Start your review of Shades - The Demise of Blake Beck

This is a fantasy involving undead people and the realm of life after death incorporating some historical facts in the mix. The story itself didn't impress me as I couldn't understand the point of a lot of things said and done in it. The 'Dan Brown'ish elements do not gel properly with the rest of the story. There were some moments where the author showed a lot of promise. I feel that the author could have done a lot better with the premise he created, but has fallen short.

This is a grown-up urban fantasy story with a ton of historical, philosophical and factual depth. The mysteries (some times very real!) of art, architecture and history is masterfully woven into a story of life beyond death. The story is a fast paced and action filled, yet still philosophical and with a focus on historical detail.

Vampires and Heroes!
Blake Beck, a new kind of hero. I thoroughly enjoyed this wonderful story, and its decent into the next realm "Shades". It becomes a mystical battle of the shadows, and it's a unique story. I recently became a fan of vampires and the world of other realms, and this story just spoke to me. Truly enjoyable and a wondrous energetic read!
