This book might not be for everyone but it is for me.
I had no idea what was going on most of the time but I’m here for it. There’s something utterly absorbing about Muir’s writing that makes it impossible to put the book down even when you don’t know what you’re reading.

I don’t know what to tell you it’s not good.
The whole book reads like a bad fanfiction by someone who never bothered to read the source material it’s leeching off, and even if I were generous enough to ignore the complete massacre of every aspect of Dracula that it draws from (which I’m not) it still doesn’t stand on its own to feet as a story.
A vampire pyramid scheme… really? Surely we can do better than this.
