Limited review on my site ( ) A copy of was supplied by the author in exchange for a review. Well...it was an interesting short story, to say the least. I quite liked the start of it, told from the point of view of a vampire who's been around for centuries musing on the modern renditions of vampires in books and media. Quite amusing and in a way quite a realistic tone. The friendship developed with Tom over the same sort of things, brought into the vampire's gaming business....then just at the end a sudden change in tone for the vampire. Which threw me completely. Wasn't expecting that. It felt like a prologue for a much longer novel. So many things put forward but not explored nearly as much I would have liked to see. Very enjoyable and well written. I've just finished reading 'I Am Eternal' by Athanasios. It's a vampire short story that ironically has Simeon (the main character) complain about the glut of vampire fiction. In fairness the vampires in this world are not the romanticized versions that have become so popular in books and film. The story itself is well written and well paced, although the ending feels a little abrupt, but does set up the rest of the series well. The language is a little stilted, with an archaic tone, but that works considering the character. Simeon provides some interesting observations on his time on Earth and I felt that more could have been done with this. I had a couple of minor issues, the first is that some pre-existing knowledge is assumed. For the most part they don't affect the main plot. I'm a game developer so I found the slightly changed names of real companies off-putting, it might have been better to create a fictional company. They're minor complaints, it was an enjoyable story,that brings something a little different to the table and is well worth checking out. I've just finished reading 'I Am Eternal' by Athanasios.
