy teen angst.

If I were 15 I might like it more. It’s an okay portrayal of the goth scene late 80s early 90s but highly homoerotic (vampires, of course) but it’s over the top, as well as incest, etc.
