“A very well-paced, suspenseful, and intriguing dark fantasy” Jivaja has everything one looks for in a great urban fantasy-- a diverse cast of characters, themes that modern urbanites will immediately recognize, and action-packed battle scenes.
This is a dark urban fantasy that grabs you by the throat from Chapter 1 and doesn't let go. I stayed up way too late reading this, and then cowering under the covers when the shadows in my bedroom reminded me of the vampire-like Visci who control the governments of major cities throughout the country - including Atlanta, where this novel is set (and where I live).
On interesting twist on the traditional vampire story, more focusing on the hunter than the vampire. Although the hunter hasn't yet come into her own, and so the story is more about a college age woman discovering there are things in the world which are truly horrible, and her father might be one of them.
