The novel is a refreshing change from tales of woe told by individuals damned to an eternity of solitude. On the contrary, these Vampyres are grateful for the power and life that the Vyrus allows them, which makes their stories all the more exciting. No two characters in the book are alike, and Joe's quest to discover the secrets of the Vampyre world is paved with an eclectic mix of unfamiliar faces. The novel isn't for everyone, Huston's style is definitely a question of personal taste, and I'd recommend borrowing the book if you can, rather than buying. If you decide it's to your taste, there are four more novels that follow Joe Pitt in New York - this isn't the first so you may want to read them in order - though I think it works fine as a standalone. There are also plenty more novels by [[:Category:Charlie Huston|Charlie Huston]] to sink your teeth into. With this novel he provides a break from tradition and a truly well-construed noir atmosphere complete with violence, gore and debauchery.
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to The Bookbag. We also have a review of [[My Dead Body (Joe Pitt Casebook) by Charlie Huston]].
If this book appeals then we think that you might also enjoy [[Unmarked Graves by Shaun Hutson]].
