Vampires, Murder and Mayhem in Victorian England.

Arthur Tudor has made his existence as a vampire bearable for over three hundred years by immersing himself in blood and debauchery. Aboard an airship gala, he meets Avalon, an aspiring vampire slayer who sparks fire into Arthur's shriveled heart. Together they try to solve the mystery of several horrendous murders on the dark streets of London. Cultures clash and pressures rise in this very steamy tale.

Adding to the Otherworldly Bookbox: Round II.

This book rode to the end of the Otherworldly Bookbox. I was excited to see this, as I saw O.M. Grey speak at The Steampunk World's Fair a couple years ago about her writing process and how she goes about creating her fantasy worlds and characters.

This was a fun book. Paranormal romance isn't usually my genre, and I rolled my eyes at some of the tropes in here, but I enjoyed the characters and the misdirection-laden plot. I think the author did a good job of balancing presenting a vampire who is both our viewpoint character and not a very nice guy. His affected, pretentious, and self-centered tendencies actually worked well for the overwrought writing style and helped make his blind spots convincing. The steampunk elements were more pretty trappings than plot-related, but I found all their "modern" vampire hunting gear fun.
