OH. MY. GOD!
As with Volume 1, the first few pages are actually a future-flashforward, SEVEN YEARS!
I really thought the whole immortal blood-sucker thing was vampires, but it's NOT! These guys are some kind of shifter, though it's not fully explored (though I have seen a glimpse of Vol 3 online that hints at exploring that aspect in the next volume)
I almost don't know what to say...I'm speechless and desperate for the next two volumes.
The ending was SO sudden and dramatic! It ends on a cliffhanger, but that just makes me desperate to read the next two NOW!
"Bats roost under our roof" - Ugh, this was SO painful and beautiful and bittersweet and devastating!
Why did no one warn me about this series? Why didn't anyone tell me NOT to touch it until it was finished?
