Up until now, Keen led the average life of an average teenager. Up until now, his friends were regular guys, fun, rowdy, and human. Up until now, nobody was out for his blood. Up until now, nobody wanted him dead! Alexandra did, She wanted to kill him. She had a desperate need. Keen was her prey. And She wanted to tear him apart. Keen would survive the first attempt on his life, just barely. But he would never be the same. Keen had been changed, forever. He never had thoughts of revenge, of killing, of taking another's life... up until now. The Pale is the first book in The Pale Series that follows Keen Panofsky, a nineteen year-old relatively normal teenage, that is changed after an encounter with a dark beauty. That encounter leaves him waking up near the ocean covered in mud... and blood. Thrust into a world that sets him apart from everything he once knew as normal, he struggles to find his place in a life of vampires, demons and other unworldly spirits.
