Book Series Written By Christopher Pike In The Order They Should Be Read

Christopher Pike is a great author whose actual name is Kevin Christopher McFadden. He was a college dropout yet his brilliance was remarkable. He started off by trying to write adult mystery and science fiction books but was later advised by a critic to go for children and young adult novels.

The list of his works is remarkably long and all his work seems like pure art with just the best storyline presentable. Although his first book in 1985 was his very first attempt at a novel for young adults it gained him great popularity at the time itself which was a pretty big deal to him as well as his friends. He has written a lot of great books and wonderful series as well which still appeal to the readers.

Chain Letter

This series is the very first series written by Christopher Pike which clearly marks his entry into this because he has certainly written a lot of book series as such. The book series is based on letters that have to be passed in a Chain between a group of friends who witnessed a person run over in the desert and they just buried him.

The letters have a particular task listed in them and they are all addressed by someone known as “the caretaker”. Once the receiver finishes the given task, they have to pass it on to the next person listed in it. And everything was away from the supernatural in the first book but the second book really gets interesting as the caretaker leaving letters till now dies and the new caretaker is an evil supernatural entity who kills any person that doesn’t complete the given task.

Last Vampire

The series is about a vampire named Alisa Perne who is the last of her kind. At least it starts by her being alone in the series as she hunts and stays alive amongst humans. Everything seems to be going great until there seems to be a problem that will affect the life of the mortal she is in love with. She has to go through a lot of struggles to survive in the mortal world.

There are times in the series when people set out to trap Alisa and her partner to experiment on their blood so that they can be duplicated and she even discovers people of her own kind in one of the books where they witness horrific murders. She even turns human but turns pregnant and gives birth to a girl who is a kind of a monster and then by the end of the series, the readers will be thrilled and would be wanting more of Alisa and her tale.

Spooksville

The title of this series obviously provides a clear hint into what it seems to be based on. It is a series of unexplainable and supernatural happenings that occur around a group of five young residents from a small town in the United States of America. Each book brings something different to the series and definitely have an exciting turn of events.

The series is made for a younger audience but it still has some violence in it which makes it inappropriate to be read by younger children. I didn’t find all the books very fascinating but most of them are great ones to read through. It exhibits how this group of five you citizens handle the mysterious occurrences and keep up their courage throughout all the situations. The author has tried to cover everything from time travel and intra-dimensional travel to extraterrestrial life which makes the series even more interesting.

Thirst Omnibus Editions

This series is basically based on the Last Vampire series by Christopher Pike himself and seems to be a continuation of the franchise. It all starts with the introduction of the previous books and then steers into a new story to be told. The first two books cover the story of the six books in the Last Vampire series which is done in a group of three in each book.

Then the author starts to introduce the story ahead where he first introduces the living descendant of Alisa’s human family and how she is in trouble so she tries to protect her and then the experiences if Alisa in the body of a newborn vampire which makes it pretty interesting leading up to a couple of stories after the end of the Last Vampire series and are definitely the kind of books to get your hands on.
