"Book 5 of this series is one of the better books overall. The main problem with it however, is that if you have read the previous four, as soon as Sita has a flashback, you realize who the villain will be. The effect is that the reader is strung along for an engaging story with mysterious elements, at which point a deus ex machina is created that explains everything. The reader is left wondering how our main character with the photographic memory failed to remember something as important at this. One other gripe, is that if you have also read the "Remember Me" series, the villains at the end of this one will seem familiar to you; however that isn't too bad in itself as it ends up creating a sort of canon that all of Pike's book seem to be taking part in. Aside from these criticisms, I enjoyed this book more than book 2 or 4, but slightly less than books 1 and 3. Hopefully the next even numbered installment ends up being better than its predecessors."
"The agony of fulfilling one's purpose without outside thought interfering with ones ego, is hard--most especially if it is your own daughter you're trying to kill in order to save humanity.
The conflict between mother and daughter is completely gripping: you learn to hate Kalika although at the same time you love her. The more you hate her the more you'll learn to love her. For the reason that she takes almost totally after her mother.
This addition to this series would've been quite exceptional where it not for the inclusion of the barely believable introduction of the Sethians from the time of Ancient Egypt. Oh if Pike had only decided to cut that from the storyline and left it with only the predictions of Suzama as the supernatural element!
Book Details:
Title The Last Vampire 5: Evil Thirst Author Christopher Pike Reviewed By Purplycookie"
"This series incorporates a lot of Sita's ancient foes into her modern life. It's becoming...repetitive? But all the while, the plot twists are always welcome and...twisting! Great job Mr. Pike!"
"I think what is so memorable about these books, the reason that after ten years, I wanted to read them again, is how flawed the main character, Sita, is. By reading her adventures, we know that she only seeks to do good, but, sometimes we do bad things in the name of good.
Here, Sita must ultimately lose everything she ever wanted. That's rough."
