This is probably one of the more boring Vampire Chronicles books, and I came out of it disliking Marius quite a bit. I was mostly disappointed in this book.

tifftastic87's review against another edition
I genuinely cannot continue. Marius's commentary on young teens is too much for me to handle. It was already slow enough but now we have comments where he couldn't stop kissing her "baby woman skin" and "sensual and alluring as only young boys and girls can be." Bro, absolutely not.

what is the point of Thorne's existence? he's useless. and literally no one wants a whole book from marius' point of view. daniel was the best part they should've elaborated on him. marius is a total incel i do not care for him.
