Second Chance


Second Chance
by Heather Brewer
The Slayer Chronicles, book two

The summer after Joss failed to kill the vampire Vladimir Tod, he gets a second chance to prove himself as a Slayer. He is sent to New York City to hunt down a serial killer that the Slayer Society believes is a vampire. It is up to Joss to lead his Slayer team, and through their detective work, they discover that there are actually four vampire brothers who are on the killing rampage. Joss must use all his skill to save the innocent people of New York City from the murderers. Joss's status as a Slayer depends on it. (Description from Amazon.com)

Though I mostly enjoy these books as I'm reading them, I don't really remember them that well afterwards...I suppose that's a type of review in itself, right? Like the first book, First Kill, Joss' story is full of action, danger, and deception. No one can be fully trusted and I know that I was kept on my toes throughout the book.

What I liked best about this book, though, was the way that the author promised readers much more of a background to Joss and Vlad's connections later in the series. Even as I was following along with Joss hunting down the serial killers plaguing New York City, I was really just dying to get more into his family's secrets and background...

I need to get my hands on the next book AND I really need to go back and read the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod series!

Full disclosure: Audio book received to review for SLJ
