Katie Comes Undone (Katie McGuire, Vampire Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Jared Wynn (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

The first in a series of six fantasy novellas that will forever change the way you think about Vampires, from the author of "Hey, Zeus!" and "Zen and the Art of Dying."

Katie McGuire just died, and that’s where her story begins. Because in a world where Vampires have civil rights, the last thing they can allow is for mortals to think that people are being turned against their will. So in order to maintain the fragile peace, a 600-year-old Vampire must bring Katie into the fold - or silence her forever.

She can't run, and she can't hide, not with midterms, a pregnant best friend, and a nerdy new love interest all needing her attention. Katie must learn to navigate the horrors of high school while trying to figure out what to do with the rest of her afterlife.

This is the story of Katie McGuire, Vampire.

Jared Wynn spent his formative years in Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East as an expat and diplomatic dependent. After what felt like several lifetimes overseas, he returned to America to pursue a higher education while bouncing around between odd jobs. To date, he’s been a cook, a bouncer, a geophysical technician, a hypnotherapist, a screenwriter, a Jujitsu instructor, and a standup comic, all of which he thinks make him a better writer but which probably just make him eccentric. He currently resides in Southern California with his wife and three stepkids.

Katie McGuire didn't want to be a vampire. And it wasn't her fault. But what can she do about it?

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for young adults
Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2022

Well, I really liked it and I'm well past young adult stage (I'm retired). I actually bought book 2 first, then saw a note that book 1 was free so went and picked that up, too. I'm glad I did. although I haven't started reading book 2 yet, but I think starting with book 1 is the way to go. Probably saved me from having a lot of questions, later on. I am (was?) a big Buffy fan - the TV series, not the movie - and I suppose that was what motivated me to pick up this book. Just know that it's a serial - 6 episodes - so if you want to follow it to conclusion, you'll have to buy a few more books. But don't worry, they're inexpensive and well worth the small investment. I won't spoil things for you by discussing the story. Just know that it's a different take on vampires, not like Buffy at all, but very enjoyable. If you like fictional vampires (the only kind, right?), you'll probably like this story. I recommend it, not just for young adults, but for all ages.

I'm 70 and i enjoyed this young adult book. The writing style was good . the plot had a different approach . if you have become somewhat bored with the standard " young girl get turned into a vampire " book , you may want to try this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars I apologize for this review.
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2022

I don't apologize for reviews. I really don't-- but this is the exception.

I am going to be vague, and at an arm's length. When I saw the premise it sounded familiar, and the cadence of the opening pages more or less flagged it as "the basis for a visual product" not a novel, not a set of short stories, but an openness to an actor bringing the character to life. It really needed about 66-68 pages to establish the heart and "the reality" of the alternate world the story is set in.

That, of course, is if this story is fiction, not a careful attempt to gain acceptance for the introduction of a new ethnic group with which to deal. I prefer the alternate world choice. Really, I do.

What it does is enter the land of "so what if it does not make sense it is a fun story" and has a good premise, but has some flaws in logical progression, the killing of a character that could have added tremendous depth the the creation of the world and play off as a comic relief at the same time.

It earns a nine out of ten, and when you move to the one to five rating, that means it is more than four, so it gets a five. I will not be pursuing it further for personal reasons, but it really deserves more readers and reviews than it has gotten so far. Part of that might be that it is not normal short story or novel structure, but if you make the leap to seeing it instead of hearing it, then it is a good start, although there are not enough "books" or episodes to really bring it to bear fruit.

Five stars, but if you want fast food to chomp on, this is not as good a choice as most of the others-- world building really needs more episodes and a different structure.

But it is still five stars.

I'm not into vampire stories, but this one drew me in from the first page. I teach Jujitsu, and the fight scenes are precisely realistic, down to tiny details. For me fiction must have a firm base in reality - and this book does that. Once you get to the fights, it just rips you along. I jumped on the second book right away.

Story was OK - not terribly believeable, but entertaining enough. Did not realize that this was a Serial. It's like selling a book chapter by chapter. Don't appreciate this style of publishing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun and Unique
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2022
I like the idea of vampires having civil rights. I would love to see this explored more and could be rife for further satire. I enjoyed how the vampire-boy, human-girl trope was turned on its side, with Katie being turned against her will and Brian becoming a stalker. I'll definitely check out future installments. Oh, and as a "Buffy" fan, I did appreciate the reference to the Bronze.

An interesting take on the vampire genre, presented in a fashion which may be appealing to teens.
