Vampire: The Masquerade‘s role-playing world offers plenty of intrigue and diversity but the chronological re-editing of multiple novels tends to mar an otherwise engrossing series.
Vampire Hesha’s story is over-written and uneventful yet it dominates this second collection whilst the laboured build-up to major events causes structural shortcomings.
With future volumes offering more conclusions and twists this is still a series worth sticking with and a great introduction to the realm of role-playing games.

The Vampire RPG has inspired some amazing art. I think there is a whole book devoted to it out there somewhere.
Have you ever played the game?

No, I haven’t, lol, I’m not good at that sort of thing. I do love vampire stories though, I have a few old Poppy Z. Bright compilations.

The great thing about the Vampire system is that it’s inspired lots of spin-off novels about all different types of vampires from modern dandies to old school nosferatu. Keep a look out for them in second-hand book stores or cheap on ebay. There are some good reads 🙂 x
