The book was not particularly interesting. The majority of its content resembled an academic lecture rather then a vampire novel. The 'vampires' in question only make two very brief appearances. This book's sole redeeming feature was that it introduced me to the movie it was sequel to, and the anime Blood+. Both were infinitely more interesting.

It's been a while since I've seen Blood: The Last Vampire, but I would say this is more like Stray Dog in feel. Politics and philosophy play in heavily. I really enjoyed it, but be aware that this book spends more time on dread and anxious paralysis than on action. It gives some interesting backstory on Saya and the Chiropterans.
