Shadow Lord is a refreshing and new look at the vampire.“Men call them vampires. They call themselves aventurieri.”  Tony-Paul de Vissage tells a fast-paced, enthralling tale of vengeance supreme.  Marek Striogoi is bent of avenging his father’s death  and hunts his enemy with a singular will, though it means leaving his Transylvania home and journeying Europe and finally America.  In his travels, he meets love, lust and danger.  As a character, Marek jumps off the page.  In fact, all of the characters in this book come to life immediately as they take the stage.The book is extremely well-written.  The language is powerful yet lush.  When I finished the book, I felt as if I had surfaced from a spell.  Tony-Paul de Vissage weaves an enchantment for his reader.  Shadow Lord, The Second Species, Book 1, is a must read and a keeper to read again.
