Blood Moon – book review

Posted on February 23, 2011 by laina

If Vampire stories aren’t your thing you might still want to take a chance on Blood Moon by the mysteriously name Bitten2ice. This book combines many different types of characters, some human-some not, who then the author effortlessly stages to interact with each other in a way that is seemingly normal. Well, as normal as Vampires, Were-Devils, and Demons can be when they interact with humans. But really it works in this book. She has given the non-humans enough of the human side to make you connect with them good or bad, you can somewhat see where they are coming from.

The action is compelling enough to make you want to keep reading to see what will happen next and you begin to hope good things will happen for some of the characters who seem to be caught up in a lot of drama.

I enjoyed this book. It was face paced, kept me entertained, I liked the characters, and could get into the fantasy part of it.

Looking forward to the next one.
