Review: Gas! The Battle for Ypres, 1915

Gas! The Battle for Ypres, 1915 by J.L. McWilliams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The author tells the story of the second battle of Yrpes though eyewitness accounts, war diaries, reports etc. The reader is given a highly detailed account of the battle, which includes the first use of poison gas as a weapon we learn of the confusion over orders, the misunderstandings that arose and of heroism in the trenches.

I find the book to be a sad but excellent and a fascinating insight into the events into the second battle of Yrpes

Highly recommended.

Review: Sangre: The Wrong Side of Tomorrow

Sangre: The Wrong Side of Tomorrow by Carlos Colon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Having not read the first in the series I did't know anthing about the character or what to expect from the story. But this did't affect my enjoyment of reading the book,so dont worry if you pick this book up to read without having read the first one it is still a very enjoyable read.

So who is Nicky Negron,well he's dead and has been for 30 years after being turned into a vampire but we lean that he has a genetic resistance to stop him completely changing into a monster, this appears to help him keep his humanity but he still needs blood to survive. You will learn more about this thoughout the book so no spoliers from me.

The storyline alternates between Nicky's hunt for the beast that turned him which leads him teaming up with a very odd character who's main aim appers to be trying to kill him at every opportunity. And glimpses of his childhood, the people who touched his life and the events that made him who he is.

Overall it has some great twists and funny monments recommended for horror fans and theses how love a good vampire story.
