Before I cracked open Grave Fortune, Nancy (the author) informed me this story would be the first in a series currently in the works. So, I went in expecting a lot of information thrown at me because most authors do this with the first novel. Nancy did deliver a lot of action, mystery, bloodshed, and heartfelt moments. However, she also left a lot of unanswered questions.
1.) Who created V-Guard? What’s in it that causing humans to smell unappealing to vampires?
2.) Why does the law protect vampires?
3.) Why did Alex leave the Army?
4.) Why are Dana’s powers unlike another seen by another vampire?
5.) What’s Joseph’s story? Maggie’s?
As much as I loved the creativity in the story/plot, I would’ve liked more background information. Small nuggets into characters’ pasts help readers connect to their futures. With the next installments in the series, I hope Nancy does some flashbacks.
This series has enormous potential, and I can’t wait to discover the depths of Dana’s powers.
