Release Date: 07/10/10BOOK BLURB:
THE CLOCKWORK VAMPIRES THIRST FOR BLOOD-OIL. The land of Falanor has fallen. On his way to recruit reinforcements to launch the counter-attack, the mighty hero Kell finds himself the prey of two beautiful but deadly vampire assassins. Their bronze fangs are coming for him.
REVIEW:
Andy is perhaps best known for his hardcore science fiction tales and recently has expanded into the realm of Fantasy with his last two titles. Whilst I had a number of problems with the first story, this second one feels like it fixed a number of the problems with the characters coming more into their own over being so similar to another authors. They grow, they claim a higher body count and their continual survival against the odds will appeal to readers who love the graphic combat that Andy is famed for. Add to the mix a good dollop of battlefield humour, a good handful of Howard’s style backed up with a stark descriptiveness and it’s a tale that gives Remic a firm footing within the genre. I look forward to seeing how he builds the next offering.
