A People's History Of The Vampire Uprising by Raymond A. Villareal

This 'World War Z' knockoff sees vampires appear and take their place in society. There is no rising or uprising and the book just ends. There is a rational take on the medical, political, social and religious aftermath of vampires emerging. The vampires want to be part of society or do they? The vampires imprison humans for blood, plot to cause nuclear winter, make a dirty bomb, murder people and cause plane crashes and sabotage a hospital and corrupt the church and all that vampire plotting is dropped?!?!?

Best Lines:

“A psychotic indifference to anything resembling empathy, and lack of soul?”

“Gratitude proved to be short-lived.”

“Knew the consequences of his actions.”

"His ethos – which appeated to change with the circumstances or day of the week -”

“Since before any church.”

"Partner species.”

“Horrifying plans.”

“Do you think they're seriously considering this nuclear winter permanet night scenario?”
