Review "Dixen never lets the nail-biting plot overwhelm his nuanced characterizations, and heightens the stakes by making it clear that any character could die at any time. Series fans will not be disappointed." —Publishers Weekly"A simply riveting read from start to finish, Victor Dixen has added a whole new dimension to the vampire genre. A fun read for fantasy fans in general, and vampire fiction fans in particular, The Court of Miracles is unreservedly recommended…" —Midwest Book Review"Dixen, a master of fantasy, has crafted a spectacular, credible world, which reveals the sinister truths beneath. The story is darkly grotesque and suitably inhabited by a terrifying cast but is immersive in its impeccable detail and the wider universality of Dixens message." —Historical Novels Review Details ISBN1662505728 Author Françoise Bui Publisher Amazon Publishing Series Vampyria Saga Year 2024 ISBN-13 9781662505720 Format Paperback Imprint AmazonCrossing Place of Publication Seattle Country of Publication United States AU Release Date 2024-07-09 NZ Release Date 2024-07-09 UK Release Date 2024-07-09 Translator Françoise Bui Series Number 2 Audience General Alternative 9781662505737 Pages 396 Publication Date 2024-06-25 US Release Date 2024-06-25 ISBN-10 1662505728 DEWEY 843.92 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
