About book The Girls With Games Of Blood (2010)

While I liked the story better than that in Blood Groove, I still don't like most of the characters. I hate the main character, Baron Zginski. The one character I had grown to sort of like was horribly killed. I hated the end. I still say it's a well-written book for what it is, but it is definitely not for me. If there are any more in this series, I will not read them. I love the author's Eddie LaCrosse series. I haven't yet read The Hum and the Shiver, although I have it. I hope it's better than this. I enjoyed the first book in this series, BLOOD GROOVE, very much, but this one didn't have quite the same kick. One of the strengths of the first was the comparison and competition of the human and vampire characters, but there weren't any strong human characters here. Most of the surviving vampires from the first book return, but didn't seem as strong somehow; I wasn't convinced that that Count Zginski would be so captivated by a muscle car, for example. The '70s style and flavor and Southern Gothic setting are most entertaining, and the brief flashes of occasionally very dark humor are great. The one big thing that really ruined it for me was that the book winds down and ends, everything is is tied up neatly, and then, completely out of nowhere, there's a deus ex machina time travel twist introduced that tacks on a whole different ending. I got the feeling that the author came up with two conclusions that he liked and couldn't decide which one to use so he tossed them both in. It was still fun to read, but I think it could used a strong editorial hand.
