![]() ![]() ![]() We should really come up with a name for it, since I have a raging case of it.īlood Rights takes place in 2067, where humans have no idea about the supernatural world around them, ruled by vampires, who are serviced by the beautiful and pure-blooded comarré, mortals bred to be bled by vampire nobility. This is exactly why I end up reading mediocre books I’m swayed by a cover and then I don’t want to admit my weakness. But, I thought, perhaps I’m just biased against mainstream supernatural fiction. I was expecting a straight fantasy novel, or, at the very least, a novel set in medieval Europe. But nothing about the summary, which involves courtesans who serve vampires (AWESOME!) and one of those plots that could destroy the entire world, said anything about being supernatural fiction (often wrongly called “urban fantasy”-that would be The Lies of Locke Lamora) set fifty or so years in the future. It’s the work of Spanish artist Nekro, and he just knocked it- as well as the other covers in the series-out of the park. The gold and red over a monochromatic frame and stormy sky, the long hair, the fantastical dress, and, of course, those tattoos. ![]()
