Judge Dee was a name that gave monsters nightmares. I mean how can Jonathan even think of anything else besides food then?
Jonathan isn't too keen on it as he gets scared of the other vampires and it also doesn't help that he hasn't had anything to eat that day. They are supposed to travel with seven other vampires to London. Judge Dee and Jonathan are back and this time they are fleeing from Paris as the city is on fire. luckily, judge dee is there, along with jonathan-who's side-eyeing that bone, hoping to gnaw at whatever juicy meat remains-and these vampire-murderrrs will not go unvanquished, and the case is solved in a tidy and unexpected resolution.Īnother clever and delightful story featuring this oddball pair, reaffirming my desire for MORE OF THEM, putting my wish once more into the universe for a physical collection of these stories to exist, and soon.Ī vampire judge did not just pass a sentence, after all – he also carried out the punishment. however, nothing's ever really safe when cranky vampires with grudges are gathered up under cover of night, and immortality's no obstacle to a vampire with a bone to pick. this is the fourth (#2 - Judge Dee and the Three Deaths of Count Werdenfels, #3 - Judge Dee and the Poisoner of Montmartre, because i like to make things easy for y'all), and it's a sort of fang'ed version of And Then There Were None, where a group of vampires (and poor human-companion jonathan) are forced by circumstances to travel together.for safety. These judge dee stories keep getting better and better, and the bar was already set pretty high with the first one, Judge Dee and the Limits of the Law. i hate that i fall into a shame-spiral any time i fail to accomplish some stupid self-appointed goal or other, but i do, and now it's time to pull myself out! i didn't read ANY in february or march, and i haven't even reviewed two of the ones i read in january. Oof, for the first time since 2014, i have fallen off the pony of reading one tor short a week. The worst was inevitably what happened when you were in the company of vampires. Judge Dee materialised out of the air and stood beside the fire.
