Blood+Oath


 * Working With a Vampire: FOR LIFE **

**Review for: __Blood Oath__ **

**Author: Christopher Farnsworth **

**Review by: Lauryn **


 * The book, __Blood Oath__  by Christopher Farnsworth is a supernatural story you only find once and truly a book worth praise. “An irresistible page-turner “ and “a complex and unnervingly realistic tale,” says The Washington Post. Characters develop beautifully throughout the book and there is practically non-stop action for the entire reading of the novel. Though this writing is for more mature readers, it would be a great read for a middle/high school students. The exposition is very interesting, by far, and the rest of the plot leads up to the resolution, but will keep you hooked the entire bout. Overall, __Blood Oath__  is truly a great book that keeps you reading until you’ve read cover-to-cover! **


 * Furthermore, Farnsworth has created some outstanding characters who, I believe, are very are very memorable in their own ways. The main character, Zach, was very brave throughout the book since from having your ‘not too far off’ dream of becoming Chief of Staff at the Whitehouse to becoming the new current “babysitter” of the president's vampire. And being this new liaison means accompanying this vampire into dangerous missions of defeating the supernatural beings that would be considered a threat to the United States (and the rest of the world). Zach also tends to be humorous even in the most dangerous/serious situations. Such as when meeting up with the president, also including the VP, Cade (the vampire), and the retired liaison Griff, to talk about the recent possible danger to America. He was still making jokes throughout the meeting. The other main character, Cade, is (as you already know) the president’s vampire. Cade is a very serious (but loyal) profile but would most likely attack, then ask questions, but he is still a very well-made personality. He has his quirks, for saying outdated slang pick out pieces of conversation that he thinks is funny even though it may really not be considering that he is over 140 years old. To sum up, Farnsworths persons are very well planned out such as Cade slowly warming up to his new liaison. In addition, the way that they grow on you and how slowly, but surely, you learn more about their amazing personality and their past. They are easy to follow and are wonderful characters. **


 * Moreover, the plot Farnsworth has created is action-packed and very humorous and this just suite the characters perfectly. Farnsworth keeps you interested and wanting to see if Zach and Cade save the world or not. Firstly, you have the amazing exposition of Zach becoming Cade’s new liaison and the coming bit is Cade and Zach trying to find out what is the menace and then pursue it and stop the monstrosity for good. Another interesting chunk is that throughout the story there are many flashbacks for certain characters and then you learn more about that certain character. Farnsworth had found a way to tie these flashbacks to the plot itself and make this great story make sense. There are many types of conflicts, such as man vs. self, man vs. man, and man vs. supernatural, and these are all just added to make the plot a lot more affecting. In conclusion, you want to read all of the book to find out if Zach and Cade overcome their challenges and really do save the world, the most wonderful type of resolution to read! **


 * “An irresistible page-turner,” claims //The Washington Post//, and many others who say similar types of quotes. Though there are no awards for this book, it clearly deserves it. Christopher Farnsworth, the author of this amazing novel, says from his book, “Couldn’t you just hypnotize her or something? / It doesn’t work that way,” a quote that is recognized from __Blood Oath__  itself. T. Karr from amazon.com lets out, “It’s like a “buddy movie” where some of the bad guys and even some of the good guys just happen to be supernatural.” //Publisher’s Weekly// acclaims, “Reads like a cross between P.N. Elrod’s historical vampire adventures and Thomas Greania’s conspiracy thrillers. **


 *  In other words, you should read <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">__Blood Oath__ <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> because it’s an awesome read with horror, action, and humor and the way that Zach’s life changes so drastically makes you want to read on. You can easily connect with the characters since they are so well-thought out that it’s easy. Moreover, to follow along with the story isn’t that hard if you just read it. Then you know pretty much about what the other characters are thinking, considering that the point of view is changing so much throughout the book. If you enjoy the wonderful novel <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">__Blood Oath__ <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> then you would enjoy the second and third books in the series, <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">__The President’s Vampire__ <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> and <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">__Red, White, and Blood__ <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> also by Christopher Farnsworth. For the claims are “I felts like I had just stepped of a rollercoaster,” by Necroscope84 from amazon.com, this is said T <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;">__he President’s Vampire__ <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">, but for the other book there are similar sayings. This truly is a wonderful book and you really should read it! **
