As a long-term lover of the classics, Pride & Prejudice in particular, I wondered what I would get with this book. Would I love it or loathe it? Would it stay true to the original or go completely farcical?

What I got was a book that thrilled me with the story just as much as the original did. The language is true to form, the behaviour, the attitudes, it's all there. Only now add in the spice of an even more haughty and sultry Mr Darcy as he tries to contend with his vampiric nature.

Trust me when I say that this paranormal addition actually added something for me, it certainly didn't take anything away from the story. I devoured this book, only putting it down when I absolutely had to. If you like Paranormal and also the British Classics, then I really can't recommend this highly enough. It combines the two with excellent narrative, skill and aplomb. Highly Recommended.

This well written story line pulls you in right from the very beginning and immediately puts you right into all of the action, the unexpected treachery and the paranormal elements. The author's world building and characters are right on. I gave this four stars because there were some times were the story seems to lose its pace and dragged on a bit.

{I received an eARC when I signed up to host the book tour. I made no guarantee of a favorable review and the opinions expressed here are unbiased and my own.}

Not for everyone
I personally have always struggled this the series not just theone book from a young age. It may personally be because, as I grew up, I found I was more into true Horror/paranormal/distopian genres but I found this book very easy to put down and forget about and could never seem to get more than half way through the book and boredom caused me to put it down. I appreciate it's seen as literary genius but it is certainly not everyone's cup of tea.

Now I have that Rolling Stones song stuck in my head...
I loved this story. It really wasn't scary at all, but it had a good paranormal fantasy aspect to it, with a little murder mystery and promises of revenge. It kept me interested until the end, which was ALMOST satisfying. The book made me laugh, made me angry, and made me sad sometimes. I only realized after I finished that the author is actually Stephen King's son. I love Stephen King's stories. His son has a gift of his own though.
