There are books that really let you down, there are books that make you want to crawl in a hole and die, and there are books you'll cherish forever. With the young adult paranormal genre, it's very hit and miss. You get shitty books like the House of Night series by P.C Cast, and you get bloody brilliant books like the Downside Ghosts series by Stacia Kane.
Although I should do a blogpost on both those series, this one (as you already know from the title) is about the Morganville Vampires series by Rachel Caine. I picked up the first book, Glass Houses, a few years ago. I'm absolutely shattered that the last book, Daylighters, came out late last year and the series has ended. Let's face it, when it comes to books we adore, we just want them to be never-ending. Kinda sucks that it's the opposite, but it's for the best. (Problems of a book worm omg).
Rachel Caine is a brilliant author with many acclaimed books such as the Weather Warden and Revivalist series. She's also got a new book out, Prince of Shadows, but I haven't read that yet. Although she's got all these brilliant books, I don't think I'll love them as much as Morganville Vampires.
I'm sure I've blogged about this before, so I won't harp on about it too much but I thought I'd go into some detail about the Morganville Vampires web series. Last year Rachel Caine and a bunch of other important people launched a Kickstarter to raise $75,000 dollars to fund the web series. We hit our goal in under a month, which pleased the whole fandom and means that the web series will (hopefully) be great quality.
Filming recently wrapped, with the web series well under way. Hopefully it'll be up on Youtube (channel: Geek and Sundry) very soon, I really can't wait, especially because the casting is spot on. I couldn't imagine better actors/actresses to play such wonderful characters like Claire Danvers and Eve Rosser. Did I mention the guys are extremely hot?
