Vampirates: Empire of Night (Vampirates #5)

Empire of Night is the fifth Vampirates book by Justin Somper.

It has been a while since twins Connor and Grace have been living on the sea. Connor is assigned to a pirate ship under Captain Li - a ship that is made up of a crew created especially to fight Vampirates.

Grace is on The Nocturne, the original Vampirate ship - made up of peaceful Vampirates who do not kill humans in their search for blood. They live in relationships with donors who exchange blood weekly in return for eternal life.

But there are now other ships of Vampirates - those who craved human sacrifice for their meals, and those they have since turned into vampires. They roam the seas preying on seaside villages. Now they are turning their attention on pirate ships- both to feast and to build an armada of Vampirates.

In this volume of the series, Connor and Grace play an important role in how things in the coming war will play out as Somper's vision continues to trill readers and leave them wanting more.
