REVIEW:

Occasionally I come across a title from a small publisher that not only attracts my attention but really screams for it. Such is the case with this book by D Scott Meek as 24 charges headlong into Daybreakers to create this amalgam of Science Fiction and Urban Fantasy.

The characters within are fascinating and when packed with a descent cast alongside a story of cataclysmic proportions, you know that the plot is going to be something big.

Finally add a descent author voice, some reasonable prose alongside some cracking twists and it’s a book of definite interest.
