The Birth of a Nyxian
by Amanda R. Browning
A different kind of vampire book where the species is linked to Greek Mythology. The story starts out in Montana with an encounter between a loner history fanatic woman gazing at stars and a hungry chivalrous vampire not controlled by Hades. They meet, romance and end up on the run as Lillith, Hades daughter and recruiter, discover that the vampire Aiden is vulnerable through his new love interest. The mega wealthy Aiden spirits, Harlow-history fanatic, around the world attempting to avoid confrontations with Hades minions. No more on the edge of spoilers for you.
I found this to be a very well constructed story. Though switching points of view the way it was done in this work is not something I generally enjoy the author did manage to pull it off giving you both protagonists outlook.
Five out of five whatever measures float your boat for an original and well executed run at a vampire story.
Refreshing indeed! This is a vampire story I could get into. I’m adding it to my ever-growing list.
