About this ebook
"Packs more of an emotional wallop than any verbose gore-fest served up by less imaginative talents." — San Francisco Chronicle
Born over a century ago, Agyar was once a frivolous young man, before he found unwanted immortality in a woman's blood-red lips. Now he goes from woman to woman, and decade to decade, finding himself at last in a Midwestern college town, where he must choose between the seductions of salvation—and of destruction.
"Compact, understated, and highly persuasive. Brust accomplishes with a wry turn of phrase or a small flourish what others never achieve despite hundreds of gory spatters." ― Kirkus Reviews
"A marvelous fantasy. . . . Brust is a master stylist who creates such intricate characters that plot is almost irrelevant." — Publishers Weekly
