“Touch of Evil”
This is an uncompleted post from 2008. I’m never going to finish, so I am releasing it as is. Enjoy.
First off this is not only a vampire novel, it is published under a romance imprint. So, yeah, there is some fairly graphic sex here. Thankfully, it has NOTHING on the sheer amount of kink in a current Anita Blake novel. What does make me a bit nervous is this is the first in a series, so I have a feeling that it is going to get extremely out of hand really quickly. I enjoyed this entry, but I doubt I am going to seek out the next volume.
Secondly, this is the first book that I’ve read in eBook form. A few months back Tor released a series of no cost downloads of some of their books to readers who had signed up for their newsletter, and this is the first one that I’ve completed. I’ve spent a few hours of face-to-face time lamenting how much it hurts my eyes to read any significant amount of text on a screen, so it was refreshing to me how nice this was on me in a physical way. Maybe it had more to do with the small screen size (on my AT&T Tilt) and maybe it was the LCD vs CRT, but I read the whole thing in a fairly short period of time with no mechanical difficulties.
