Because the view of Islam was set during the Crusades, I can forgive the character's assumption that Allah is a different god rather than God the Father (Yahweh or Jehovah). I'm docking a star because I kept wanting to slap some sense into heroine Jordan. The big battle in the de-consecrated church was particularly good. ( ) This book cribs from The Highlander in the way that the last volume of the series pulled from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. At least the rules of vampirism didn't change again. Actually, this third book is quite a bit better than the last, but not as good as the first. It started a little slow and I didn't like the heroine at all. In fact, all the characters seemed very changeable and as though they were acting only in ways that advanced the plot, not ways that would be motivated by their intrinsic natures. Also, one of the chapters seemed as though it was split in the middle and switched around. Other than that, though, the story was pretty entertaining, most of it set in Venice during Carnevale. Drake was able to really bring the celebration to life, and even teach a little Italian. From BackCover: The Hour When Dreams Turn Into Nightmares...
