Okay. The author gets one star for the time it took to write this book. I googled the Scottish vampire myth and yeah, it's a real myth, and it's portrayed fairly accurately and might make an okay monster movie, but I expected more archeology and less cryptozoology. The author spends way too much time developing the various vampire types and the characters fade away into the bloodbath of the (often rididulous) action. I can suspend disbelief as well as most readers who like authors like James Rollins but this was just silly. I found myself rolling my eyes a lot, and dozing off occasionally. But to be fair, I read the whole book. It was tough going. I'm not sure it was even worth the price (.99). Give it a pass.
