YAChronicles of Vladimir Tod series.
Joss the slayer is back--and he wants Vlad dead. But Vlad is sixteen, full of angst, and doesn't care because he's had to break up with his girlfriend, Meredith. Not much has changed thematically in this fourth installment, making the book seem a little redundant at times, but the action is fast and the ending packs a killer punch.
