I was looking forward to getting into a book where vampires were once again the actual blood-sucking monsters of my youth rather than tragic romantic figures. That said, this book was a bit of a disappointment. The characters were not consistent in their mannerisms: In fact I'd call the young vampires "wishy washy". None of the vampires could make up their minds whether they were good, bad, or just indifferent. The main character (more or less) being an aristocrat from the past was a let down.. Here is an extremely powerful vampire able to control peoples emotions and feelings, shapeshift, and even turn into mist and yet he's quaking in his boots scared to death of one frail ancient human who had the good luck to manage by surprise to stab him in the heart once ages ago. The lead up to the "final confrontation" with his "old enemy" is a complete let down.
