Status Updates From White Wolf (Sons of Rome, #1)

never in any fiction or nonfiction works has Rasputin been deemed in any way a good person, some sort of savior. And clearly that’s the direction this will go…

a lot to keep track of, but I’m tracking despite skimming

well, I got past the sample. A lot going on. Lots of foundation laying… let’s get to the meat please!

An interesting blend of PNR/Roman mythology/Russian history

No, not the wolves....

Why is there an introduction and three prologues to this book? Like, let’s just start the damn story already.

“I’m a vampire.” A slow, creeping numbness began to overtake him.
“Yes.”
The wind sighed through the trees, spattering the trunks with snowflakes. Overhead, the ravens cackled to themselves.
Two monsters studied one another, and for them, the war was over.

Amazing! First Vikings, now Creatures of the night.
Gilley knows how to deliver👏🏼

“They’re all fools, the old man is a pompous windbag out of his depth, and the beast you’re setting off to wake is just that – a beast.Communism,the empire, the war, none of that matters. This is about one thing:power. Everyone craves it, and only a few can hold it.It’s the one lasting tenant of this world that survives century after century: the craving and pursuit of power”

Oh, is wasn’t so simple, then

Sasha and Nikita 😏😏😏

So many characters! All of them interesting! 😱

“This is a war story.
Like all war stories, it is a story about men…and monsters.
Sometimes, the monsters come down on the side of the angels.
Tread carefully, dear reader.”

I don’t know what this will be about, so far there are great characters none of them the MCs I think, lots of time lines? Talk of Rasputin?
I like it 🤔☺️

I’ve got this waiting for two months.
Do your magic, Mistress Gilley 🤞🏼☺️

I hope this story picks up, soon, because I am positively bored, right now.
