Editorial Reviews

Review

I've read some pretty good vampire novels from Anne Rice and Barbara Hambly, among others, but this innovative retelling of the popular (and often stale) vampire genre blew me away. It was better than any of those.  It was better than I hoped it could be.  Get a copy of Destiny's Forge for yourself today. -- Ravenhurst, Novelcritic.com
