So i got 23% into this book and i simply cannot take another page of this.
Stupid, alcoholic, smoking, crap eating, sad, miserable idiot getting chased by lots of vampires. Woohoo! Yes folks, another dull and boring vampire story, only difference from the norm is that this one is post-apocalyptic as the vampires have wiped out all humans apart from this one pathetic, sad alcoholic.
Seriously, if you had the daylight hours of every day to do whatever you want, go wherever you want, you have the whole world and its contents at your disposal before the vampires came out at night to hunt and all you could think to do was live like this sad twat because you’re a pathetic, miserable alcoholic, then you may as well just throw yourself into the vampire’s grasp and get it over with. Stop torturing yourself, and most of all, stop torturing us poor readers who have large “To Read” piles to get through.
I have no idea about the rest of the book, but the first quarter of it has no sci-fi whatsoever in it. How this has managed to get itself into “SF Masterworks” is quite beyond me. I suppose there always has to be the bottom of pile, hopefully this is it because i’m going to despair if there are any worse books than this in the series.
