I discovered this book as Silvia Moreno-Garcia talked about it on Twitter.
It's a fascinating story, the struggle of a gay man with his internal homophobia and with a a vampire on his ship.
The style of writing is fascinating, a bit baroque and may it won't appeal if you want something simpler, and the characters are well developed.
It's a fascinating and enthralling read, a small gem I'm happy was rediscovered.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
