Empire of the Vampire is sensational; a deliciously bloody slice of dark fantasy that leaves you thirsting for more.

Review: Certain Dark Things by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Certain Dark Things is the new, sharply set, novel from Silvia Moreno-Garcia; it bares its fangs right away with action scenes in fast beats under the glow of the neon lights.
