Vampires crave blood. I crave finishing this series. I won’t be satisfied till I do!
I love when I’m pleasantly surprised by books. I never read anything by this author before.And now I can happily say I devoured the first 3 books in the Age of Vampires series. Almost as fast as a vampire draining a human.Eternal Reign was the 1st book. And the writing definitely hypnotized me. 5 star read! If you like kick butt(had another word in mind)characters and vampires(come on who doesn’t love vampires) this is the book for you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Two Sisters...Separate Paths
Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2019

Eternal Reign by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti is a fascinating paranormal dystopian vampire novel. The authors introduce us to twin girls – Montana and Callie. They are living in an afterworld of destruction created by humans and capitalized on by the vampires when the time was right. The girls live with their father in practical destitution while living in fear of the vampires who rule over them. The time for The Testing for the girls has arrived, and they know what that means…if they are found to be compatible…they will be taken away. When they make a plan to run, their escape is foiled, and they find themselves on separate paths that they never could have seen coming.
Eternal Reign is an engaging story about Montana and Callie. The story alternates between the sisters' chapter by chapter. I find the story fascinating as the authors show us a world torn apart by humanity by relentless wars and quests for power. It is resoundingly eerie. While the girls do differ in certain areas, you’ll see that they are very much alike in temperament and various aspects of their personalities. The authors weave in a few surprises here and there in the story with the various characters that we are introduced to.
I truly enjoyed this book, but I honestly wanted a bit more diversity in the personalities of the girls. They both have strong, aggressive attitudes. I totally understand that they resent the vampires for all that they have suffered in the 21 years that they have been alive, but I think that the story would have been a bit more balanced if one of the girls had gradually developed a backbone/attitude towards her situation. I also felt that their smugness in certain situations was just plain arrogance, and it honestly annoyed me. Take away certain aspects and things and they (the girls) are once again a helpless human.
All in all, I found the story fascinating and enjoyable. I have to admit that there is more than one moment in the story of where I wanted the vampires to triumph in certain situations because I felt the hero(s) were too heavily favored, but that’s me. LOL! I like the twists and surprises that the authors write into this book. I applaud them for their seamless writing style. You can’t tell when they alternate in their storytelling and it’s great. I am eagerly anticipating the next book in this series. I am rating this book 4.5 out of 5 stars.

I liked it ok.
It was fun and interesting.
I'm a mood reader and not feeling well at the moment, so I think I just picked this one up at the wrong time therefore I'm going to try to keep things objective.

The twins are good characters. They're going through crazy things and attempting to roll with the punches while trying to protect their family.

We have to factions determined to wipe eachother out with the humans basically playing monkey in the middle. Obviously things aren't as black and white as they may seem at the beginning of the book and the longer you read, the more layers you uncover.
There's a lot more going on here than 2 hungry girls and their dad trying to stay alive.

I found the premise of the book to be interesting, very Dystopian, I also think the idea of the twins being placed in what amounts to completely opposing circumstances is quite the head-f*ck if you could pardon my French. You have 2 completely different sides of the same coin and the end goal, though technically the same (save the humans) is also quite the giant Grey area.

I can see this being an amazing series. We'll see how it goes.

I'm a fan of these authors from their kings of quarantine in lockdown series zodiac Academy ruthless boys of the zodiac and darkmore serious I love the way they write so much I wanted to find more from them and discovered this series and zodiac Academy is also about two twins and I love that idea that it's about two main female characters in we get both of their stories in the same world. I was really excited to find that they had another book with that whoever these twins are very different and it's a very different world very unique series we are vampires have taken over after humans we're weaked by War each sister has a different story taking place in the world you know they start off together and then they get separated we're getting to see it from the side of a Slayer in discovering Destiny and from the side of what happens if you have a special kind of blood in you get taken for ritual and get to live in a mansion and have the ears of the Royals so you have two stories in one that of course we'll eventually authors are really amazing with everything that they do

Well after reading all 7 books, I'm just leaving a review. Not gonna lie, it was a long series. I thought it could of been shortened some but could of been because I wanted to get to the end. This book is about the true love between 2 twin sisters. One as golden as the sun, and the other dark like the moon. It's about their innocence and how they fight for each other. Even when they both find true love they are still both one half of a whole. I loved the mythology in the story. True Vikings called Slayers against Viking Vampires who had been cursed. I really enjoyed the ride, I even cried in parts of the story. So even tho it took me about 5 days to finish the series I thought it was totally worth it.

3.0 out of 5 stars “Humanity’s greatest weakness was ignorance.”
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2021
Action packed from page one. Callie and Montana are easily likable characters who you want to win. In fact, all of the characters are like that, which makes the plot all the more interesting. I like Erik but I want Magnar to get his revenge...so many emotions! The plot moves quickly and that makes for a quick read. I struggle a little with how quickly both girls trust Erik and Magnar, but with a shorter book and such a quick pace, it makes sense. I guess we’ll see where that quick trust takes them. I also hate how it ended! Talk about a slap in the face that came out of nowhere! I’m okay with Erik’s odd obsession with Montana, but I definitely want more of a slow burn. And because the book was on the shorter side, it fell a little flat for me. But we’ve got a long way to go still!

“I’m a Slayer, perhaps the last of my kind. It was our job to protect mortals from the wrath of the vampires. They should have been wiped from this world nine hundred years ago but something went wrong. I was betrayed.” - Magnar

In the year 2133, vampires tyrannically rule America. Divided into Realms, humans are mercilessly held in captivity, defined by their blood. The only way out is The Testing, however little is known about what happens to those who pass as they never return.

Twins Cassie and Montana have grown up in inhumane conditions with minimal rations their entire lives. When they pass The Test, rather than be separated from their father, they plan their escape. The vampires have spies everywhere however and Callie is forced to watch helplessly as her sister is recaptured and her father tortured.

While Callie desperately searches for ways to rescue her father and sister, she finds an unexpected ally in the form of the slayer Magnar. Meanwhile, a defiant Montana is shipped off to the castle of the Royal Family where she is chosen by the enigmatic Erik.

Callie learns that Magnar has recently risen from a 1000 year old sleep and is the last of his kind. Magnar is dismayed by the despotic and oppressive world he has woken up to and vows to fulfill the prophecy that foretold the end of the vampires by his hands.

Meanwhile Montana is struggling to contain her hatred and contempt for her captors as well as her lavish surroundings. She is appalled when she learns that she must undergo The Ritual, where she has four days to choose between Fabian, Miles or Erik before being sired by one of them. Those who refuse to choose are sent to the blood banks where they are drained of blood at the vampires leisure. Will the sisters ever find their way back to each other?

As a huge fan of Caroline’s V Games, I knew I was in for a treat with her latest book in which she has teamed up with her sister Susanne Valenti. Told from two alternating points of view, Callie by Susanna and Montana by Caroline,
both authors have managed to rather impressively, weave a story that transitions back and forth without ever becoming disjointed.

The strength of the book lies in the characters as well as the vivid fascinating world building that both authors have created which effortlessly brings the characters and plot to life. The characters were relatable, appealing and realistic.
While both predicaments were equally engaging, I had a soft spot for Erik (who doesn’t love a dark brooding vampire? 😉) and loved the chemistry between him and the resilient Montana.

The book was tense, compelling and fast paced. I confess I was riveted from the first page, engrossed to such an extent that I couldn’t believe it when I reached the last page.

From the small insight we are given into Magnar and Erik’s backgrounds, it’s apparent that two gigantic forces of nature are destined to clash at some point and I can’t wait to see how future instalments will unfold.

Eternal Reign is an exciting debut in the Age of Vampires series and I highly recommend it to fans of dystopia, vampires, slayers and dark urban fantasy.

Eternal Reign (Age of Vampires 1), Caroline Peckham & Suzanne Valenti

Set in 2033 were on a dystopian world of the future controlled by vampires. The vampires are farming humans with treatment that would make PETA curl up are croak.

We meet Callie and Montant, fraternal twins who were born into this life of being reared as blood bags.

The world is separated into “Realms” although the planet is not fully consumed by them as there are wild spaces between. These realms are ruled over by the Belvedere Royal Vampires, a series of events sees Montana end up in the clutches of these so called royals and Callie in the company of a Slayer who’s been asleep for 900 years…

I’m at 50% loving the world building and the character background. It’s a 5 or 6 book series by this duo and I have enjoyed everything else that they’ve written so hoping I’ll enjoy this series as much if not more!

Okay it got a weee bit twilighty at the end. If you know, you know.

I still enjoyed it though!

Anything written by these authors is absolutely fantastic. I started my journey with Zodiac Academy (highly recommend) and have been devouring everything written by them and they have not disappointed me so far. This series is beautiful and i thoroughly enjoyed the journey which started with Eternal Reign. All the characters are exquisitely created and their development is beautiful, the story itself is wonderfully constructed and just kept getting better and deeper as everything unfolds. Easy 5 stars and i highly recommend, truly you cant go wrong with anything that comes from these talented sisters!
