But tensions between The Others and humans are at an all time high, with the appearance of two new drugs that either sedate The Others beyond self-defense, or throw the humans into berserker rages against them. While Meg struggles with her need to use her potentially maiming power, and a chilling premonition about her new friends, Simon the werewolf and Vladimir of Clan Vampire are troubled by what they&#8217;re discovering about the traditions of the blood prophets.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With a blizzard coming in, pushed by the rage of the elementals at the battles they&#8217;re facing with the humans Bishop throws in a bit of snowed in impending disaster tension as well. A great read, well paced considering Bishop&#8217;s penchant for trilogies.
