I liked Jack and Jill more than Nancy, but the plot of this book wasn’t quite as good as the first one. I still really enjoyed it for its take on vampires and portal fantasy, and I’m excited to continue with the series!

The relationship between Jill and The Master is unnerving; it is posed as “father / daughter” but seems deeper than that.
