Slave Ring
(Part of the Clan Brujah Trilogy (#1) Series and Classic World of Darkness Fiction Series)
Shackled by Blood Immortal vampires lurk in the nights of the modern world, hidden from the eyes of mortals by an elaborate masquerade and the traditions of their sect, the Camarilla. But for every blood-drinker towing the line, six others forget their place and revel in the power of undeath. Heretics and anarchs press in on every side, and the whole of undead society teeters on the edge of collapse. Standing in the way of this chaos is the strong arm of the Camarilla, Theo Bell, archon, enforcer and executioner among the undead. He is quick on the draw, potent in the blood, and those who'd challenge the traditions have reason to fear him. But Theo has his own problems. In the Midwest, he discovers evidence of a new breed of slavery in which mortal criminals and vampiric degenerates collect human specimens to suit particular tastes. Bound by his own sense of honor, and obligations going back to the Victorian Age, Theo begins a hunt that will ultimately shake the foundations of the Camarilla itself-and may cost him his own freedom.

Great thriller
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I loved this book. It was fast, held together well, and really drew me into the action. The characters were fun too. I found it almost impossible to put down.
Great if you like the game

If you like "Vampire: The Masquerade" then you may like this first in a series about the Brujah clan. We meet Theo, a Brujah archon who was once a slave in the antibellum south, whose method of operations appears to be very traditional until his mortal life memories get triggered by his latest assignment. Some Kindred and some mortals are working together to run a slave ring of mortals for high profit to markets around the world. This ring seems to cut across all lines that exist in the world of Kindred politics or perhaps its just a cover for something more serious. Burdened with a neonate Brujah who is a survivor of this modern slave ring, Theo must balance his duty, his clan, the politics of the Midwest, and his own memories as he searches for other survivors and the leaders of the slavers. The writing is excellent, showing depth to Kindred characters that is often lacking in many RPG groups and in the books themselves on occassion. There is plenty of violence for those just interested in the mechanics of combat but primarily this is a story of lies and coverups discovered by someone with a century and a half chip on his shoulder.
Fantastic!

...This book rocks though. If it wasn't for the logos on the cover, you'd never know it was linked to a game at all. It's a kick-[butt] horror with really great characters -- I could easily fall in love with Delphine -- and some of the best portrayals I've ever found of what vampire existence is like. He really gets in there and takes you into it all. Pick it up as soon as you can. You won't regret buying it.
