Before the Clan novels, there was the Curse!,
By
This review is from: The Devil's Advocate (Trilogy of the Blood Curse, Book One) (Paperback)
I became interested in reading the Trilogy of the Blood Curse after reading the Clan Novel series. This first book, centering around the elder Ventrue, Owain, starts off a bit slow but ends with a flourish. Everything takes place in Atlanta, where we get to see our old friends Benison, Hanna, Benjamin, Thelonius, and others before the Clan novel series. Owain, though not directly involved in the local politics, does carry some weight around with his experience. When the Blood Curse hits, Owain is torn between his duties to the local Prince, and his own personal feelings. In the end, the world begins to crumble around Owain as he discovers old emotions, long buried in his cold dead heart. The novel jumps around quite a bit between other vampires and other cities, this to give the reader the impression of how far the Blood Curse is spread. A few of the other stories begin to weave into the main story towards the end. Overall, a good read.

Well written,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Devil's Advocate (Trilogy of the Blood Curse, Book One) (Paperback)
Multi-dimensional, interesting characters with well-built motive, good sub-plots. Writing has nice sense of pace, lots of action. Very well written, hard to put down. Minor flaws only...too much scene jumping & I wish there was better closure at the end...but I guess he's trying to sell the second book in the series.

Incredible Vampire Story,
By Matt Barnal (New Orleans, Louisiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Devil's Advocate (Trilogy of the Blood Curse, Book One) (Paperback)
First part of a trilogy, it's amazing how the life of a vampire is changed by elements around him and how he finds many answers to his cursed life. Owain now feels redemption, and it's only the beginning. A great book, recommend this to anyone!
