Copy received from New South Books for an honest review

King of Blood and Battle is my first read from this author, and I can see why she has so many fans.

I am not a huge fan of this genre, but something about the blurb called to me.

I did not have any expectations for this book, so I was not sure if I would be wowed or disappointed in it.

And whilst there is nothing new to this story - the plot has been done before - take away the vampire thing and it is just a love triangle with jealousy and cringey behaviour all around - but there was something about it that was just so darn entertaining (but not sure if it was because I liked it a lot, or if it was a case of it is so bad it is good - I think it was more of the latter).

But I kept going and even thought I was conflicted, I read it all, and I know I will go ahead and read more of this series in the future.
