This series is definitely for fans of Gothic vampire stories. Andrew is the reluctant monster, a morally good vampire fighting the dark aspect of his nature and using the power it gives him to do good. There is no question of his power and his determination, and the force of his love. Yet, his fatal flaw is his love for Mary, self-titled the Queen of Blood. She embraces all the darkness that becoming a vampire has created in her, and wants her vampire species to rise up and decimate humanity, while Andrew wants to protect them. Andrew travels in her wake, seeing to derail Mary's plans. Along the way, he gains allies in his fight against the bloody vampire uprising.I enjoyed this book a lot. The artwork is dark and not very colorful, other than the red tones of blood. I think the art is a bit murky for my tastes, but I understand that author wanted to add to the dark, Gothic feel of the storyline. One real advantage of this art is it captures motions so effortlessly. The writing is excellent, and I appreciate the shifting POVs between Andrew, Mary, and other pivotal character.While I wouldn't exactly call this scary, it definitely has sense of suspense and thrills to the storyline. The ending is quite a cliffhanger that makes the reader want to run for the next volume. I'll definitely keep following this series. Story: Andrew has to kill his ex-girlfriend Mary aka The Queen Of Blood. Both have a different outlook on being a vampire. Andrew regrets turning her since she has become a monster who wants to rule the world.I absolutely love the illustrations, very dark but beautiful artwork. The vampires remind me a little bit of the ones in „American Vampire“ when they turn into a more animalistic kind of vampire.The only person I really can’t stand because she is annoying as hell is Tig. Sorry, I was really hoping for her death.
What do You think about Yo, Vampiro: Amor Impuro (2012)?
As tired as I am of vampires, I didn't mind this one. Wasn't enthralling or "page-turning" though.

Good story. Introduced the characters nicely. The ending was surprising.
