Book Review By Rebecca Lyons
Dhampir by Barb & J.C. Hendee

When Magiere and her companion Leesil decide to quit their vampire-hunting scam and settle down to run an inn, little do they realize that their adopted town is the lair of a powerful--real--vampire, who soon decides to target Magiere. Magiere must come to terms with her own latent powers, which she barely understands, and she and Leesil must fight to save their adopted town and destroy the vampire before he and his companions destroy them.
