I absolutely loved this book. I've been reading a LOT of vampire literature and when I tell you this is fresh take on vampires, it's FRESH. Moreno Garcia solves the age old question of what bits of lore apply to the vampires in question by simply having different vampire species that are endemic to different regions of the world. What a galaxy brain take. The lore of this universe is pretty extensive, but it doesn't overwhelm the story. The author isn't overly descriptive and yet the setting, alternating between neon-noir and gothic is lush.
I recommend this book HIGHLY
