Stolen Nights A Vampire Queen Novel Rebecca Maizel Books Reviews


After the wait since I read "Infinite Days" I think it was worth the wait. I was surprised with the characters and their personalities. From the start to the end I never would've guessed what happened. At the end, I finally was able to put things together and it made sense. I don't want to give anything away so I can't say much. I couldn't put it down, and with how the book ended I look forward to hearing about what the future holds. Hoping for another book!
I have to say that it is not as great as the first. But, I still read this book in just a couple of days. Rebecca has an interesting take on the Vampire legend. I need to know what happens next! Her first book is still mesmerizing and I enjoy rereading it. I am an avid reader and I enjoy all kinds of books, fiction, historical fiction, crime, mystery, a few non-fiction. I pick up her first book because the first few chapters intrigued me and I needed a book that would not take that long to read. I am very happy with my choice and hope that Rebecca keeps writing. Thanks!
The Vampire Queen series started out with a yawn. I am not a fan of Young Adult books anyway, but this was all I could find in the middle of the night so I took it. The first book was, as I said, rather a yawn but at least I got some sleep over the few days it took to read it; The second book had me wondering if it was the same author. It had many twists and turns in the plot and the minute I thought I had it pegged, I didn't. I think I will read the series as it emerges. The characters are interesting and Maisel seems to find new facets to her characters. In spite of myself I liked it. DEA
I have waited a long, long time for this book. I loved Infinite Days and this sequel has been years in the making. I was excited to pick up Stolen Nights especially considering the unbelievable ending of Infinite Days which was a cliffhanger to say the least. I love Lenah and Rhode and this book made me love them even more. It also made me love Vicken, like move to Scotland kind of love. The plot was good, nothing revolutionary as far as I'm concerned--I saw the twist coming. I had a minor problem with the portrayal of the Aeris but nothing that I couldn't overlook. What I had a major problem with was the Epilogue. This book's ending prior to the epilogue was perfect. It was heartbreaking and sweet, full of love and duty and sacrifice. But then the epilogue, which sets up for a next book I'm presuming, diluted that whole experience for me. I would have liked to linger a bit longer emotionally in the strength of her love and the sacrifice that she had made. I will say Infinite Days is a hard book to follow up, but Stolen Nights does a decent job and the end before the epilogue is quite powerful and moving. It's worth reading just for that.

Overall A-
After surviving the ritual she performed to restore Vicken's humanity, Lenah returns to Wickham's campus. Upon her return, Lenah witnesses a horrendous, yet familiar act. However, before processing the latest scene, Lenah encounters the legendary Aeris. Their visit is most unexpected, but it doesn't compare to the live, very mortal figure of Rhode Lewin. Lost in the moment, Lenah forgets Justin's presence at her side, though she quickly discovers Rhode's reappearance comes at a price. Amid the turmoil, a formidable opponent reveals itself. A foe more powerful than her coven, the aspiring vampire queen Odette.

I had several issues with this book, but let's begin with the bright spot--Vicken. His witty, snarky, and sarcastic comments are delivered at the right times. Ok, on to the issues.

Spoilers Below
Issue one Lenah Beaudonte. With every flip of the page, I wanted to smack some sense into her. Lenah's selfishness and teenage angst is too much to bear. She annoys to the point of dislike, not to mention her irritating internal monologue. Lenah's actions make it difficult to determine whether she is unable, unwilling, or indifferent to the lives tied to her own. With each bad decision, those closest to her and the Wickham community suffer devastating consequences.

Second issue The love triangle. I'm not a big fan of love triangles because rather than enhancing a story, most often it distracts, detracts, and occasionally takes over the plot, which is exactly what happens--plot hijacked. "Yes, Lenah Beaudonte. You and Rhode Lewin were born under the same stars. The course of your lives has brought you here--together, as soul mates" (14). Lenah's obsession with Rhode's lack of attention pushes her to Justin, the consolation prize, in which she attempts to alleviate her hurt, although their relationship isn't as it had been previously. "It seemed to me then I'd never again feel the joy and comfort of lying in his arms. I remembered how powerful his warmth had felt after being cold for hundreds of years. Warmth, touch, tenderness--that was Justin. He was a reminder that I could truly be alive and feel love. He'd helped me move on last year. I wanted him to help me now. Help me in the way only he could" (82). It irks me that Lenah picks back up with Justin sparing no regard for his feelings. Plus, her need to be wanted causes her to be careless and impulsive. Instead of harnessing energy to defeat Odette, Lenah pines for her first love and buries herself in his alternate. It's not until the last few chapters where Lenah is able reign in her emotions. Yet, she fails to separate her affection for Justin from the danger he imposes.

Third issue Discrepancies. While visiting the graveyard of her childhood home in 1730, etched in Lenah's tombstone are the dates 1400-1417 (24), which is completely inconsistent from book one where Rhode kills Lenah at the age of fifteen in 1418. "I was almost 16, had never left my parents' orchard, and the most beautiful man in the world stood in from of me." (Infinite Days, 49) Also, the epilogue hints toward Justin being a vampire and responsible for student disappearances, which wouldn't make sense according to the Aeris' statement to Lenah, "Every person you murdered will live again, as will those killed by the vampires you created. They will never meet you--because you won't become a vampire. It will be as though you had never met" (16).

After such a long wait, I was disappointed in the novel, which differed greatly from the snippet included in the back of book one; and the deviation of the storyline from such a promising start in the series. Vicken, along with the last three chapters saved the book. Even though I didn't like Stolen Nights as much as Infinite Days, I will continue on with the series because it started so strong and I believe that it could have a great finish.
So, I always feel guilty when I stop a book in the middle but I could not carry on with this one. It's not a bad book I just think I left it on my bookcase for too long and I outgrew it.
