St. Vladimir's Academy isn't just any boarding school-it's a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They've been on the run, but now they're being dragged back to St. Vladimir's-the very place where they're most in danger...Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy's ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi-the world's fiercest and most dangerous vampires-make Lissa one of them forever.

I'm a sucker for vamps, but I'm fully aware that most of the time there isn't any redeeming value to the tale. Which is why I was happily surprised at the level of re-invention of the vampire mythos. The only real story issue I had was the way in which the plot lines culminate. Perhaps I missed some clues through the story, but it felt a little like going down a white water in a tube, where everything rushed in with little to no control in either my hands or those of the protagonist. Which is not in any way to say it wasn't fun. I think I'll add the next book in this series to my everlong queue.
