This book was quite difficult to get started with because the overt slavery and the casual use of the n word made me uncomfortable. There was also quite a lot of dull boat talk at the start which made me wonder if I had made a mistake.

It certainly picked up though and was quite a good take on the vampire story. The two main characters worked well together and there was an interesting cast of secondary characters. There were also two exposition-heavy flashback sections which while enjoyable and informative, felt a little clunky.

Overall this was an enjoyable read.

Not a bad book just nothing great about it. Mostly typical vampire stuff.
