Dhampir

So I'm reading this book, Dhampir. It's mostly what I would consider Pulp-Fantasy. I'm not particularly a Fantasy reader - I like me some Sci-Fi - I never finished The Fellowship of the Ring, and I never attempted any of Tolkien's other works. I know I lose Nerd Points. So be it.
I picked this one up by mistake. It was mixed in with some cyber-punk kind of stuff on a table in Borders and, noticing the 'Buffy' reference I bought it.
Well... I'm about halfway through and all I can think about is when it's going to be over. It's not a bad book. I'm just not into it. I can appreciate all the vampire jive - that's why I picked it up - but it's just not my thing...
