Melina Velba Pregnant

vampire plague - London, 1850

inspired by the cover, is not it? Unfortunately, despite appearances, this is not a book that has me excited to celestial levels: the author has somehow managed to stand up to history, but so far not been able to find strong support for the next sequences reached stupid compromises. In short, even to have someone on the side of the main characters has sacrificed the character of one of the main characters (the director of the British Museum), describing him as a person rather reckless, indulgent and gullible ... but these qualities could confer a similar title to someone? Mah ..
As for the "scene", I must say that I liked enough: more precisely, the location of dell'effigie Kamazotz, the Aztec god of destruction (uuuuuuhh. ..), surrounded by dark red roses with thorns unnaturally elongated. For those who had arrived there, they represent the blood of canine and vampires: P
The pace of the narrative is too restrained for my taste: there are scenes of suspense in which, logically, you'd think to find short and broken sentences, and instead the author propina times you messed up the mileage subject - ____________-''
The narrative itself is too ... mechanics: In each sentence the author is concerned only to report what's going on, without worrying too much about the "how" to report.
Overall Rating: 6
