I picked this up on a whim at 2nd and Charles, and although it received rather bad reviews most places, I thought it amusing, interesting, and fun. An immortal – something of a cross between a vampire and werewolf – after having ensured the safety of his people, decides to become a Rock’n’Roll legend! And yet, at the height of his career, those who once persecuted his people – the other immortals – return and he is forced to choose between his life and love, and his people. In the middle, is his brother, who never left the fight to free their people – and the evil, dark-haired immortal female who is all that humans feared in immortals.
Told in bold strokes and dynamic art, with lots of black and white, this is a fast-paced story that jumps between the Dark Ages and Modern Time. The author is German, and so the view of Europe has an authenticity that is pleasing after reading so many attempts by Americans to properly capture that land in writing.
While this isn’t a new or unique story, it is a fun take on an old theme, and quite a perfect read for a dark and storming night. ( )

Suddenly there was a warewolf; no idea where it came from. I'm pretty sure the confusion stems from this being the third, rather than first, book, but it could also be that suddenly there's just a warewolf in the middle of everything. Also? Getting tired of usage of historical figures to make world-building easier. ( )
