Slaves of God

About this book

Travis is an ordinary teenager eking out a dreary existence in a quiet midwestern town -- until one day his body starts to fade. He begins to experience a strange form of vampirism which compels him to draw nourishment from the lives of others, or else slowly fade from existence altogether. Horrified by his nature, he sets off across country for one last road trip thrill, resolved to commit suicide in a final blaze of glory. On the way he meets Pete, another of the afflicted, who is running from demons of his own. Together they head across the heartland of America, pursued by a nameless assassin who methodically exterminates young people of their kind due to the threat they represent to humanity. But dying is the least of their worries: they are desperately trying to find a way to combat their natures, lest they lose their grip on existence completely
