Agyar by Steven Brust

Strange from a couple of standpoints.
1. I am not used to the 1st person style of storytelling. It took some getting used to but in the end allowed a more in depth insight into the mind of the protagonist.
2. Yes...it is a vampire book but not like any I had read before. Little to know gore. It alluded to it but then backed off just when you would think, "here we go"!
3. Romance....I am not much on the gushy, in your face kind of romance. This was different. Love is only actually mentioned rarely.
Overall...I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to others for addition to their vampire collection.
