Join Mars as he immerses himself into the very primal culture of the real and modern day Vampire. This provocative saga is about a young man, who for reasons he couldn't explain, always felt different... like a freak amongst the freaks! And then the cravings started...Luckily for him, he stumbled across an eccentric and charismatic, older mentor type, who seemed to have some answers. He knew about the beast that crept over his human cells, which raged inside of him and tickled his psyche with unwanted visions of homicide. But Anton didn't tell Mars he shouldn't drink blood - instead he told him how best to acquire it. His Lair was a sanctuary where sanguine feeders could take refuge and grow into their own Vampire skins... He didn't believe in clipping their wings, but instead he nurtured his kin and encouraged them to fly! Upon recognising his alpha male qualities, Anton made Mars a guardian - a protector of his clan. But with guardianship comes a whole mess of responsibilities. And as Mars listened to his mentor, his mind expanded. However, the principal's answers weren't always what he expected - much of the wisdom was controversial, and sometimes very confronting! Mars felt like he belonged in this pond! However, guardians don't have the luxury of ignorance - ignorance is what they are able to gift their kin because they brave the devil themselves. But, when the devil dives beneath the surface, how far down does he go, and for the sake of his clan, how far is Mars willing to follow...WARNING: This book contains frequent course language, violence, explicit sex, sexual violence, horror, and lots of blood!SERIES WARNING: "MARS: The Crimson Hue" is intended to be Book 1 in a series. However, by the end of this book, if you decide it is not the series for you, enough loose ends have been tied up so as not to frustrate and keep you awake at night.
Mars, a young man who always felt like an outsider, discovers he is a vampire and must navigate the primal culture of his new existence. He struggles with burgeoning homicidal urges and the need for blood, finding guidance from an older mentor, Anton, who leads a sanctuary for vampires. Mars is tasked with becoming a guardian, a role that brings immense responsibility and forces him to confront controversial teachings and the darker aspects of his nature as he seeks to protect his newfound clan.
The premise sets up a dark fantasy narrative focused on a young man's discovery and embrace of his vampiric nature, guided by a mentor figure. The inclusion of explicit content suggests a mature audience, and the narrative structure indicates a desire to provide a satisfying conclusion while leaving room for future installments. The story appears to delve into themes of identity, belonging, and the moral complexities of a supernatural existence, framed within a world of violence and explicit sensuality.
