About this ebook

One year ago, vampires killed Jessica Harris’s entire family, compelling her to become a vampire hunter in order to protect the small farming community that hates her.

Six months ago, a meth dealer put a price on Jessica’s head.

Two days ago, a hit-gone-wrong released a vampire more powerful than Jessica has ever known. A vampire she created.

Today, in pursuing her monster across the Kansas prairie, Jessica uncovered a conspiracy that threatens to wipe an entire town out of existence.

Tonight, she fights.

In his gritty Vampires of the Plains series, Alan Ryker takes vampires out of the cities and places them on the sun-bleached western prairie. Blood Tells True continues the Harris family saga begun in Burden Kansas, but is a complete tale that can be enjoyed on its own.

    After finishing Burden Kansas (Vampires of the Plains), I couldn't help myself. I had to continue on right away with part two of the series Blood Tells True. To be honest, at first I didn't see where the author could take the story, but he was able to continue it on in a believable way.

    **HERE THERE BE SPOILERS FOR ANYONE WHO HASN'T READ BURDEN KANSAS**

    Jessica is the sole survivor in her family. She exists now solely to track down and kill any vampires she can find. In fact, she likes to track them and practice fighting them to hone her skills. Unfortunately, one escapes. The story continues with her efforts to find the escapee which leads her to, of course, more vampires.

    The action scenes are very well written and Jessica is a well fleshed out character, but we are not spared the fact that Jessica's life is rather empty. She has no one, no family, no friends, no one. She's lonely, stubborn and a complete BADASS.

    I don't like to go to far into the plot with reviews because I, as a reader, don't like that. I like to discover the story for myself. I will say that I didn't like this story quite as much as I liked Burden, but definitely enough so that I will be onboard for the next installment of the series

    It's been a year or so since I read the first book in this series so I went back and reread it and it was just as good the second time. The second book, LOVE IT. The story continues with Jessica picking up where her uncle left off and she has become quite the vampire hunter. Lots of good action and excellent story and makes for a very enjoyable read. Great way to spend an afternoon in the sun and look forward to any further in the series!
