Mystic Falls, Virginia, fine Ottocento. La misteriosa Katherine, il primo grande amore di Stefan, lo ha tradito e lo ha trasformato in un vampiro. Ora per Stefan tutto è perduto: la sua vita è distrutta, e la sua anima dannata per sempre. Un tempo, prima che il destino si abbattesse su di loro, lui e suo fratello Damon vivevano spensierati e felici nella lussuosa dimora di famiglia. Ora invece i cacciatori di vampiri attendono in agguato, assetati di vendetta. Non resta che lasciare tutto e fuggire. Un treno li porterà a New Orleans, e lì per i due fratelli inizierà una nuova vita…

Un giorno, tanto tempo fa, molti anni prima di conoscere Elena, la vita dei fratelli vampiri Stefan e Damon cambiò per sempre…

Awesome book!! This second book of the series is about how Damon is captured by a vampire hunter and Stefan is the only hope to rescue Damon. But then he falls in love with the vampire hunter's daughter Callie and must choose between huis brother or his love. This book also shows how they struggle to cope from changing from a human to a vampire as they whole life has been turned around. I give this book 4 STARS!! If you love stories about VAMPIREs, love and death then this is the book for you!

This is a really enjoyable read.I found myself having some bloodlust as I read through it. Maybe I was a vampire in a fictional past life.

Newly-turned vampire Stefan saw the world as his oyster, with the promise of immortality bringing endless possibilities for he and his vampire brother, Damon. Unfortunately, Damon does not see things this way, and the book is spent with Stefan trying to win his brother over. During the process Stefan must face new situations that force him to think about his place in the world: he must come to terms with the end of his human life, learn his position in a band of vampires and decide if the human world is fit for someone like him. Like it’s predecessor, the second installment of Stefan’s Diaries is centered on romance, but comes to paint love in a negative light. As Stefan has recently become a vampire the story is filled with descriptive language of blood: the smell, the sound of a human’s heartbeat, the way that the blood affects him, etc. The book repeatedly mentions happenings from the first book, but explains them so that readers can pick up the second book without having read the first one. Stefan’s alluring character from Vol. 1 continues to draw readers in, almost as if he is compelling us to read, as he compels his victims.

This second book of a series follows seventeen year old Stefan Salvatore and his older brother Damon, after they have been turned into vampires by Katherine Pierce. Katherine was killed by the town's people and both brothers are still grieving about her death. They have only been vampires for one week and are still new to being "undead". However, they are forced to flee their hometown of Mystic Falls after the town's people decide to kill them. The brothers arrive in New Orleans, a city that is strange and new to them. After an argument they decide to go their separate ways. Alone and lost Stefan eventually joins a band of vampires who are lead by Lexi. Stefan soon finds out that Damon is being held by a vampire hunter named Patrick Gallaher, who keeps Damon in a cage and forces him to fight wild animals.There is also some romance in this novel as Stefan falls for the vampire hunter's daughter Callie ,who agrees to help Stefan rescue his brother. This book is actually a prequel to the first book. It outlines the mental and physical changes Stefan and Damon went through as they changed from humans into vampires. I have read up to book six in this series and was glad that this prequel came along as I finally got some answers and more of an insight into the Salvatore brothers' lives as humans and vampires.
