My Thoughts:
Chronicles of the Undead is a decently good short story. It's a diary in three parts. The first part is about Samuel Harrington, the father who becomes a vampire. The second part is about Edmund Harrington, the son who becomes a vampire hunter. The third part is about Charlotte Harrington, the granddaughter who follows in her father's footsteps. I love reading stories in diary formats, and this book was no exception. It made for a quick, fun read. I didn't have a favorite character. The character I liked the least was Eleanor. She was a very weak woman. She let her husband beat her, belittle her, and generally treat her horribly. She took it without complaint, or telling someone, or leaving. Otherwise, the book was good. I just wish it would have been a little longer, and gave more information about what happened to Edmund after his journal entry ended. I recommend this book for vampire fans.


I give Chronicles of the Undead: 3/5.
