This one is just fantastic fun. Set in an alternate history's future, one in which decidedly non-sparkly vampires are real and have risen up and destroyed human civilization throughout the temperate zone and colder climates just ahead of the industrial revolution, and humans have retreated to the eq...
I have a new favorite vampire and his name is Gareth. Couldn't put this down today, what a story! Review to come. Steampunk take two and this one was an absolute gem. Princess Adele, heir to the Equatoria throne, is on a routine diplomatic tour when her airship convoy is attacked by a strike team ...

I loved that it is set in London and Edinburgh. You have great locations such as Edinburgh Castle, Tower of London and...
3,5 stars, actually.Real good world of vampires, dark and savages, and hungry. Their are not 'the living dead' but parasites ... Though their origin as a race was never explained. Hope we have it in the next book.Adele anoys me every time she 'talks', very 19's century speech type heroine. Greyfriar...
