A review by nigellicus
Hide Me Among the Graves by Tim Powers

adventurous dark mysterious tense

5.0

A giant of modern fantasy, Powers mixes history and the fantastic, and this sequel to Stress Of Her Regard has a game of cat and mouse set in London, 1862, as vampires and poets and a vet and an ex-prostitute battle it out and chase each other round in move and counter-move, attack and defense across streets and bridges and rooftops and sewers and genteel dining rooms and, of course, graves. I loved it. Rollicking adventure, vampires that barely recognisable as such bu actually scary and poor wee vulnerable humans getting put through the emotional and physical wringer. Great stuff.
