Damien Ruthven was prepared to despise the latest Lord Byron biography to come across his desk. To his surprise, it was the most accurate one he'd ever read, despite a few errors. The authoress, Brice Ashton, knew things about Byron no other biographer ever had written- and Ruthven should know, since he was once Byron. In a case of the cure being possibly as bad as the disease, he'd long ago sought a cure for his epilepsy, with the result that he was now virtually immortal. Being so set apart from the rest of the world turned him into a very lonely man, nothing thrilled him and he didn't expect it to, until in answer to his summons, Brice walks into his life. Once more, he feels alive, yet he has made his angel a target. The creature who made him what he is wanted to kill him and thus find atonement before its own death. If Brice interferes, she is fair game as well.

***** Vibrant originality makes this what can best be described as a fast paced modern gothic novel It is the kind of book you don't want to end, but still want to see how it ends. Though I adore Ms Jackson's goblin novels- this surpasses them in excellence. *****

This was not one of my favorite books. The plot moved extremely slow. After reading about 134 pages, I gave up on this book getting any more interesting.
