Motral's View on the 3rd Book

Dear mortals, we have received a letter from a mortal woman who was given the highest honor of reading Shayne's 3rd book 'Of Light and Darkness: The Vampire's Hourglass'. Here is what this mortal has to say on the book. 

"I have been following Shayne Leighton's journeys in her amazing books for quite some time now. Just recently I was given the highest opportunity to read her third book so that others may see what to expect when they purchase it on October, 28, 2014. 

Last time in the Vampire's Reflection we were left with Valek making a very tough and difficult decision for Charlotte. Charlotte near death said some very harsh words to the ones she cares about and in this third installment she is regretting on ever saying those harsh words. The vampires who has sought to harm Charlotte behind Valek's back are a walking target for the next person(s) to be in a heep of trouble. 

Sarah, Mr. Trinozka, and Edwin are trying to find a certain object for Baba Yaga in exchange for getting rid of the curse that is killing Charlotte on the inside. It is only a matter of time before time runs out. 

Valek, is now in the control of the Parlament. He is placed with a ton of responsibility that could either be a blessing or a curse on him latter on. Why are the Elders wanting Charlotte to come to Abelim? What is it about Charlotte that everyone wants her either dead or alive? 

Nikolai a normal human being, or so we think, is given a huge blow to the head when he discovered who he truly is in 'Vampire's Reflection'. Will he accept or deny his true fate? Will he be there for Charlotte and Valek or betray them? Also, is there a new form of friendship going on with him and Charlotte while Valek is away? Is Charlotte going to fall for him or stay with Valek? 

But the biggest person that everyone should learn to have a thorn in their side is; Aiden. What the heck happened to him when he attacked Charlotte? Did he live or die? Is he going to go after Charlotte while she is so vulnerable and no Valek there to protect her? What are his full plans on trying to regain the Regime since it has been left to rot to the ground after his demise in 'Vampire's Daughter'? 

All in all this book is the most intense one I have read so far and with the up-coming books all I can see in the futre of the main characters is one word: revenge. This is such an amazing book and I encourage you all to read this when it comes out on October 28th! This is very well detailed and the story is getting more and more intense! 5 of 5 stars!"

We of the Occult are THRILLED to have such an amazing review from this reader! We hope that many more of you can send your reviews to Shayne so she can send them to us! 

We are sad to post this for all you mortals. At this moment our dear friends Frank and Shayne are no longer with us here in our world. They had to return to their world to live on in their lives. Our Occult is already missing them but know that they will come back soon. On a more upbeat, we have discovered that Shayne has FINALLY released the date for the 3rd book of our world and the lives of Valek and Charlotte. 

For those who have not read about our world then we strongly encourage you to not read on. 

Last time we followed Valek and Charlotte we saw that they were trying to figure out what why Charlotte was always having these "cravings" to make Valek bite her to make them go away for a short time. But alas they kept coming back even more stronger than before.

The little band of misfits who had returned from the Regime with Charlotte and Valek are beginning to have second thoughts of their new found life. Will they continue to stay with Valek and Charlotte in peace or turn against them?

Nikkoli is a new being to enter into our world and has powers that he cannot understand let alone comprehend them. How did he come to have them when he, his father and grandfather have had them and yet could not understand them as well? Will he gain the answers he desires and how will he find out the truth of who he really is?

What happened to Aiden after he was attacked? Is he alive or dead? If he is, will he seek revenge on Valek and Charlotte? For us who have seen what vengeance can do to someone it never ends well for them; only misery.

But the biggest question of all; How far is Valek going to go to save Charlotte from these cravings and will his decision be a wise one or not. His loyalty is going to be placed in a very tight spot and those of us who have read his decision still are blown away. This choice will change not only his life, but the love of his life as well; Charlotte.

Now our dear mortal friends, the choice is now yours; are you up to see what is in store for our friends or turn against us and side with the Regime and turn us in. The choice is yours but be warned that if you do turn against us, the results may be deadly for us sine we are doing this in secret for you to enjoy our realm.

Good luck and we hope that you chose to continue to follow us and read more on the many adventures that are yet to come.
