 It was a great but slow experience for me.. In the story of Phury, you'd read about all of them - even the forgotten ones, namely Tohr - but not Phury. He was missing in action, even though the struggle he'd done against the wizard was remarkable. So much had happened inside this book, which - in my opinion - had shadowed the original story of our beloved vampire. Still a great masterpiece by the great J.R. Ward :)
