Last Breath The Morganville Vampires Rachel Caine Books

Well, Last Breath was certainly an improvement over the previous book! And it’s set over a super short time frame which is one of my favorite plot devices! As Eve and Michael are preparing for their engagement party, there’s some unrest within town. They don’t have the Founder’s permission to get married, humans are starting to band together against the vampires, and someone strange has just shown up at the town border. Once again, Claire is at the center of it, but she can’t save everyone this time.

Last Breath was so good! It really kept me on the edge of my seat as Claire and Friends go from one sticky situation to the next. I also thought the alternating POV actually worked this time given that most of the book is of the race against the clock nature. Everyone is running around doing something before it’s too late, and something is going on with our dear Claire. We also get into Amelie’s head to learn about this new threat in town: a second breed of vampire! I actually really loved this twist on vampirism. It’s unique and it makes an odd kind of sense.

I don’t want to give anything away about Last Breath, because it’s basically nonstop twists, turns, and surprises! That middle portion was especially intense, because I wasn’t sure which direction the author was going to take it! Really anything would have been possible! So, what’s next for our friend’s in Morganville after all of these changes?

Last Breath The Morganville Vampires Rachel Caine Books Reviews

Let me start out by saying that I LOVE the Morganville Vampire series and have talked some friends into reading them and now they are fans.

I bought the book on the day that it came out (how disappointing to find NUMEROUS errors in the version).

The book started out slow - I'm not sure that I am a fan on reading a book with various chapters written from different points of view. I do like how the author has made the characters grow as the series progresses. I like how she brings back things characters/events from previous books in the series. There were some parts at the beginning of the book that made me smile/chuckle. The middle of the book was AMAZING. I was shocked, mesmerized, engrossed and hated to put it down. But then, in my opinion, the book took a turn and fell flat. I'm not a fan of what the author did to Claire - I just don't understand how she could bring her back from ghost/dead to being a human - I could understand if, like Michael, she had to come back as a vampire, but to become human after having "died" seems like a HUGE stretch - even for a fiction novel. The storyline about the other species of vampire was interesting, but the ending left me wanting. I can't imagine a Morganville without the Founder. If Myrin can bring Claire back, how can he not fix Amelie?

I was so looking forward to this book, but after reading it I am frustrated. I enjoyed parts of the book, but overall, I am disappointed.
This is my favorite Morganville book to date, no doubt about it. I can't even begin to explain how refreshing it is for me to read a book in a series that is so far along and still be impressed and shocked by it. Rachel Caine has truly stepped up her game here. She has come up with a plot twist so unique that it has the town of Morganville completely turned around and twisted from inside out. She made some shocking plot twists that I never would have seen coming. It always impresses me when an author is willing to do something controversial and daring with one of her most important characters. Caine does that here. And I am left with a lot of questions. Will there be effects from the author's big decision here? What exactly is the extent of the big surprise? Is it over and done with or will there still be shocks and changes to come? All of that just deals with one character. And "Last Breath" is about so very much more. Characters we thought we knew (um, Amelie) are making harsh decisions that will effect the residents (living and undead) in a dire way.

I fear giving away too much about this book. I knew nothing except that it was the newest Morganville book. That fact alone made the book an automatically pre-order. However, I loved every page of "Last Breath". It starts innocently enough with Michael and Eve planning their big wedding. We get quite a few revelations in that department that had me an emotional roller coaster. As much as I love Claire and Shane, I adore Eve and Michael. The the big things start unfolding with the new threat to the town and I knew that this book was something special.

I want to add a couple things. Firstly, the previous book "Bite Club" was my least favorite Morganville book. It wasn't bad by any means but I was left wondering if maybe the series was heading down a different path. All my fears were put at rest with the new book. "Bite Club" was like the calm before the storm. I am truly thrilled that Rachel Caine has recently announced the contract for several more Morganville books...I believe it will bring the series up to fifteen novels in total. I also want to state that I adore Mernin and there is a lot of him in "Last Breath". In fact everyone we know and love shows up in this book. The viewpoints switch from Claire to a few other characters. I don't know that I am a huge fan of this technique but that was the only way to show everything we needed to see in "Last Breath".

I can't recommend "Last Breath" or this series as a whole any more than I do. This is a must read series. If you are a fan, don't wait to read this one. If you haven't started the series yet, don't wait a second longer. Buy "Glass Houses" right away and dig in.
Wow. Just wow. I can't believe who died in this one. Shocking. There were so many great twists and turns. A new mysterious enemy that is really kicking the vampires' butts too. This one had so much heart in it--we got to see how much so many characters care about someone. I loved that we experienced the point of view of Amelie, Shane, Michael, and Eve. It was really cool to see things through their eyes. Non-stop tension and action. I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just say I laughed, I gasped, and I cried. It was that good!
