Overall, an interesting and fun read. I really liked how all of these historic events tied into the vampire plot. As you read, you feel like it is being told by Abe Lincoln. However, sometimes the book was slow and boring. Mostly in the middle when there wasn't any vampire action. We get tons of background information about Abe, his family and friends, but the juicy bits of the Civil War aren't as long or detailed in comparison, which is a shame because it was exciting to read.
By the way, if you watched the movie first or at all, you'll notice that both are VERY different. Yeah, they got the point that Abe is a vampire hunter who wields an axe with Henry helping him out, but the movie makes up a lot of scenes and some characters.
If you like history and vampires, give it a try.
