Complicated relationships and unexpected twists and turns mix with good old-fashioned vampire violence for a great read. More Bill Ransom!"—Nancy Holder, New York Times bestselling coauthor of The Wicked Saga
Full disclosure here, I know Bill Ransom, have taken writing workshops from him, and think he’s a bodacious author. I believe I have read every book he’s written, and some more than once, so when I saw Brother Blood Sister Death available, I bought it. THEN I read about it. Uh, I’m not a huge fan of vampire books. But Bill Ransom wrote it… I decided to trust the process, trust the author, and read the book.
Wow! Vampires alive in our time, in our space, and how they manage to survive—or not? The dialog was wonderful, the story was well written and executed by a master storyteller. The ending was spot-on!
Yes, it’s about vampires, but I don’t think you’ll get nightmares from the story. I didn’t, I truly enjoyed it. And highly recommend it. Pour yourself a martini and enjoy the ride.
