A review by wjlongiii
Nightshades by Melissa F. Olson

5.0

I have been a fan of Melissa F. Olson's Old World series for a while, having read all the mainline novels, but I never got around to this series. So I put on audible, and before I knew it, I had burned through this entire book.

I love the variation she takes with the vampires in this setting. Where the Old World books lean heavily on magic, Nightshades is very scientific in its approach. I'm not sure which I prefer, but I can say that having the world know of their existence is fresh and exciting, especially from the FBI angle taken here.

I have already bought book two and will ravenously consume it the same way I did this novel. If you like Vampires with a bit more science and less mysticism, try this one out. I believe you will be more than satisfied.
