Narrative Conducive To Books A Dozen Black Roses (Sonja Blue #4)

Yay! This book was really a pure delight to indulge in!
I purchased this on a whim from a 2nd hand store, as the cover was just GORGEOUS, and it reminded me of the 90s The Crow Comics that I collect.
Now I want to read and own the entire series!
Our main character Sonja is an amazing force to be reckoned with, I completely idolize her! Sonja is the female version of Blade, and she is SO beautifully wicked! She isn't standing around waiting for some man to help save her, nope, she is kicking ass, taking notes all on her own! Which is exactly the type of female lead character I LOVE to read about! <3
This is heavy on the evil Vamp culture from the 90s, and it was written before our beloved fanged creatures turned all pretty, sparkly and popular. I sure missed these evil Vamps! There is gore, and violence to the max, so this is not for the faint of heart. No sparkly pretty fanged teenagers here, these are ancient cruel evil gods. So move along Twilighters. haha.
This was such a delicious treat, I can't wait to pick up the others.
A true hidden gem, I recommend to all fans of the original Vampires!

Evaluate About Books A Dozen Black Roses (Sonja Blue #4)
Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.4

3.5 stars rounded up. I love the character Sonja blue. She really carries the books. I personally did not like the plot here. Just not my thing. Its only a 200~ page book and yet there were places this book felt like filler and slowed the book down. Some exposition for the bad guys I didnt care about. I thought this was a cool crossover, and more of a companion novel instead of a part of the Sonja Blue series. It was a fun book. However there were some places I found the dialogue unbelievable

Excellent merging of the Sonia Blue series with White Wolf's Vampire the Masquerade rpg mythos, a part of White Wolf's fiction line. Sonia is always good reading and this was no exception. Collins has a few series that I like a lot.

Deadtown is the centre of a turf war between two vampires of different houses. The scarce population knows to go into hiding when the sun goes down, aside from a five year old boy who is trying to reach his mum, whom the monsters have stolen. In the midst of this a stranger arrives into town with an agenda of her own. Since rescuing the mother of the little boy fits in with her plans she agrees to do so. She enters the house of Escher and swears fealty and he accepts not knowing the consequences

I found this book to be a fun read. I must say that I did think that there where some issues with the story, almost as if the author had to force herself to write within the restrictions of VtM. It is not a very bad book, I actually enjoyed it very much though I would like to see more by Nancy Collins done in the same manner. The better the practice the better the book.

I first read about Sonja Blue a few years ago when I read the book Sunglasses After Dark. Sonja Blue is the female version of Blade with her Corey Hart sunglasses, leather biker jacket, blue jeans, and boots. She is a vampire/vampire slayer whose only goal in life is to kill all the kindred ( that's the term for vampires in the Sonja Blue universe ) and destroy the one who stripped her of her humanity all those years ago. Walking into Deadtown, she brings chaos in her wake. Sonja is determined

Sometimes good, sometimes underwhelming. The whole Vampire: the Masquerade crossover thing really did feel forced and awkward. Must go back and reread the original trilogy.
