The characters Drew Hayes created are wonderfully imaginative and very 3-D, described in detail and with interesting personalities, gifts, and histories. The story could easily be made for children or young adults, except there is a bit of adult language in there, and at the end of the last story the author (as if afraid this was going to end up being a children's book) was heavy handed with foul language. And, there is another bit of confusion here. The author and editor would have done well to just smooth all that out - it would work fine for "story time" at a school, but is annoying for an adult reader. This is, apparently and confusingly, a set of stories in series, that adds characters with each episode and spends some time reviewing and reintroducing and reminding the reader (listener) about previous events. Entertaining, story of a mild-mannered vampire
