Here's what people are already saying about Vampire Origins. 


"Riley Banks is a very talented author who creates worlds that you can get lost in. Vampire Origins is a complex world that has many characters and back stories. The author does a fabulous job of not confusing the reader, but still supplying the needed information for the story and what has lead up to the current issues. Scarlett is a determined, stubborn, and very likeable character. The fact that she is a teenager and still finding her way, adds depth and more meaning to all that she learns along the way. From the time I picked up this book until the last page I was captivated by the challenges and life altering situations that Scarlett and her family kept finding themselves in. Fans of The Vampire Diaries and The Vampire Academy will love Vampire Origins!"

"This was so good. But a short read.. I want MORE..... Can not wait for the next book.. twist and turns. WELL done.."

"A fantastic Vampire story. Had a lot of nail biting moments and I was hooked from the first page until the last. I look forward to reading the next book in the series."

"It captured my attention and each chapter had me wanting to read more. I loved how the author incorporated historical facts and personalities into her storyline and I enjoyed her explanation of how vampires that are "born" vs. vampires that were "changed" differ characteristically. I actually found the secondary characters to be most interesting (particularly Alex) and am looking forward to the next in this series to learn more about them."

"I can't wait for the next instalment to this series. The characters sucked me in with all sorts of feelings of love and grrr hate :) book 1 has some great twists and turns most of which shocked me - I didn't see them coming! A great read."

"Wonderful Read!!! loved all of the characters and the story line...way to keep the reader wanting more..can't wait for book two."

"This book would have to be one of my fastest read books of all time. I couldn't put it down. The characters are believable, some I loved and of course some I hated. The storyline was easy to follow and the ending certainly left me wanting more. I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone especially those that are a fan of this genre."
