Review: Come Forth In Blood by Ryan Henry and Matthew Heilman

Come Forth in BloodCome Forth in Blood by Ryan Henry
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It's no secret that the Vampire genre has been beaten into the ground with silly pulp like Twilight and all of the Sookie Stackhouse books. While many authors still hop on the bloodsucking bandwagon in hopes of turning a quick buck by churning out "supernatural romance" novels, authors like Ryan Henry and Matthew Heilman seek to turn the genre on its head by writing real horror stories mixed with an almost noir-like grimness. "Come Forth In Blood" is very well written. The narrative moves along without stalling and the characters are well defined and the dialogue never feels forced or unrealistic. Cheers to the authors for producing one of the most original works of vampire fiction in a long time.
