Book Reviews of Blood Angel
Book Review: A new talent to watch
Summary: 4 Stars
This is Justine Musk's first novel. That's the thing I found hardest to believe about this book. Her writing is so tight and clean, her iamges are so clear, her ability to summon music into prose is so distinctive that I would have expected her to a have written a string of novels before "Blood Angel".
Her writing skill is matched by her ability to generate an original fantasy story that is closely plotted and fast paced and yet which still finds time to develop the emotional side of her characters.
The cover art seems to pitch the book as yet another maybe-this-one-will-be-better vampire story. That does it an injustice.
"Blood Angel" is a fresh take on demons and magic, that carries with it a convincing sense of history while being firmly located in the modern alternative sub-culture.
This isn't horror and its not quite science fiction. This is speculative fiction with balls.
Read it with an open mind and a fresh eye and it will take you to new and interesting places
