The worldbuilding in this is awesome, and very interesting. The young heroine in this story is Allison (Allie), who at the start is fully human, living in poverty in a vampire ruled world.

This is the first book in Kagawa’s Blood of Eden series. The Immortal Rules is another vampire book, but yet so different. Now that I have finished The Immortal Rules, I can safely say this is being added to my list of books that are a must read, as well as the author. Lately, I have really enjoyed some of the YA books that I have read, which includes The Hunger Games, Divergent and Graceling. The Immortal Rules is the first book I have read by Julie Kagawa, and I have to say, I am very impressed. And Allie soon must decide what-and who-is worth dying for. Especially not around Zeke, who might see past the monster inside her. There she joins a ragged band of humans who are seeking a legend-a possible cure to the disease that killed off most of humankind and created the rabids, the mindless creatures who threaten humans and vampires alike.īut it isn’t easy to pass for human. Then Allie is forced to flee into the unknown, outside her city walls. To survive, she must learn the rules of being immortal, including the most important: go long enough without human blood, and you will go mad. Faced with her own mortality, Allie becomes what she despises most. Until the night Allie herself is attacked-and given the ultimate choice. The vampires who keep humans as blood cattle. Some days, all that drives Allie is her hatred of them.

By night, any one of them could be eaten. By day, she and her crew scavenge for food. Allison Sekemoto survives in the Fringe, the outermost circle of a vampire city. And one girl will search for the key to save humanity. The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa – a Review
