The story continues. Beginning at the conclusion of Vol 1, The Rose Vol 2 follows rebel freedom fighter, Phil as he battles alien vampire Sanos. Phil’s mission is to follow Sanos into the depths of hollow earth to infiltrate Drac City and rescue Sandy from the clutches of the alien vampires. Sanos requires Phil, the rebel freedom fighter who tore through the underground medical complex and brought chaos and mayhem with him. Sanos needs to overcome the shame Phil brought to alien vampires in the underground complex and reestablish trust with COR, the alien vampire commission in charge of operations on planet Earth. But to do so Phil is required, dead or alive is no matter to Sanos, he desires to gain favor with COR no matter what the cost. COR has the formula Sanos craves more than power and control. The formula is his ticket to new blood and his reign over his species and the universe. Travel into the depths of hollow earth, across the globe, and beneath the ocean for a scifi fantasy extravaganza of blood, carnage, life, death and the eternal battle between good and evil.
Sandy awakens in Drac City and discovers she has powers she never knew existed. But where these changes came from is an enigma, a puzzle she’ll need to put aside until she finds her missing son, Adam. Now a guest among a city of alien vampires, Sandy must engage in a diabolical manipulation with alien vampire leader, Moth, the only vampire who knows the whereabouts of Adam.

The second book of The Rose series is just as thrilling as the first one. The story immediately begins where the previous book left off, so I highly recommend reading Volume 1 before diving into this one.
With that being said, I really like where this series is heading! Sandy is searching for her kidnapped child, Adam, and found herself surrounded by Alien Vampires in Drac City in the process. Phil faces frightening challenges, government coverups are abundant, and the entire human race is at stake.
While book 1 offered us an introduction to it’s spectacular plot, book 2 gives us more depth to the various alien species, background on key characters, and even more page-turning thrills along the way.
The battle scenes began to feel a little repetitive towards the end, but don’t let that deter you at all! The author methodically unfolds a tale so spine tingling, it will keep even the biggest thriller fan up all night. I am officially hooked!
The saying, “a jack of all trades but the master of none” does not apply to P.D. Alleva when it comes to genre-blended storytelling, who skillfully crafts a unique vampire tale like no other. The author’s ability to seamlessly meld sci-fi, fantasy, thriller, action, and horror into what could be considered a whole new genre of its own is as much genius as it is impressive.
If you’re looking for a creepy, dystopian fantasy filled with edge of your seat action and nail biting suspense, then read this series! View our review of The Rose: Volume 1.
