A vampire novel with a cruciform heart.

An ancient evil has set the table in sisters Jo and Vicki's small Tennessee town. Moths and butterflies stalk the vampires' would-be victims, while an unseen tempter lures Vicki further toward a feast where she is on the menu. When Vicki disappears, gentle and sensitive Jo vows to do whatever it takes to save her—even tracking Vicki through the haunted lair and secret tunnels of a notorious, immortal killer. Will Jo and her friends stop the feast before it happens, or will they become its guests of honor?

About the Author

Alex Scott has been writing since 2000. He was chrismated into the Greek Orthodox Church in 2016, with Silouan the Athonite as his patron saint, and is currently pursuing a Master's in Education with the goal of teaching English in middle or high school. He self-published his first novel, Thresholds of the Grand Dream, in 2017. He has spent his entire life in science fiction and fantasy fandom in some capacity; his parents even met at a convention! Having been interested in vampire lore, vampire stories, games, anime, etc., since childhood, he wrote Feast of the Sisters to explore the concept of vampires as a personification of evil in the modern era, with special homages to Bram Stoker's original Dracula, and with an Orthodox understanding of sin and temptation.

This book has the ingredients of a a great young adult novel: a mystery to solve, young people banding together to go on adventure, a hint of teenage romance, and good defeating evil. What makes it unique is that the book is set in the rural south and the author includes his Orthodox faith as a mechanism for defeating vampires. On top of that, the book is well written and full of tension. During the second half of the book, it becomes a real page turner. Overall, this is a unique take on the young adult horror genre and well worth a read.

It's back to Vampire Basics here - good vs. evil. The first two chapters offer quick glimpses of the evil hovering on the edges of a small Southern town and a group of kids, then the bottom drops out and the characters free fall into terror! Darkness, evil, and sin are addressed honestly, but always with an awareness of God's constant love. Christians of all stripes will find the final scene amazing.

Feast of the Sisters

I’ve always found classic horror sub-genres like vampires an authorial risk. Not only are you bound by the constraints provided by the mythos your entry builds on, but you must provide an angle unique enough that you’re not simply face-lifting the classic. Even if you manage to add something – you must add well or avid readers will see you as “Dracula – but with Bacon” or so far off that you missed the mark entirely.

Alex Scott’s Feast of the Sisters was a delightful read. Readers familiar with Scott’s extensive body of short fiction will already know that he is an author with no shortage of invention – but Scott brings his fantastic imagination to his vampire narrative to produce a young adult novel that is both familiar and new. Whether it be the steady motif of harbinger moths and butterflies (I’m a sucker for luna moths myself), the background menace of “the cat-killer”, or the “who’s side are they on?” twists that help create the unique tensions of the escalating plot, the book manages to surprise and build in unexpected directions.

Of course, good horror, above all, rests on strong character foundations, and Scott manages his characters well, building their inner conflicts consistently and sympathetically. As the characters find themselves in increasing peril from the outside, Scott skillfully makes it clear that the greatest threats are always from within, something he executes through both well-drawn interiority of the characters as well as the religious elements that help define the conflict of the story as good vs. evil. All-in-all, Feast of the Sisters was an engaging read for all audiences and effective within the young-adult horror genre.

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2023
This young adult vampire novel kept me on the edge of my seat. The writing is well done and flows well. I’m in my mid 30s, and I find YA literature to either be fantastic or utterly awful. Feast of the Sisters is the former. I loved seeing sisterly friendship and self-sacrificial love amidst the creepy (yet classic) vampire story. The pacing changes in a believable way, and the writer brings you along through internal dialogue and conversations between characters. I could relate to the main character, Jo — an animal-loving, vegetarian middle schooler. She is like-able, complicated, and feels like a real person. As a teen I loved suspense novels with a spiritual bent, but this story feels more grounded than the fluffy haunted house kitsch I used to consume as a kid. I’d recommend parents read the book first to decide whether it’s a good fit for their teen or pre-teen. Trigger warning for blood, gore, brief reference to child SA, and intense animal cruelty/violent scene, but it all seemed necessary to the plot.
