Advantages: Knowlegde of the islands before booking
Disadvantages: none

...One of the most beautiful books to read and look at..... I had previously done a review on the 2nd edition book, but being new to ciao then, I put it in the wrong category.

After all, he has no-one to talk to, and no matter how many vampires he kills, he has no real prospect of stopping the plague. All he can do is live - and is it even worth staying alive in a world where the dead walk? That and other questions are addressed in this deeply compelling... Read review
