Yesterday (Friday) went on a quick roadtrip to Miri to accompany the Bebeh to look for his boots. He likes wearing boots =P I picked him up at 8am, arrived in Miri at 10.30am .. this and that and back in BSB by 4.30pm. Quick eh? Unfortunately we didnt find any, so continued on our shopping trip to Manggis Mall and Yayasan.. sigh, no luck either. We decided to go back at rest, arriving at home by 7pm. Haha far different from my usual Miri trips where at 7pm, I’m still stuck at the border. Yayness for no immigration queue~
What I did get was a new book “Blue Blood” by.. erm.. forgot, but yes, you guessed it, another vampire story. Synopsis sounded interesting though, so I got the first book of the 4 series. I got through the first chapter last night and it was a different take again on vampires. I think I’m an expert already on dragons and vampires stories and how different authors spin their take.
Dragons for example, Kate Forsyth did a changeling type dragon, Melanie Rawn with her Sunrunners communicating with dragons, Anne MacCaffrey with her planet of Pern and dragons as destroyer of Thread, Eragon and of course the famous dragons of DragonLance series. I believe dragons are much more open to different interpretation.. hence the many styles, but i like them all, mostly.
Vampires on the other hands are mostly standard nocturnal creatures who only comes out at night, and the rest gets played around with, such as allergy to garlic, crosses, have to sleep in coffins or not, how they were turned. I respect authors who experiments with the different characteristics but there’s only so much you can change until it doesn’t sound believable. Eg: Meyers who wrote Twilight. Hmmm vampires who comes out in the day and SHINES like crystals, ugh. I mean, I prefer Anne Rice, her formula works. Her Lestat is believable. But Edward Cullen? .. is downright rubbish. Sorry Twilight fans. I prefer having believable characteristics..
So what books do you love?
