Inescapable is a new take on the gods and goddesses, vampyres, and the supernatural world.  It is written in two alternating points of view switching back and forth between Andrasteia and Seraphine who are mother and daughter.  This was a little difficult for me at times as it seemed to jump back and forth and in my opinion interrupted the continuity of the storytelling.  There is a lot of action and intrigue, as well as continual butting of heads between the two main protagonists.  Both characters have reasons for their behaviors, but I have to admit sometimes I really did not like them very much and had a hard time getting past my feeling Seraphine was a whiny spoiled brat and Andrasteia an overbearing harpy of a mother.  That being said the premise is very intriguing and I enjoyed the author's writing style very much.  There is obviously more to come as it has a cliffhanger ending that left me wanting more.  I would definitely read book two to find out what happens next and in hopes the mother / daughter issues will find some resolution and to watch the character growth play out.  I really enjoyed the world building and the writing was clean, but I really want to like the characters I am reading - so I am putting on my hopeful cap that I can get the treat I am looking for in book two because I want more from this world.  I received this book from the author with a request for my honest review without any compensation whatsoever, other than the joy of reading a new book.
