It's been many years since i read books 1 and 2 of this series and as much as i wanted to read them all together, it took me a long time to find them in paperback considering how old they are (1992). Because of their age, they are rather old fashioned in style, using terms like "vampiress" and it took me quite a bit to get back into. Once i got past the first third of the book, I was used to it and though it took me a while, i got into the series again.

I feel a little bad for Darienne, though i do think she brought it on herself and the fact that she's off to London is not looking good. As for David and Veronica, I'm happy for them. It's taken three books but they're finally getting their HAE.

And because they got their HAE, I'm confused by book 4, [b:Eternity|1935575|Eternity (David de Morrissey, #4)|Lori Herter|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1317366813s/1935575.jpg|1938087]. I always assumed it would be David and Veronica as vampires spending eternity together, but maybe it has something to to with Darienne?

I'm off to go find out.

Hey y'all! Just wanted to share something I learned a few weeks ago. Probably old news to some of you but I am thrilled. Did you know that you can get ebooks from your local library for free and download them to your Kindle or your kindle app? This way you not only get it free but you lose nothing if you don't like it. Plus it will give you more books to review on Smashbomb!
Happy hunting!

GREAT Demon Horror/Thriller
I loved this book!!! This took me back some years to my childhood days of sneaking and reading Stephen King books before I was supposed to. I had this read in two day as once I started I couldn't stop. I don't think anyone would disagree with me when I say this; this story made me think of old Stephen King stories, Robert McCammon and some others. Thoroughly enjoyed and looking forward to reading more!!!

The Mummy Case (Amelia Peabody, #3)

The third of Elizabeth Peter's <i>Amelia Peabody</i> (who is a Victorian archaeologist) series of books, this is the first one on which her incredibly precocious son Ramses is old enough to join Amelia and her husband on an expedition to Egypt.

Of course, this then turns into a mystery novel when it transpires that artifacts are being stolen from the digs(no surprise there), and when one of their acquaintances is murdered in Cairo ...

Known in the UK as <i>Much Obliged, Jeeves</i>, this is the penultimate of PG Wodehouse's Jeeves books (the last being <i>Aunt's aren't Gentlemen</i>). This one features his <quote/unquote> 'deserving Aunt Dahlia' as opposed to his Aunt Agatha, and also features a previously-unknown-to-the-reader old school friend of Bertie Wooster in Ginger Winship.

Cue the usual romantic entanglements and sheenanigans!

(oh, and we also find out Jeeves first name (it's Reginald))
