Title: Not nearly as good as I'd hoped.
Product review: I found "Daughter of the Blood" to be disapointing. The writing itself wasn't bad, but just about everything else was. The characters, despite being in a completely different world, borrow very heavily from the Mythologies of this world. Many of the characters seemed basic and contrived. The society of "The blood" is hedonistic to the point of revolting.It takes a lot more than having a people worship "darkness" to make a dark fantasy. And it takes a lot more than people having sex (often sadistic, incestuous, demented. I can't think of a single character that had an honest to goodness HEALTHY relationship in the entire book) to make a book erotic.I couldn't feel good about this book. Reading it became a chore and the ending left me disapointed.
