The book is about an alternative universe where Vampires are real. They signed a treaty with humans, so that they would only eat the homeless and stop eating children.
But invariably the treaty is broken when the ruling Vampire Lord Harbinger, is overthrown.
So the children of Storm Hill whose parents are servants to the vampires, and the poor kids of the Cauldron must unite to stop them.
I can't say I enjoyed this book. It spent too long explaining things, which at times were unnecessary, or could've been explained elsewhere.
At times it felt rushed and parts felt out of place, and there were moments that needed more context, such as a character suddenly changing sides.
There were some great parts, such as the Storm Hill kids, and the V and V game. I did love Michael and his family, and would've liked more written about them.

I love books with a creepy gothic vibe and this had everything I look for in a vampire read. It was dark, chilling and gothic I couldnt put it down

Thank you Matador, NetGalley and Author for this advance ebook copy in return for an honest review!

Vampires and Victims by Martin was such an interesting story!
And one I enjoyed way too much! I love a good Sci-fi story!
My only thing I wished it was more horror, but it was still an amazing read!
The characters are complex and wonderful. The whole atmosphere of the book was great! I love every little thing about the book....
The flow of the story was continuous and I truly did not want to put this down as it was an addicting read.

Thanks again NetGalley, Publisher and Author for the chance to read and review this amazing book!
I'll post to my Social media platforms closer to pub date!

Thanks, NetGalley and Publisher for the opportunity to read and review!
The book was a nice read as a whole. It's been a while since I've read a story with children being the main characters, Charlie, in particular, being the protag. But one of the good things about the story is that it does not focus on the protag in particular, but includes a group of very interesting characters. The takes its time at the beginning where the author slowly builds the story of vampires and humans as well as introducing the main cast of characters. May be this is where it might feel somehow slow until the plot starts moving. But after that comes the interesting part.. The story begins moving forward with a lot of suspence and mystery and even though vampires are essential part of it, the descriptions aren't filled with blood and gore, as most are used to, when it comes to vampire stories. Definitely a fun read!
