    About this audiobook

    Alisa has spent the past five thousand years as a vampire, living alone and fighting for survival. In her loneliness, Alisa cannot resist bringing Teri—a descendant of her human family—into her life. But Alisa is surrounded by death and destruction, and just by knowing Alisa, Teri’s life is at risk.

    Alisa’s guilt grows when she becomes involved in a dangerous conspiracy. A top-secret group knows Alisa’s secret and will stop at nothing to use her powers for their cause. As Alisa desperately tries to protect herself and Teri from the unknown enemy, she discovers a force more powerful and more lethal than anything she has ever seen. Alisa doesn’t know who to trust, who to challenge, or who she will become….

      really good...the ending was sad...in a good way that actually made me cry
    • 3/5
      I was really aghast that Pike brought back this series of books. I know WHY he did, doesn't mean I like why. The first few chapters I was really angered at the direction he took. As SmplexlyRee stated in their review, the ending of the original series was perfect. Continuing reading, and once you decided to be OK with the how he brought her back, it was an OK book. I am a huge fan of Pike, however, after reading 3 different books of his w/in the last year I am seeing the same story but in a different setting. Maybe its my childhood fuzzy memories, but I don't recall him EVER doing that with past books. Let's see the Alosha series, the new direction of TLV series and now the Secret of Ka. I hate to say this, but I am actually getting bored with his stories! Out of the 3 the only one's I want another book from is the Alosha series but I doubt that will ever happen. Sigh.
    • 3/5
      Pretty much pointless. Really, the series would have been much better if it was just TLV 1-3 aka Thirst No. 1. The voice is still engaging & I still like Sita, but it just feels like a money grab that spends a lot of time having little happen. And it sequel-baits in a way that TLV didn't really do.
    • 4/5
      Great book. Amazing plot. Not as great as the other books in the series but still very enjoyable. Would recommend to any thriller/paranormal reader.
    • 4/5
      Christopher Pike's The Last Vampire series was one of my favorite things to read as a youngster. I purchased each book as it hit the shelves and devoured them gleefully. I was so terribly unhappy that the series ended in The Last Vampire: Creatures of Forever. That said, however, the ending of that book, the end of the series, was perfect. All the loose ends were tied up into a nice little bow. All questions answered. It was over.Imagine my surprise (and from what I've seen by poking around the internet, the surprise of many) when I saw that there was going to be a 7th book. What? But Sita's story was over! Done! Finished! We, her devoted fans, knew precisely what happened, we knew her story, we knew the truth, we'd read THE END. Boy were we fooled.Like many others I wondered how, after such a solid ending to the series, Christopher Pike could bring Sita back into the limelight. I imagined it would be stunningly brilliant, written eloquently and beautifully...the story would flow from the pages into my brain and I would sigh in utter bliss. Yeah, no.By the end of Chapter 2, I was so thoroughly and completely disgusted with the blatantly SILLY way that he brought her story back into play that I had to place my bookmark on the page, close the book, and walk away. It was that, or fly to Christopher Pike's house and ask him very plainly, "What were you THINKING?". And where was his EDITOR? Seriously?Of course, it's -Sita-, man. You have to find out what happens to her, you have to see. After a day or two, when my level of rage over the absolutely insanely boring way he explained things, I picked up the book again. Boy am I glad I did. I know that not everything Christopher Pike writes is a masterpiece. He's not the most brilliant author, at times his writing is choppy and he is repetitive in a way that makes me grit my teeth, but the story - ah the story! By the end of Chapter 3 I was hooked. I forgot, since it's been nearly a decade since I've read a Christopher Pike novel, that sometimes he starts slow. But then the flow happens and you're drawn into the tightly woven story that keeps you snugged tightly in its arms until it darn well chooses to release you. For me, that was at the very last page, the whispered words that sealed that particular portion of the novel also assured that I will be anxiously awaiting, and pre-ordering, Thirst No. 4. Yes, people, there's another coming. Summer of 2011, it says. Read stories 1 - 6 (or Thirst No 1 and Thirst No 2), Read Thirst No. 3: The Eternal Dawn. Sita dazzles, but not in that sparkly glittery craptastic way that Dear Eddie does...I promise you'll be enchanted.

      Plz do the rest of the thirst books I would love the rest
    • 4/5
      This was the first audiobook I've finished listening on Scribd. I really enjoy Christopher Pike's books. I used to buy paper books and was able to buy three of his omnibus editions. Although I haven't finished Thirst No. 2: Phantom, Evil Thirst, and Creatures of Forever yet. I tried to search it on Scribd but unfortunately, Thirst No. 3 was the only available audiobook in the Thirst series under Christoper Pike's profile.

      I hate skipping episodes or seasons when I watch a movie or a TV show that's why I haven't seen a lot of popular movies and TV series. I'm the type of person who wants to watch something or read something from the beginning. Given the availability of books on Scribd, I didn't have much of a choice but to listen to this book.

      The narration and the narrator's voice are apt for Sita's character. It was a bit confusing at first, since this book is not related to the book that I was reading in the omnibus edition but it didn't stop me from being intrigued with the plot. The characters were interesting. It's good to hear about Seymour again. It's also good to learn about Sita's character development. Compared to the 2nd book in the omnibus edition, Sita showed a different vulnerability in this book. She's still that bad ass last vampire but her humanity affected her decisions in some way. The ending was unexpected until Christopher Pike came up with another plot twist/cliffhanger for his next book.

      All in all, it's a good series and I enjoyed how it was narrated. If only there are more audiobooks for the Thirst series. I'd love to listen to the rest of the books.
