it was amazing

bookshelves: mystery, alt-history, re-read

Creative and cunning take on Vampires!

I'd read this some years ago and picked it up recently on an e-book sale - I'm glad I did.

Hambly does a great job of creating an Edwardian setting with an Oxford don (who is also disenchanted ex-spy) being drafted (blackmailed, really) by a vampire to investigate who is killing vampires. Plenty of twists and turns, as well as fun world-building imagining the world and "life" of vampires. Happily a series with many episodes, too - I'm already on to the next one!
