George R.R. Martin

My next choice of book to read was one of George R. R. Martin‘s stand-alone novels written back in 1982.  I have loved his Game of Thrones books, but haven’t ever read anything else by him.  So when I saw this book recently, I decided to pick it up:

Fevre Dream, by George R.R. Martin

What initially grabbed my interest about this book is when I read on the back cover that it was a cross between Mark Twain and Stephen King.  Now, that’s one I’ve never seen (or thought of) before!

This was a really good story – life on the Mississippi in the 19th Century …and VAMPIRES.  It was a unique tale and I am only sad that I went through it so fast; I finished it in about 4 days.
