I didn't love this one, but it's an enjoyable read. The characters are a little simplistic, and the creatures' mythology is a little complicated for my taste, but the plot is interesting, and I like how Compton blends vampire tales from many regions and times. There are a couple of places where characters are just like, "Yes, this totally outlandish thing makes perfect sense," which I find a little jarring.
