WOOHOO! FIRST COMMENT! YEAH!

I don’t actually have anything to say, i just wanted the honor of being one of the first few commenters… But Team Human sounds cool, even if I’m still not entirely sure what it’s about.

Same as #2, um HI!

Team Human does sound cool. So… the tweet-up was yesterday at six? I’m confused. I don’t do Twitter (or Facebook for that matter), but confusing is confusing nonetheless.

@4: Confused is confused (instead of confusing is confusing) My fault being confused, not yours.

Oh, Scott, why yet ANOTHER vampire book? sounds interesting, but aren’t there ALREADY enough vampire-zombie-werewolf-type books on the market?

“On the day of the Judgement, the Leviathan and the Behemoth will fight in mortal combat, and the remaining flesh from the battle will provide food for the victorious, who survive the Judgement.”

I saw it on the shelves yesterday! It was kinda exciting.
I like how this book seems to be poking fun at all vampire archetypes. Anything that pokes fun at any archetypes is okay in my book. Heck, or anything that challenges completely changes the way we look at old archetypes. Say, for instance, why these vampires are different, or – like in this example – “why does everyone have a huge freaking crush on all these vampire hotties? Chyu.”
Which, btw @7, is why Twilight was so popular. Meyers challenged the previously known archetypes that Dracula (and all other related novels) set.
