Appraise Appertaining To Books The Greyfriar (Vampire Empire #1)

Dang, this cover's way cooler!

I expected this to be more urban fantasy but it leant closer to PNR. The world building is very heavy in the beginning, it takes awhile for the story to get going. It's pretty good after that.

Whoah my dear book! Steady now, you just might make me fall on my arse with all the ROCKING youre doing! Im in love!Im in love with the story, Im in love with the authors and most importantly Im in love with Gareth. My only tiny problem with the book was the POV switching. It worked so well for Adele and Gareth, but sucked for the other characters. It got me bored. But I wont take away any stars from the rating because everything was awesome and I had a great time reading experiencing the book.

This is a book with a lot of buzz and good reviews, and the novel has some nice things going for it. The pace is frenetic; the action starts in the first chapter and rarely tapers off. The setting is creative and it's fun to think about the world the Griffiths have created. Basing humanity in the tropics was a stroke of world-building genius. But there are significant problems with the setting, plot, and characters.Character: The characters are really one-dimensional. Adele is yet another form

Note: I received a review copy of this book compliments of the publisher, in exchange for my honest opinions. Thanks, Pyr/Prometheus Books!Vampires and steampunk! The former, obviously, is a topic that's been wildly popular for years and years. The latter, as well, has been a subgenre gaining more traction in the science fiction and fantasy world lately, hence the fact that I would finally stumble across a book which unites both concepts in the foundation for its story was only a matter of time!

Looking at all of the absolutely glowing reviews of Greyfriar I feel like I'm definitely in the minority, but the story didn't grab me enough to give it 4 stars. I did enjoy reading it, and I liked the unique alternate world that the authors created.Buuuuut... I just couldn't bring myself to really care about the characters until the book was almost over.Greyfriar isn't a romance, but there is nice slow burn love story woven throughout it. It was pretty well done, and probably what helped me

Absolutely loved it! Fabulous world building. I love the idea of a vampire empire, the characters were great. I don't normally read the books one after another in a series, but I plan to with this series as I am so invested!
