I picked this up, virtually sight unseen. When I flicked through - as I intimated - the art put me off a little and my expectations were lowered.<BR/><BR/>As I read it, however, the art very much grew on me and I was really sucked into the story - blowing apart my expectations.<BR/><BR/>I did find that whilst Bite Club almost had the vampirism as a secondry issue, "Vampire Crime Unit" actually used the vampirism a lot more.<BR/><BR/>Curious, re the sequel however, do you have the name.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally the 30 days round up I promised a couple of weeks ago will be posted in the next post.Taliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-24139780986705953002007-10-10T16:19:00.000-07:002007-10-10T16:19:00.000-07:00I don't think I liked it as much as you.

I don't really think of it as a vampire story too much; they barely touch on the mythology and it doesn't play a significant role in the plot. With that being the case, I'm not into mafia stories so I didn't care for this too much.<BR/><BR/>There's a sequel by the way, which is more of the same. So if you like this one, you might like that one too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
