It has been twenty-seven long years since the last sunrise.įor nearly three decades, vampires have waged war against humanity building their eternal empire even as they tear down our own. So, if the bookstore puts it in the wrong section alongside ILLUMINAE and you find your baby reading it whilst bleeding from the eyes, before you send me an angry mail, pls consider that I warned you.Empire of the Vampire Jay Kristoff € 14.99 This item arrived at both our stores within the past 8 weeks If ordered before 12:00h, this title will be in our store within 24 hours. It will be illustrated! Though I can't talk much more about that until next year.īut it's not a book for children. It is, as I may have previously mentioned, not a book for children. Honestly, there's a blood-drinking blowjob scene in there, so if that's not your thing, just back slowly out of the room while avoiding eye contact, I won't be offended (Hi, Mum).
