Hunting Prince Dracula by Kerri Maniscalco

Again, how? In 1880-ish Romania, such a trip with a carriage was supposed to be at least a week long. Trust me, I lived there for three years, haven’t seen a hint of mountain.Īnother super confusing thing for me – Audrey Rose and Thomas were planning on taking a carriage from Bucharest to the Bran Castle (which btw has nothing to do with Dracula but I will just let the rumour fly around anyway) after the Orient Express arrived at its destination. Not to be rude or offend my friends from Bucharest (hello there, frumoșilor 👋), but people there have no idea how a snow-capped mountain is supposed to look like as seen from the window of their flat. They were talking about Bucharest and the snow-capped Carpathian Mountains in the same sentence and just try to imagine my confusion because, let me tell you, Bucharest is nowhere near any mountain.

I kind of got lost at some point while reading this… Because this book’s action was supposed to be set so close to where I actually live in Romania, I kind of know the geography of the place. I didn’t know exactly how to grasp the general atmosphere of the book from the first few chapters. Now, moving to the actual review, I have to say it: I didn’t really like this (because I am biased af), but it wasn’t entirely that bad. I still haven’t discovered my fangs though, but now if I think on it I might have put them into a glass of water somewhere in my mountain castle and forgot about them.

Two other un-named titles will also be set within the KOTW world and will follow two different princes.įor more information, visit Kerri online:įull review on my Blog: The Dacian She-Wolf 🐺ĩ9% sure I’m not a vampire, but some of y’all seem to believe that everyone in Romania is from Transylvania and we all have fangs and hate garlic with a passion so you make me question my initial statement with your fairytale determination. She is the #1 NYT and USA Today bestselling author of the STALKING JACK THE RIPPER quartet, the KINGDOM OF THE WICKED trilogy, and her forthcoming adult debut, THRONE OF THE FALLEN, set within the KINGDOM OF THE WICKED universe. In her spare time she reads everything she can get her hands on, cooks all kinds of food with her family and friends, and drinks entirely too much tea while discussing life’s finer points with her cats. Kerri Maniscalco grew up in a semi-haunted house outside NYC where her fascination with gothic settings began. And I've also been known to share snippets and teasers from my upcoming novels, if you're into that sort of thing.) Please feel free to chat with me there I love talking with fellow readers! I'm mostly on instagram-where I'm always ready to talk fictional crushes and nerd out over books.
