Why read it?

1 author picked Hunter of the Dead as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This is a vampire book. I don't think I need to tell you that the market for vampire stories is varied and saturated. So when I come across a vampire book that really tells a different tale, while still respecting the centuries worth of lore and preceding tales, I am a very happy reader. Hunter of the Dead is an intense, action-packed story that also has some of the established characteristics of vampire lore well represented. It's hard to tackle an occasionally overdone genre and come out fresh and unique. This book managed that handily.
