4.0 out of 5 stars
Bloody but rewarding,
By christine white (Birmingham, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Bites (Paperback)
I was given this and it's not my usual choice, but I must say I did enjoy it a great deal. There are some great moments of humour but the violence is quite offensive in places. I wouldn't say it was over the top but it is powerfully written and a strong stomach is needed. That said, I enjoyed this very much. There's a great story and the take on vampires is wonderful and effectively chilling. But be careful, it is strong stuff.

Hot stuff!,
By Chris Wood (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Bites (Paperback)
I bought this because I've read other books by Caveney, and this is one of his best. I read it in a night and haven't enjoyed a book this much for years. Love Bites is the kind of thriller you can't out down.I've been very disappointed with horror novels recently, but this is a restoration of faith. There are a number of elements I really love - good violence, fun, some decent heavy breathing sex and plenty of atmosphere. Parts of the book grabbed me especially, but the whole thing is superb. If it was a film, think Evil Dead 2.

I was bitten,
This review is from: Love Bites (Paperback)
Another thriller from a master of his craft. It races along at a cracking pace, and I was hooked (or is that 'drained'?) from the start. Vampires - and their novels - come in lots of forms, and this one has many new twists and lashings of red stuff. For fans of the vampire genre, this is an original, must-read new spin on a familiar theme: spread the word. It's an ebook: that's 'e' for easy to download, 'e' for an exciting read, and 'e' for eeearrghh! look out, it's behind you!

I've been bitten!,
By Paul Hughes (U.K.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Bites (Paperback)
I loved this! I've read all of his other books and it's been a long wait for this one, but it was worth it! It's kind of like a vampire story, but not like one you ever read before...these are vampires as they really are, not Bela Lugosi capes and fangs; and I love the way Caveney's able to switch from moments of genuine terror to laugh out loud funny. This is a worthy successor to Skin Flicks and Speak No Evil. If you haven't read his novels yet, you've got a treat in store!
