I for one am SO ready for the Vampire genre to rise from the dead. There’s been a lot of buzz about this book so I was looking forward to sinking my teeth into it.

Soul of the Sword pretty much picks up where Shadow of the Fox finished off. I really enjoyed the previous book in this series so was chuffed to bits to be approved for this sequel.
