Not as much Fun as Previous Installments,

This review is from: Vampire Files 04 Art In The Blood (Paperback)
Book Review by C. Douglas BakerSPOILER FOR BLOODCIRCLE, BOOK THREE OF THE VAMPIRE FIILES. After BLOODCIRCLE, Book Three of the Vampire Files, I wondered where the story would lead since the mystery of Maureen's disappearance had been solved. In ART IN THE BLOOD, Book Four of the Vampire Files, Jack Fleming, our moralist vampire, befriends a group of artists and eventually finds himself in the middle of a murder investigation. Notice I said "eventually". ART IN THE BLOOD is meandering and irritating because half of the book could have been removed with little effect on the plot and storyline. The first third of the book is interesting but nothing much happens. The novel mucks around for awhile after the murder occurs. Finally, Jack has an insight as to who the murderer is and uses his hypnotic powers of persuasion to get at the truth. All in all, not much of story. ART IN THE BLOOD is a disappointment after three fairly entertaining jaunts. Having read the series in order the familiarity of the characters kept me minimally interested. Unless you just must complete a series once you start it like me, I would recommend skipping ART IN THE BLOOD.

Jack Fleming, art critic,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vampire Files 04 Art In The Blood (Paperback)
Well my friends, it was good checking in to see what our famous vamprie is up to. I really enjoyed this book. Jack is up to his old tricks, but this time, he has entered the world of art. I highly suggest the book. It was a real page turner. If you start it, you won't put it down, and you won't be sorry. :O)=

My second favorite in the series,
By RavenRing - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vampire Files 04 Art In The Blood (Paperback)
In this book our favorite vampire, Jake Fleming, is back and as funny as ever! This is not supposed to be a comedy, but Jack is such a great character, he really makes you laugh. I thought that this book was very entertaining, and well written. It was different from the other books, but that only makes it better. The first in the series is actually my favorite, but this one comes in second.

One sexy vampire,
By Roslyn Carrington "a.k.a. Simona Taylor" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vampire Files 04 Art In The Blood (Paperback)
Strangely enough, I wasn't as thrilled with Art in the Blood as I was with the first three Vampire Files novels, which blew me away. It seemed to lack the audacious dialogue and gut-gripping suspense of the other Jack Flemming mysteries. The plot was also just a tad predictable, and didn't have the sudden twists, turns and cliff-hangers of the others.But Jack is still Jack, the lovable and utterly sexy vampire that he is, and he and Escott still have their wonderful masculine chemistry. Worth adding to your collection. |
