Empire of the Vampire

It was fun to be reading Kristoff again. His books are fun but there is an unexpected depth and darkness to them that make them more than just a fun romp. Gabriel is an interesting character and the supporting cast was also well realized in this one. Gabriel’s sword was unexpected. I really enjoy Kristoff’s humor but if you don’t like sarcasm or inventive curses you may have issues with it. This is a well told story with a medium to fast pace that made the pages fly by. I look forward to the sequel.
