it was amazing

During the 90s, I read a LOT of vampire fiction. Good, bad, awful, even some romance. I was preparing for my my thesis on revenant children. There was a lot to read then during, mostly, emo-phase of vampires. People had embraced Louis (from Anne Rice) and ran with him. Vampires were, on average, tortured good souls trapped in a curse. It has taken a long time for vampires to shake off that mantle that Interview with the Vampire provided (and frankly, Louis in Interview gets over it pretty quickly too, but people forget that).

Buffalo Hunter Hunter brings something new to the vampire genre that I have not read before. We see the story of Good Stab a Blackfoot native American vampire as he sits and confesses his sins and the sins of America that he has deemed himself as prosecutor of the guilty. This is the story of a portion of the life of Good Stab. It is a visceral, dark, and, new vision of the vampire. SGJ brings something new here in a genre that has been tired and worn-out for a long time. Every so often you get to read a star of a genre. This is one of them.

Well worth anyone's time who is a fan of revenant fiction.
