Scouse Gothic: The Pool of Life and Death
Scouse Gothic: The Pool of Life and Death | Ian McKinney
1 post | 1 read
Melville wakes with a pounding headache - there had been too many hangovers recently, but this one felt different. What had he been drinking last night? Then he remembered - it was blood. Enter the bizarre world of Scouse Gothic where a reluctant vampire mourns a lost love and his past lives, where a retired 'hit man' plans one more killing and dreams of food, and a mother sets out to avenge her son's murder, and, meanwhile, a grieving husband is visited by an angry angel. Set in present day Liverpool, vampires and mortals co-exist, unaware of each others' secrets and that their past and present are inextricably linked. But as their lives converge, who will be expected to atone for past sins?

I never really look in the local section it Waterstones but after finding this there I am going to look more often. To me, this deserves to be displayed at eye level in every corner of the shop instead of shuffled into the bottom corner to be found by accident. I can't quite find the words to describe how much I enjoyed this. A fast read. A thrilling read. A damn fine read all together.
