At the Afterlife Academy of Exceptionally Dark Arts, Lily Fielding is a measly trainee who dreams of one day becoming a Savior—those who visit vampire-infested high schools and put down the undead with their deadly crossbows. When Lily and her classmates Alice and Cara begin their latest assignment, it seems like just another run-of-the-mill gig: they’re to simply spot the Vamplayer—part vampire, part player—identify the popular girl he’s set his sights on, and befriend her before the Vamplayer can turn her to do his bidding. Before long, however, the Vamplayer sets his sights on Lily's friends, and she is left to face the threat alone while protecting her friends from the dark forces she has sworn to resist.
Lily Fielding is a vampire who dreams of becoming a Savior one day. Saviors are those kick-ass people who battle the Vamplayers. But for now, Lily is stuck as one of the Sisters, the third one in fact. Alice and Cara, her fellow sisters, and her are assigned to a school to investigate. But Alice and Cara are targeted and that leaves Lily to face the threat alone.
I thought this was a great vampire book with all the tension and stuff. Lily is always on the edge about the Vamplayer and that make the mission all the more believable. Something happened then Alice and Cara couldn't help her anymore.
I thought Lily and her boy friends were pretty kick-ass in this story. Oh, c'mon. They took on a Royal Vamplayer themselves (until help came, of course)! That was pretty wicked awesome, man. I was like, "Yes, beat that kid." *just realized I sound too violent* Oh well.. you know what I mean :)
This was a pretty original vampire story-- considering the Vamplayers and what not. Give this a try :) You won't be disappointed.

I've never heard of this one before but it sounds pretty cool! I like the idea of the vampires being players! I've never seen vampires like that before. Great review :)
