New York Times best-selling author Seth Grahame-Smith returns with the follow-up to Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter - a sweeping, alternate history of 20th Century America as seen through the eyes of vampire Henry Sturges.

The Last American Vampire

In Reconstruction-era America, vampire Henry Sturges is searching for renewed purpose in the wake of his friend Abraham Lincoln's shocking death. It will be an expansive journey that will first send him to England for an unexpected encounter with Jack the Ripper, then to New York City for the birth of a new American century, the dawn of the electric era of Tesla and Edison, and the blazing disaster of the 1937 Hindenburg crash. Along the way, Henry goes on the road in a Kerouac-influenced trip as Seth Grahame-Smith ingeniously weaves vampire history through Russia's October Revolution, the First and Second World Wars, and the JFK assassination.

Expansive in scope and serious in execution, The Last American Vampire is sure to appeal to the passionate listeners who made Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter a runaway success.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most creative and best vampire novel ,ever! A worthy sequel for Abraham: Vampire Hunter.
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2016

I cannot recall a more fascinating and fun story. This the sequel to Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. It will be helpful to read that book first. We meet Henry, who is the "friendly" vampire and how he helps Lincoln track down and kill vampires. That book was great! And it had the most OMG, jaw-dropping ending. Now comes the sequel "The Last American Vampire" and Henry's story is fully told. This a few surprises. What is totally fun is the author, like his first book, puts Henry and this book right in the middle of history, actual events, actual historic icons and weaves that history into his well-crafted story. As in the first book, I kept thinking "could this have happened?" From the colonies to the present, this is mostly Henry's story. Sometimes as first person, sometimes as third person - this book entertains and draws you in. One of the historic icons, Mark Twain, is here and says "some of my best friends are vampires." Or President Franklin Roosevelt says to Henry "get your people to kill the SOB Hitler." I love this author and his creative mind. You are in for a whale of a ride. You will be surprise and amazed as who, throughout several centuries, show up in the novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars SO DISGUSTING, I love it so much.
Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2016

The sole (Heh, soul. Vampire joke.) reason this didn't get 5 stars right off the bat is the nearly masturbatory additions of famous characters into the life of our favorite vampire, Henry Sturges.
An excellent sequel to Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, this book centers around the continued life of Henry Sturges, a several-hundred-year-old vampire with just the right amount of angst and wit. Henry's character is complex and interesting, and dare I say, I've a bit of a crush on him for sure. (Henry, baby, call me.) The historic fiction environment Grahame-Smith paints is beautifully done and meticulously researched, making it feel fiercely realistic in its depictions. The issue I must take up, however, is the pretty bonkers amount of historic figures that Henry encounters. It's exciting for the first two or three, but it just gets overplayed and tiresome once he's met and befriended eight or nine famous historic figures, such as Samuel Clemens or Bram Stoker. It feels almost forced, like Grahame-Smith was pouring through timelines to cherry pick which famous figures Henry should chillax with next.
Despite that particular grievance of mine, I really haven't any other issues with the book. It's well written, the characters are interesting and fun, and the moral dilemmas are fascinating. And at the risk of sounding a bit hypocritical, adding the explanation of Jack the Ripper was such a great touch. Just. So good. Slow clap. Just slow clap it out.
Anyways, do yourself a favor and get a copy of this book. It's hella fun, hella gory, and hella Henry Sturges. Which, you know, is always nice.

5.0 out of 5 stars This will be an amazing TV series
Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2020

When I heard this was going to be a TV series I had to read it before I saw it. I had read Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter as well and loved the book more than the movie and the same goes here. The interweaving of historical events and the life of Henry Sturges is very entertaining and helps me imagine these moments episode to episode. I think the series will allow for greater depth within these moments. I hope to read more of Grahame-Smith's work as it comes out, but only when he marries history with fiction as he does in these two books.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you liked the first one, this one is a no-brainer
Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2015

I was a fan of Grahame-Smith's first book, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, so I was probably a little biased going into this one but I do think it's a very entertaining book. If you were a big fan of the first book, you're going to like this one just as much. The writing style, pace and word choices are the same.

Without spoiling anything, this novel's focus is on Henry, the vampire that helped out Lincoln in the first book. His character is flushed out quite a bit and the novel covers a very large stretch of time. I like alternative timeline types of books (like 1632 which is also a really good read or the what-if-Germany-won-World-War-II types of books) and this novel does a bit of that as well.

I usually judge how well I like a book by how long it takes me to read it. I read this in two nights before going to bed and couldn't put it down so I know I enjoyed it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Historical fantasy fiction...sign me up!

All I can say is that ... I caught myself holding my breathe at times ... walking away a few times because the suspense was getting to me ... teared up more than once ... and enjoyed the immense historical references at every turn. I did not know who this author was or these books in general till a friend gave me the first book to the series ... and I honestly haven't had a series grab me like this in years ... so imagine my shock when it did. Be warned, it will make you think beyond this story ... about life ... decisions ... impact etc ... so if you aren't introspective on any level then do not read, it will only agitate you. If you are introspective then enjoy. Cheers, Lisa

Excellent follow-up to Abraham Lincoln Vampire Killer. Book was in excellent condition upon pick-up. My only regret, was that I had to pay an additional duty of $11.00 to have it shipped into Canada. You know, a backward 3rd world country that our ' Little Potato ' currently governs hopefully until 2019!

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Reviewed in Canada on March 4, 2015

This book was uninspired. I have read all of the author's other works and they are great reads. In particular I would highly recommend Unholy Night. I was looking forward to this one a lot and it fell well short of the mark. It was a cross between Forrest Gump and World War Z. A bunch of almost random vignettes generally set around a President and tied together with only the loosest of threads.
