Ruhegeist's Reviews > Blood Price

I will admit that this lingering cold may be coloring my opinion of this book. Other reviewers are correct, there is nothing groundbreaking, earth shattering, or intellectual about this book. There are other much better vampire books out there. The characters were stereotypical and the plot rather blase with no surprise twists. What suspense Huff was trying to create failed due to the evident plot and its requirements. While Vicki may be a strong female character, her overly abrasive and defensive attitude dominated over her deductive capabilities which should have been developed more. As another reviewer mentioned, more emphasis on Henry's need to feed connected with sex would have made for a much darker and more interesting character. Celluci needs something evil to happen to him. Make him disappear. There was nothing attractive about his character. Evil little nerd was the epitome of all stereotypes.

On the upside, the little D&D scene made me laugh.

What is with editors these days? I need to research their actual process. Shouldn't they be catching all the grammar errors, incomplete sentences, etc? Yeesh. This is the second series I've delved into with consistent errors throughout the writing.
