The review was mixed, and contained at least one glaring factual error (the book was not originally released by Night Shade; they’re thinking of The Sword-Edged Blonde)*, but they did give me this jewel:
“Bledsoe . . . employs a suave, creepy style that suits the story.”
Suave and creepy. I’ll take that. It is a vampire novel, after all.
Read the whole review here; scroll about three-quarters of the way down.

One Comment on “Publishers Weekly on "Blood Groove"”
Ouch.
My 2nd book from Llewellyn just got a “this isn’t terrible but I liked her 1st book better” review (from someone I like, damn it). Suddenly I feel better about it.
Oh, well, at least you got a NYT review, right?
Are any of the reviewer’s complaints on target, or did he/she just not get the story?
