(If you want to chat in the comments, please let us know if you preordered one of the special editions? Or two? Or… 14?)īefore jumping to the special editions, here are the links if you’d just like to check out a normal copy to see what all the hype is about (these will feature the regional cover illustrations above). Or even better, there are always other special editions listed below that you can look for instead. But don’t stress if you feel you missed out on the copy of your dreams – copies of some special editions are available on eBay although most have massive markups. In particular, the Goldsboro, Waterstones and Illumicrate editions both sold out in a couple of hours, breaking websites in the process. There are currently at least 14 different editions of the book, several of which proved extremely popular with many exclusives selling out within hours of being listed. And with the cup of the Savior destroyed and the last Silversaint awaiting execution, what can bring an end to this unholy empire?
Most importantly, Gabriel will tell of his discovery of the Grail-the legendary cup prophesied to bring an end to the eternal night. Imprisoned for the murder of the vampiric king, Gabriel’s tale spans from his youth in the monastery of San Michon, to the forbidden love that spelled his undoing, and the betrayal that saw his order annihilated.
This novel tells the story of Gabriel de León, last of the Silversaints, a holy order dedicated to defending realm and church from the vampiric “coldbloods”.
He sold the novel with the description of it being “the bastard lovechild of Interview with the Vampire, The Road and The Name of the Wind,” so it has high hopes riding on it (which early reviews support). Empire of the Vampire is the first book in a new illustrated dark fantasy series for author Jay Kristoff, who is best known for his popular Nevernight series.
