"Set in early nineteenth-century Britain, Bloodlust & Bonnets follows Lucy, an unworldly debutante who desires a life of passion and intrigue--qualities which earn her the attention of Lady Violet Travesty, the leader of a local vampire cult. But before Lucy can embark on her new life of vampiric debauchery, she finds herself unexpectedly thrown together with the flamboyant poet Lord Byron ("from books!") and a mysterious bounty-hunter named Sham. The unlikely trio lie, flirt, fight, and manipulate each other as they make their way across Britain, disrupting society balls, slaying vampires, and making every effort not to betray their feelings to each other as their personal and romantic lives become increasingly entangled"--Amazon.… (mehr)
Amusing, projecting incisive and silly contemporary wit onto a milieu from the past. The Monty Python comparison is apt, particularly the Lord Byron character.
The coloring of the artwork is an under praised star; really pleasing. ( )
It was fine, although the story felt like it went everywhere. I wasn’t really impressed with the art. I did find the story funny and I enjoy vampires. ( )
Vampire hunting (but what for?) GN just barely amusing enough to get through with increasing episodes of is-they-into-me as the nonsense piles higher and deeper and a Walter Scott and Byron rivalry goes absurdly ballistic. The art's featureless faces get so strange some characters could be taken for headless. ( )
