Why read it?
1 author picked Balthazar as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is the fifth book of the Evernight series by Claudia Gray, but I believe it can be read as a standalone. It’s my favorite, too. Here we see a more traditional approach to the vampire myth. Silver, stakes, and running water are weaknesses. I love Balthazar. He’s a bit brooding, but also interesting. The villains are truly chilling. You know what? I think I’m going to re-read this one right now.
From Selene's list on vampires with a unique, spicy bite.
