CHANCE IN HELL

Great title. This YA novel by Patrick Kampman is exciting, funny, action-packed, sexy, well-written and charming.  All these adjectives, and for a vampire hunter book meant for teenagers.  It is a great read for anyone who’s not put off by vampires.

Chance falls into vampire killing honestly when his girlfriend is murdered by the animal-like vampire attacking students on campus. He soon joins a vampire-hunting team working in Central Texas to eradicate the monsters, ending up in California for a related job after catastrophe strikes and he is the only survivor.  And there he meets the real vampires.  And werewolves.  And witches.  And fairies.  And they are cute and sexy and they like him, and protect him.  All of a sudden Chance wonders what the hell he’s been doing killing them.

Humor-infused, full of action and with likable, believable characters, Chance In Hell deserves a spot in everyone’s vampire collection. Chance In Hell by Patrick Kampman. Find it as a Kindle book on Amazon.com
