Summary: Wonderful story
Review: I have read this author's theatre books and enjoyed them, so I took a chance on his novel even though it's about gay men and I'm a straight woman.

But I loved it. It's an exciting, romantic, sexy adventure into the world of vampires and it treats the vampire Zach Church with such respect and insight. The characters in this book are so well drawn, so much fun, so REAL, that I couldn't stop turning pages. This author really knows his storytelling and he has come up with such an unusual premise for his story that it makes everthing feel so fresh, like nothing you've ever read before. I also loved the mix of moods -- very, very funny one moment, than achingly romantic (and sometimes REALLY sexy), then genuinely horrific -- just like the real world. It's a tribute to his storytelling abilities that you accept the fact of vampirism so easily. I'm buying copies of In the Blood for all my friends this Christmas. It's a great read!

Summary: One of the best novels I've read in a while
Review: It's the best gay romance I've read in a long time. It's also one of the best vampire stories I've read in a while. It's also one of the funniest novels I've encountered. I'm not sure what category it fits into, but it's a wonderful story with well-drawn, deeply emotional characters, and an ending that will keep you guessing until the last pages. I read the thing in one evening and then found myself sad that I would no longer be spending time with these characters. I hope there's a sequel, or better yet, a prequel! But beware, there is some very explicit sex in here and some utterly gruesome scenes that lept off the page at me. Powerful, involving stuff!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Wild Ride
Review: The back of this book says it's a roller coaster ride and they aren't kidding. I never read such a wild story -- very romantic, very funny, but also really sad, really scary, and REALLY erotic!! Also, there's some pretty gory stuff. But somehow this guy pulls it altogether and makes it work. I loved this book. I hated when I got to the end because I was so into these characters and this story. I totally reccommend this book if you don't mind the explicit sexual stuff and the gory stuff. It's a great vampire story but it's also a wonderful romance story.
