It did mean digesting a lot of information within the first hundred pages but helped to set the scene for the rest of the story. A large proportion of the first section of the book concentrates on filling the reader in on the background history of the vampire hierarchy and this was fascinating. The world which Kagawa has created is incredible.

After she and her friends are discovered, life for Allison will never be the same again as her whole existence changes. The story is set in a future world where the main protagonist Allison Sekemoto is living on the fringes of society, an Unregistered, who is determined never to be used as a meal ticket by the vampires who rule the city. I was completely engrossed in the story which was brilliantly written and proves once again what a fabulous talent Kagawa is.Īt nearly five hundred pages long this is a big book but it's pure entertainment the whole way through. Having seen rave reviews of this book I had high expectations which were met in every single way. Adopting a fresh approach to the traditional tale of vampires, she has managed to bring something new to this popular genre. 'The Immortal Rules' is a stunningly imaginative story from author Julie Kagawa.
