The Vampire series
Author Raina C. Smith’s The Vampire series is a dark and thought-provoking journey into the depths of the soul, where the battle between light and darkness is waged not only in the world but within the hearts of men (and vampires). This gripping saga explores themes of power, redemption, and the consequences of immortality through the tortured existence of its enigmatic protagonist, Rex.
In The Vampire, readers are introduced to Rex—a man transformed against his will into an immortal predator. As he grapples with his unnatural thirst and the haunting weight of his past, he is thrust into a conflict far greater than himself. The story delves into the complexity of good and evil, challenging the notion of what it truly means to be a monster.
The sequel, The Vampire – A Covenant for Peace, continues Rex’s harrowing journey as he seeks a peaceful, fulfilling existence beyond bloodshed. Haunted by his violent past and driven by an unrelenting desire for salvation, he is drawn into a world of clandestine forces, ancient secrets, and a perilous struggle for redemption, while navigating a passionate love affair with a mortal woman.
The sequel expands on the moral dilemmas and spiritual warfare at the heart of the series, raising the stakes for Rex and the fate of those he loves and those who make the mistake of crossing his path.
Masterfully blending gothic horror, philosophical depth, and heart-pounding suspense with deep existential introspection, The Vampire series is a mesmerizing tale of darkness, destiny, and the hope for redemption in a world where the line between sinner and savior is razor-thin.
By the end of this two-book series, Rex, a complex antihero - will force readers to reconsider what it truly means to be human (or vampire).

The 13th Apostle trilogy
In The 13th Apostle trilogy, an electrifying battle between good and evil unfolds, challenging the very foundation of faith, free will, and redemption.
The journey begins in The 13th Apostle, where Father Joseph’s discovery of an ancient scroll hidden deep within the Vatican sets off a perilous mission to save humanity’s soul. As he races against time to decipher its chilling prophecies, an angel and one sent from the netherworld, wager the fate of mankind on a single untainted soul. If goodness still exists, it must prove itself against evil in its purest form—or risk being lost forever.
In Divine Providence, the war for the soul of humankind intensifies as Father Joseph’s own offspring, Roarke and Fallon, become the focal point of a celestial battle. Gifted with divine souls, the twins hold a power that could tip the scales of fate. As one grows into adulthood in the historic lands of Rhode Island, a place steeped in the fight for religious freedom, while the other is being raised under difficult circumstances in Scotland, each must navigate a world where faith and corruption collide—while an ancient force watches, waiting to claim them.
The saga reaches its stunning conclusion in Thy Kingdom Come, where Fallon makes the ultimate sacrifice, descending into the depths of Hell, where no human has ever returned, to try to rescue her brother. But the horrors she experiences in the infernal
regions are not what they seem, and she soon discovers a realm of deception crafted to ensnare lost souls for eternity.
As she faces impossible odds and a battle against the Evil One himself, she must confront the ultimate question: can redemption exist even for the most forsaken?
A gripping trilogy that delves into the nature of good and evil, The 13th Apostle trilogy challenges readers to reconsider
the forces shaping humanity’s fate—and whether humanity is inherently good or evil and if salvation is still within reach.
