About this listen
En una base militar en Nueva Jersey mantienen custodiada a una vampira terriblemente poderosa. Cuando esta escapa, desata el terror y el apocalipsis en forma de plaga vampírica.
En la cercana población de Hillsdale, coinciden varios supervivientes: Sonia, una policía; y Jimmy, un inteligente friki de Star Wars. Ambos acuden al campamento militar, pero solo encuentran a Elexia, la vampira encargada de convertir humanos. En su huida conocen a Jared, un militar malhablado, violento y bebedor que deserta de su puesto para liquidar a las letales criaturas.
Este es el inicio de una aventura que llevará a los tres protagonistas a luchar por sobrevivir a la plaga a medida que descubren que gran parte de Estados Unidos ha caído. Pero puede que haya una pequeña esperanza, puede que exista alguna manera de vencer a Elexia....

©2019 Carlos Sisí (P)2019 Editorial Planeta, S.A.I don’t like Sisí's voice. He sounds more like Speedy Gonzalez than the average Mexican campesino, but the narrator here is great. Álvaro has many great works under his belt. For a few pages, Sisí had me convinced that he is Mexican. That turned out to be my ignorance at play. He is, a genius, one who clearly understands how language creates culture and how to use language to invoke emotions, thoughts and perceptions.
The great power of his writing for Spanish students in the very high register is his sense of irony. He is a master of the finest colloquialisms which, at the same time, proving he can reach the highest formal registers when playing the narrator. The story will sicken some and repulse others. A graphic depiction of a throat being chewed out, however, pales comparatively, to his ability to play the harp strings of emotion over family loss and senses of despair and dread.
I don’t like vampire stories, and it will be difficult for me to continue the series for that reason. However, Sisí's writing style is something I would have missed and been the much poorer Spanish student had I not been blessed with discovering him. It's a wonderful, clean break from the Spaniard obsession of history and civil war, without stealing from Anglo sources. If Spain is going to compete in ground-breaking NEW whatever may come, I believe Sisí will be the one to do it with in the six providences lore of beasts and creatures the world knows so very little about. I hope he gets the idea and puts Spain in 1st place in Fantasy and Horror because I am sick and tired of Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter!!! Whatever Sisí writes, I´ll buy just to support the arts, his art, of being a great writer. Masterful, however, typically the post Franco Spaniard, a little too intentionally blasphemous for my tastes. It would get old if I read it too much.
