Behind Blue Eyes by D.M. Wolfenden6/22/2023 ![]() There is a little bit of everything in here – a family saga, mystery thriller, romance… And yes, the story is very interesting, it flows and keeps readers attention from the first to the last page.įor me, the biggest asset of this novel is that the author manages to present a vampire story as a very engaging morality tale where borders between good and evil are blurred, where everybody is a victim and a culprit at the same time. But this is not such a big downside considering that this is a first novel by an obviously very talented author. Wolfenden is concentrated more on storytelling than on the development of the plot around well-built characters. ![]() Other than that most of the “building blocks” of the story are fresh and original. The only apparent cliché is the origin of one of the characters – “from Transylvania”. ![]() If there is at all such a genre as a “vampire novel”, this book is definitely not a typical one, and those who like to read vampire stories will certainly enjoy the uniqueness of this novel. ![]()
