One of my all time favorite m/m authors has a new vampire romance out? Yes please!I just LOVED this! I adored Sebastian and he was just perfect for Valentin. They were just smokin' hot together and I loved their chemistry right from the get go. I really liked the world building in this and I especially liked that it was different enough from her other vampire series that it was still fresh and new. Terrific start to what I hope will be a series. So now I want Sal's story! S.J. Frost's "Vampire Prince" is a fun book. I really enjoyed it. I liked her variation on vampires--a genre I care about deeply as a writer. Sebastian and Valentin are, ultimately, interesting characters, each with his own back-story. To my mind, they started out a little two-dimensional, and I felt that the launch of the story was, if not rushed exactly, a bit too quickly managed. Valentin's arrival into Sebastian's world just happened too fast. Some tighter editing would, I think, have helped solved this problem, as well as smoothing out some rough writing.That said, the book gets better and better as it progresses; the author's voice gets more sure, the characters get more complex; and the action more interesting. I liked Basil and Sal, and particularly enjoyed the back-and-forth banter among the four men--the way Sebastian becomes part of their world and embraces them as friends. There were moments when you forgot you were dealing with paranormal creatures, and felt that you were just in the presence of four young men, behaving like twenty-somethings. That was a refreshing twist.
