Blurb:
Once upon a time, a witch tried to break the vampire curse for her beloved, a Berkhano vampire. The spell warped the magical fabric of existence and resulted in the Rift. Landmasses split. Some sank into the sea while others rose. The world went from having hundreds of nations to having sixteen divisions walled off from each other by impenetrable dome-like barriers.
Valaria Valentin lives in the remnants of what was once a concrete and glass garden called Tokyo, but is now only known as Division 12. A purge of vampires followed the Rift and Valaria is the last of her kind in all of Japan. Venturing out only at night to hunt for priceless baubles in the radiation zone, Valaria lives a half-life, cut off from the world around her and despising her vampire curse. When Valaria’s one and only friend is kidnapped by the local witches, known as Kami, she is forced out of the darkness of night and into the brightness of day.
Seeking information from the local Yakuza, adversaries of the Kami, Valaria finds herself paired with the leader’s son, an infuriating rogue named Kenshin. As more locals are kidnapped, the pair races to uncover the Kami’s nefarious plans and rescue the missing before it’s too late.
With Kenshin at her side acting as both wise teacher and vexing tormentor, Valaria finds her world more intoxicating and more dangerous than ever before. Forced by Kenshin to confront her human past and her vampire future, Valaria may find herself remade before adventure’s end.
If Kenshin doesn’t kill her first.
And if she doesn’t kill him.

My Review:
Valaria Valentin lives in a city that is covered by a dome. Valaria and her family were vacationing in Tokyo when disaster strikes and her family are gone and she is left all alone. Valaria and her family are separated doing the Rift. After the Rift a witch, Hana and a vampire, Juro finds her and takes her in and become her adoptive parents. The Rift occurred because a witch tried to break the vampire curse.
At eighteen years old she is attacked by some men and left for dead her Juro finds her and has no choice but turn her into a vampire. As they say, when you are a vampire you get to watch everyone around you die and that is just what Valaria did as she was the last vampire in Tokyo.
When a good friend of Valaria’s is taken by the Kami witches she sets out to find her friend and bring her home. While she is out trying to find her friend she meets this guy Kenshin whom she doesn’t seem to get along with in the beginning. Valaria and Kenshin decide that it would be best for both of them if they joined forces to find her friend.
I love dystopian books and when I read the summary for Tokyo’s Last Vampire I had to read it. I love that the author took vampires and witches and then set them in a dystopian/apocalyptic world and with the last vampire that is just awesome. Tokyo’s Last Vampire is the kind of book that will grab your attention from the first page and won’t let go until you have read the last word, maybe. I would love to read more about Valaria, Kenshin and all the other characters and their world.
I would recommend Tokyo’s Last Vampire to all vampire, witches, and dystopian fans.
