Summary: Victorian Ending
Comment: This book was a great ending to the trilogy that was Victorian Age Vampire. I could not put these books down, least of all this one, and I was so sad to see it all end.
Rating: 5
Summary: Superb wrap up of the series.
Comment: When I finish a good book I sigh, think about it, and look forward to the next one by that author. However, when I finish a trilogy, knowing that I have reached the end of a journey never to be taken for the first time again, I miss the book that will never be. So, about halfway through I start reading slower, even when I am entranced -- to make the journey last as long as possible.
The Wounded King by Philippe Boulle is the final in The Victorian Age of Vampires. I don't want the series to end. I know the people, for they are not just characters to me. I want to continue to peek in on their lives, or half-life of a vampire. I want the sensational trip to continue.
Philippe Boulle is not just the writer, but he is an editor and publisher at White Wolf Publishing. The books he publishes have never compromised his ethics. Each is a unique trip. He is, however, my favorite writer for White Wolf. I want more novels about these amazing people: some I love, some I understand while some I do not, and some I dislike. Each emotion tells me that my life has changed in knowing them.
I followed Lady Regina Blake, the heroine, beginning with The Morbid Initiation, through The Madness of Priests and into the conclusion and wrap up in The Wounded King. My reviews of his first two novels are also available here.
This series is a "coming of age" of a young Victoria Lady whose mother just happens to be the vessel for the return of ancient power. Regina loves, years for more, suffers the loss of her family and lovers, and disappears into London's night society. She journeys through a daylight into darkness world with Victoria Ash, her protector.
The power of Boulle's writing is this: believability is interwoven in the plot, characters, actions, and consistency of the series. I cannot recommend this book without the first two -- and I found this is a trip worth taking. Those who love vampire fiction will be satiated, history buffs will see the details of each scene and set the time and place by them. This is a good time for all.
I give it five stars.

Summary: Vampires as the should be
Comment: Anything done by white-wolf publishing is an amazing foray into the darkest parts of the human mind. They tell stories, not just write books. (there is a difference) and it is a unique spin on the traditional tales of Vampires. If you think you know Vampires...think again. Foget evreything you know.
