During the last two years, everyone’s attention was caught in the romantic film series entitled “the twilight saga”. The films have become a phenomenon all over the world and have motivated thousands of teenagers to read the four books, from which the movies were inspired. The books describe the story of a 17-year old girl (Bella Swan) who falls in love with a vampire (Edward Cullen). In the third book we’ve seen Bella being chased by an army of newborn vampires. However not everyone knows the other side of the story. In her latest book, “the short second life of bree tanner”, Stephenie Meyer describes the dark life of the newborn vampires.
The book is focused on one vampire actually, Bree Tanner. Bree is not just a 15-year old vampire; she is intelligent, a characteristic that might save her life, or become the reason of her own death.
The story is set in the dark streets of Seattle and it is later moved to the forests of Forks. The immortal girl, curious as she was, she starts realising the lie on which her new life has been built on. Why hasn’t Riley, their leader, told the newborns that vampires can survive in the sunlight? Who is the mysterious woman who creates the newborns and what is the game she has planned for all of them, including her so called lover - Riley? Who are the vampires with the dark cloaks? Who is their real enemy? On her journey to revealing the truth she found a friend in another vampire’s face, Diego’s.
What follows is a breathtaking story of romance and mystery. A race to stay alive, a fight to save the person you care about the most. The tragedy and the strong emotions come to a climax at the point when the reader realises what has really happened to Diego, when Bree falls in the trap Riley has set for her.
The book, with its vivid descriptions and the clear pictures of the supernatural world, comes to prove once again the writing skills of its author. The readers will literally sink into the book. It is a story that will thrill every reader, independent of age.
