You sold me, I am getting a used copy of this book.
Ok I read this and did like it quite a bit but don't think this author has ever met a living woman. The action was great and the characters mostly also, the men and vampires, but oh, painful to read the female characters. Always mothering, or falling apart, or providing a drink, administrative assistant.
Overall though - enjoyed it and thank you!
Very fair and accurate criticism. There also wasn't a ton of character development.
The vividness and internal monologues caught me. As did the constant tension. Stress and tension were very well portrayed such that action was a relief.
Accidentally poisoned myself and was talking out of my head.
I'll read more tomorrow, seems like a very good book so far. I especially liked the part where he cussed the pope and cried into his lap.
