I must have misread the blurb. Abraham Lincoln turned out to be Abraham Van Helsing. The Nazi's were really a British secret agency. And Victorian England lasted for 8 pages. I got Frankenstein right. A cautionary tale about impulse purchases.

Anyway, this was ok. It does take some suspension of belief to get through it. Very unrealistic for a secret government agency and its procedures. Book contains considerable violence consisting of people getting hacked to pieces. Blood fest extraordinaire. The usual YA love interest. Mystery and suspense tossed in too. This may just be enough to continue the series, if I run across a heavy discount. Rated C- [2 stars].

Next TBD but will be a recent pick-up.
