Drasmyr
By Matthew D Ryan
In a world of wizards and vampires a clever man may make a fortune. But hunting the undead is no small task, as Coragan the bounty hunter will soon find out. He will need all his wits and the help of his comrades to succeed this time. Together, they must pit themselves against a creature so old time itself bends knee, an ancient vampire by the name of Lucian val Drasmyr. Read Drasmyr, a dark fantasy novel by Matthew D. Ryan.

We vampires do not make easy prey. Our weaknesses are few, our strengths many. Fear is something we do not know, and death but a distant memory. So tread softly, pray to your god, and gird yourself with silver when the moons arise and night’s dark prince awakens. We fear not the wizard, nor the warrior, neither rogue, nor priest; our strength is timeless, drawn from darkness and we know no master save the hot lust of our unending hunger. We long for blood, your blood and no blade, nor spell, nor clever artifice, can keep us long from our prize. Feel our teeth at your throat, your life ebb from you, and know as darkness comes to claim you that the price of your folly is your everlasting soul.

My Thoughts: ★★★★★

Let me start by saying I love a good fantasy/paranormal novel, and Drasmyr was no exception. At first, the novel was a little confusing with the back and forth between characters, but I was easily able to adapt and adjust. The plot is strong enough to keep you involved, and mysterious enough to keep you guessing. I truly enjoyed this novel and recommend it to any fan of fantasy/paranormal/vampires. Mr. Ryan’s writing still is refreshing, and he draws you into the characters and the story, and I found it hard to even put this book down. I cannot wait to see what else this talented author has in store for us.
