"So. I bought Cain's Blood on Sunday, started reading it Monday, and have been unable to put it down until I just finished it. This is an excellent, well thought out tale close enough to what we know to make it seem almost real. When is the next part going to be published? I cannot wait long..."

""What a wonderful book! Author T.L Gray took the biblical story of Cain and turned it into a story of fantasy and suspense. Using a combination of present day events and flashbacks spanning thousands of years to tell this fascinating story. This isn’t the first time I’ve heard stories of Cain being the first vampire, but I truly loved her unique take.

The pacing of The Blood of Cain was ideal, and the characters were engaging and well developed. I also loved the many different settings where the characters could be found while telling their story. It was the perfect mix of historical and modern day fantasy. I am thoroughly impressed that she packed such a stellar novel into just under 200 pages. With the shifting point of view I was concerned the storyline would become confusing but it all flowed wonderfully. She was able to give both Teagan and Cain their own unique voice. As a reader I very much appreciated this little detail. The ending clearly stated To Be Continued and I for one can’t wait to see where this author takes us next."

    "Then the Lord said to Cain, ‘Where is your brother Abel?’ ‘I don’t know,’ he replied. ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’ Genesis 4:9
    ‘The Blood of Cain’ by T.L. Gray, is probably one of the most thought provoking books that I have had the privilege of reading in quite a long time! The Blood of Cain is a marvellous work of fiction which can be either read as a simple and straight forward story, or as a story that has a very complex theological and thought provoking content.
    The main protagonist within this story is called Tegan Dacre, who loves fast cars, loud music and beautiful women, but Tegan carries a dark secret, which makes him very different from the majority of other people in the world. Tegan is immortal and has a blood thirst that he must satisfy by each new moon. Thinking that he was unique, Tegan’s world is suddenly turned upside down when he meets a disturbing family of immortals similar to himself who are seeking their father and maker, the world’s first murderer Cain! 
    Two time-lines are followed and two stories are told within this book. In its simplest form, this book recounts the author’s interpretation of the famous bible story about Cain and Abel fused with a parallel story of the immortal Tegan, living in the fast paced world of the 21st Century and trying to discover an understanding of his, as he sees it, curse of immortality.
   At a higher cogitative level, ‘The Blood of Cain’ introduces the reader in a unique way, into thinking about the concepts of evil, murder, sexuality, love, vampires, immortality and Christianity. I would not say that this book is written as a religious book, but behind the stories being told, the foundations of Christianity are being explored in a very cleverly put together academic way by the author T.L. Gray, and it works exceptionally well.
    T.L. Gray has packed a lot into the 188 pages of this book. I still have not figured out how she has managed to do this, but she has done it very well. This has been a very enjoyable and thought provoking book to read. I have been left with some questions that remain unanswered in my mind and so I really do look forward to reading the further books planned in this series, in order to see if my remaining questions will actually be answered!"

  "The Blood of Cain is an entertaining read that quickly snags the reader with engaging characters... then takes its captives places you never thought you'd go.  Author T.L. Gray is skilled at weaving action-packed sequences against intriguing imagery, making this book well poised for adaptatation into film or television."

      "I haven't read a book that I couldn't put down in a looong time. The Blood of Cain.... go get this book! It's a fiction book so it's not what you think. Amazon gives it a 5 star review after 12 reviews so far."

     "If I had to pick one word to describe the book The Blood of Cain by T.L. Gray it would be unique. Often I can guess where a book is going but I never had a clue with this one. Full of twists and turns it kept me guessing until the end.

    The Blood of Cain mixes Christianity with fantasy for a very different kind of story. The vampire mythology in this book is unlike any I have ever read. The story focuses on the Biblical character Cain who is marked with silver eyes and is cursed to live his life alone until he inadvertently discovers a way to transform others. The story is told from the alternating perspective of Cain and modern day silver eyed Teagan.  It's a face paced novel that could easily be read in one sitting.

    Overall a well written story. I'd like to have seen the relationship between Teagan and Tatiana developed a little more."

    "The originality of The Blood of Cain blew me away. Not only do you get a unique take on vampires, but a magnificent spin on the biblical figure, Cain. The first murderer known to man, Cain, traverses on a journey through time as an immortal. He considers this to be punishment for his crimes. Through his point of view, we meet legendary characters and witness infamous events. The research that T.L. Gray must have put into this book is fabulously evident.
    We are also introduced to Teagan Dacre, the modern day vamp. His character is no less fascinating. The chapters of the book alternate between Cain’s journey and Teagan’s education of how he came to be. While this all may sound confusing, and in many other books I’ve read it was, T.L. Gray brilliantly ties it all together with fluidity.
    The characters were very well written. We feel Cain’s pain and Teagan’s confusion. All of the supporting characters have their own clear personalities and interesting stories. 
    Basically it comes down to this: The Blood of Cain has everything I want in a book:
• Compelling characters
• Fluid dialogue
• Intelligent plot twists
• Originality
• An exciting climatic ending
    I highly recommend The Blood of Cain to those of you looking for a gripping urban fantasy novel with a historical fiction twist. You will not be disappointed."

    "This book wowed me!. It is the story of Cain from the Bible, Cain and Abel in Genesis. He is marked with silver eyes by God for killing his brother Abel. He eats some fruit from the Tree of Life and becomes an immortal. He also drinks blood because nothing comes without the price of blood. 
    The story is well thought out and executed. The characters are well defined and I found myself really feeling for Cain and what he was going through. I also felt for the others. The author really did some Bible research for this book. It covers Cain living through Noah's flood and even the crucifixion of Jesus. 
    I loved this book I am a Christian, and even if I wasn't it's a great spin on this story. I love vampire stories, andI found this one refreshing and exciting. If you have the chance to read this book; Do It! You wont be disappointed. I cant wait for the next book in this series. It is worth the wait!  My score -5 Stars"

     "The Blood of Cain is a refreshing twist on stories of immortality. In this well-researched account, Author T.L. Gray pulls events from the Bible, interweaves them with pages from history, and spins a convincing and controversial tale about the first-born son of Adam and Eve. 
     In a saga that spans the centuries, she gives us a sympathetic look at the man condemned by God to pay forever for murdering his brother. Cain's curse is immortality. Deprived of death as a lasting peace, he must adapt and change roles to deal with the humans and other immortals he meets during a lifespan of several thousand years. 
     This is one of those books where the characters outlive the story and leave the reader asking for more. But the author has not abandoned us. Book two is in progress."

 "Cain murdered his brother, Abel.  We've all heard the story.  God turns his back on him and he is known for all time as the First Murderer.  What if there was more to it than that?  Wat if there's a chance for Cain's redemption?  What if Cain finds a way to become immortal, surely he'd figure out how to make amends with God if he has all of time to search?  Too late!  Cain discovers immortality is the worst punishment God could have rendered.  Bearing witness to all of human history, Cain has carried his burden as carefully as he could.  Now he's ready for an end.
     Told from alternating points of view betwenn Cain of ancient history and Teagan of modern days, is a mesmerizing twist on a renown historical figure.  Cain is NOT the cold-blooded murderer we've all grown up knowing, but was in fact just an angsty, jealous teen who made a mistake of biblical proportions and now must pay for all of time.  
     The world building is thrilling and enthralling.  The Blood of Cain is an intricately woven historical thriller meshed with a fast-paced urban fantasy.  I fell in love with the characters, even the REAL bad-guy (who incidentally is definately NOT Cain).   As a science major, I always dwell on the details.  Question everything.  Gray squeleched each and every question raised throughout this book leaving me ONLY asking, "What happens next?"  I can't wait to read The Arcainians."
