Well then what do vampires from Planet Earth eat besides
the blood of human persons. Don't tell me that they are all
kindly souls all who abstain from such outrages,for the sake
of the story.

 Nah. They’re alien-built nanotech powered by radiation. The reason why
young vampires can’t go out in daylight is that they can’t control
themselves and overeat when in sunlight. It’s a Major Plot Point. Now,
exactly how the alien tech got onto the Earth, when, and why, remains to be
seen but has all the earmarks of a Really Major Plot Point, inbound, at Dead
Slow Ahead as Weber & sharecropper who does the actual writing string things
out. Hint: the Bad Guys in the first book are now Good Guys, compared to the
Real Bad Guys, and were set up by the Real Bad Guys, and the actual invasion
force commander went against policy and has been repudiated. And the Ex-Bad
Guys are joining the Crusade against the Real Bad Guys. I see where Weber &
accomplice can get at least a half dozen books out of this. Probably more.
And, in the meantime, no Bazhell, no Merlin, and Honor is still stagnating.
Bah, humbug. No, I’m not a fan of Space Nanotech Vampires.

Since I did not read the followups to the original I was ignorant but it is not Aliend Tect but Atlantis Tech as explained
in the works of Lynsay Sands.
