The imagery- holy cow can the authors write (can you tell I cant!).The combining of genres- The book combines horror, romance, action, adventure, politics, war, steampunk, and satire with such ease that you don’t even realize you are reading a book outside your comfort zone because it blends so perfectly.The characters are so well written, I was never confused. In addition to Adele, you have (and this is just a few of them) Greyfriar (but who is he really?), Clark- the American War Hero (again- who is he really?), Colonel Anhalt (I loved him- he is so sweet), Lord Kelvin (I think he will be big in book 2), Mamoru (such an interesting character), Selkirk, Simon and one of my favorite characters Flay. You have Princess Adele, the main character of the story. ![]() These are not your superficial I’ll-put-you-in-to-take-up-pages characters but characters with meaning and a story behind each one. The characters- The book is full of them.Therefore, I am going to do a funky bullet point list of what I loved about this book and what I did not like. You are going to have many reviews for this book that will do an awesome job of detailing what the book is about and they will do a much better job of explaining the story. ![]() Update- Book 2 is The Rift Walker (Vampire Empire, #2), it will come out in September 2011, Yeah!!! ![]()
