one part interview with the vampire, one part bloodborne, one part the witcher, all around fucking fantastic. so, wow. that was just, that was amazing. it was one of those stories that made me forget i was reading a book, i just got so easily immersed in the world. and now there's a little hole in my heart because of it, you best believe i am buying the next book the second it gets released.

This has got to be the best book I’ve read so far in 2024!

(If you’re looking for smut, this is not it. But if you enjoy dark fantasy, vampires, horror elements, lots of swearing, and gripping writing, this is the book for you! 🖤)
