Review: Ditch the blurb - buy the book
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 10 16, 2013
I discovered this author with Widdershins, read Threshold and Hainted.  Really enjoyed everything I read, but I held off from trying this series.  The blurb put me off. Vampires, sigh, really? As it happens I'm very glad I tried the sample and I'm now on book 4.The vampire in this story is Gray - and I love him.  It's a lovely take on the vampire myth and really works.  I'd happily read a book from Gray's POV.  The human characters John and Caleb also work, though for some reason Caleb tends to irritate me a bit, but doubtless that's just me. Each 'episode' of the series is well written, and delivers a fully rounded plot line.The style of publishing what are essentially novellas is very clever marketing.  They give a nice, quick read, and mean that 'episodes' of the series aren't delayed while the author completes a 500 page opus.  I'm extremely happy to have well written, shorter reads, rather than wait a year for the next book.Great series - if the blurb is making you hesitate, download the sample.
