Few Can Feast on Freedom. Once New England led the fight for freedom. Once it thought it could set its own destiny and determine its own future. Once its leaders were its own, children of its rocky soil. Even the land's vampires once believed this. But no more. When the Damned Feast on Death Schemes plotted thousands of miles away, born of the conflicts millennia old, have forever changed the land. Native Kindred are beset by enemies on all sides, and only the strongest carry on the fight of freedom. Only the bravest can hope to survive. The weak and the cowards die one by one in their dens. Dark Colony includes:
* information about the entire New England region, including the most important and powerful vampires and their schemes; * an inside look at some of the international plots affecting Kindred around the world; and * a complete story sending the characters on a mad quest to discover a vampire's terrifying past.
John Cooper is an author whose storytelling is shaped by nearly fifty years spent designing and building vehicles around the world. Now living in sunny Florida, he brings the same curiosity, precision, and craftsmanship that defined his engineering career to his fiction.
His debut novel, A Yorkshire Funeral, draws on his Yorkshire roots and a deep understanding of people, place, and character. His second novel, Recharge, is inspired by his extensive experience in vehicle design, development, and management.
When he is not writing, John restores Triumph motorcycles and Jaguar E-Type cars, sharing his projects with fellow enthusiasts on his YouTube channel.
No quiero desvelar nada que no deba, así que: me acerqué esperando un producto de calidad media-baja, como muchos de los que White Wolf sacó en aquella época, cuando Vampiro era aún una cosa nueva y sorprendente. Era más curiosidad y completismo histórico.
Me equivoqué. Este libro da, en pocas páginas (la mitad es una aventura bastante buena) una montaña de información y, además, te enseña a montar una campaña ambiciosa más allá de la ciudad donde viven tus personajes. Un elenco de bichos raros y originales hacen de la lectura algo aún más ameno.
Aunque no sea imprescindible, por lo que no tiene 5*, sí sorprende con su originalidad, e hizo que me entraran ganas de empezar a jugarlo al momento. Muy muy recomendable.
