Rating:  Summary: Drugs, sex and Rock&Roll... Review: Colm was a normal guy who moved to Dublin, 'The Big City', from Limerick to begin a new life. After almost being run over at the train station and checking into a Bed&Breakfast, he goes bar hopping. Well, in this case pub hopping. He meets a girl from a band. Most vampire fans can guess the rest. The story is short, only 115 pages, fast and tragic, but the best vampire stories are always sad - who ever heard of happy vampires? Besides members of the Malkavian Clan, of course. I took one point away for two things. One, vampires in the novel could still drink, eat normal food, have sex and all that. Kind of makes them a tad too normal. The second was the character of Colm's all TOO fast adjustment to being a vampire. He slipped into the part too easily for me to believe. I hope the author writes a few more books, maybe creating some of longer length and greater detail. With less coke use.
