Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So, you've been sired. What now? You have started the biggest adventure of your life, or should we say of your death. Or undeath. Things are never going to be the same again. You need a roadmap for your new existence. Forget all the old stuff. That's all gone now. It's time to face the future. You no longer need to worry about the fate of the ordinary human. All they have to look forward to is death. For you, provided you don't run into any pesky vampire slayers, you have all the time in the world ahead of you. How are you going to fill all this time, time without end? It's a privilege to be a vampire. You're one of the special ones, the chosen ones. You're nothing like the run of the mill masses with all their dreary jobs and dull lives. Jack Kerouac said, "The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'Awww!'" Vampires are these people. A cut above. Vampires have more bite, more penetration, more everything. This is your handbook to orient you to your undeath. Your transition will take a lot of getting used to. You'll be meeting entirely different people. You'll be mixing in new circles. You'll be leaving behind familiar family and friends. You'll be expanding your horizons. You'll be learning about the origins of vampires in ancient Egypt, and the Egyptians' extraordinary religious views based on pure magic. Are you ready for this? It's time for you to step into the spotlight. Now is your time. Your time to shine. You are one of the extraordinary ones! Enjoy!
Download or read book Slayer written by Kiersten White and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Will get Buffy fans up in their feels.” —Entertainment Weekly A New York Times and Publishers Weekly bestseller From bestselling author Kiersten White comes the first novel in a series set in the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer that introduces a new Slayer as she grapples with the responsibility of managing her incredible powers that she’s just beginning to understand. Into every generation a Slayer is born… Nina and her twin sister, Artemis, are far from normal. It’s hard to be when you grow up at the Watcher’s Academy, which is a bit different from your average boarding school. Here teens are trained as guides for Slayers—girls gifted with supernatural strength to fight the forces of darkness. But while Nina’s mother is a prominent member of the Watcher’s Council, Nina has never embraced the violent Watcher lifestyle. Instead she follows her instincts to heal, carving out a place for herself as the school medic. Until the day Nina’s life changes forever. Thanks to Buffy, the famous (and infamous) Slayer that Nina’s father died protecting, Nina is not only the newest Chosen One—she’s the last Slayer, ever. Period. As Nina hones her skills with her Watcher-in-training, Leo, there’s plenty to keep her occupied: a monster fighting ring, a demon who eats happiness, a shadowy figure that keeps popping up in Nina’s dreams… But it’s not until bodies start turning up that Nina’s new powers will truly be tested—because someone she loves might be next. One thing is clear: Being Chosen is easy. Making choices is hard.
