Title: Wasn't enthralled.
Product review: I really wanted this book to blow me away. Perhaps it's because I was first exposed to George R. R. Martin through his series "A Song of Ice and Fire" and was entranced entirely by the story and the characters. I suppose I expected the same caliber of work from all of his novels. "Fevre Dream" didn't live up to my expectations, sadly. It had the potential to be a very original and interesting take on classic vampire literature and lore, but I never felt as though the story flowed smoothly, nor did I feel any sort of connection to the characters. The entire book seemed rather flat and one-dimensional, with catalysts that felt forced rather than being natural progessions in the story. All-in-all, I was left feeling let down after finishing this novel, especially after paying $12 for it. I'd say stick with "A Song of Ice and Fire" for your George R. R. Martin needs.
