Lucy is sick of the patriarcy and the rich, and goes off on them, only to discover they are all vampires.

From that moment on, she decides to either fight them or join them, or both. She joins Lord Byron, from the books, as the says, as well as Sham, a transgender character who may be in love with Lucy, and other people who show up along the way.

It is all confusing, but fun.

Oh, and there is a talking castle. And a psychic eagle. And both are sometimes helpful, and sometimes not.

This all takes place, as the book says, in the late Regency era.

Does it all make sense. Not really, but it is definitely fun.



Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

Thank you, NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read this comic.

DNF page 120

I instantly downloaded this after reading "a trio of queer misfits", the story sounded right up my street and I actively seek out books with LGBTQ+ characters, however, this one didn't work for me, unfortunately.

The storyline was wacky, weird and humourous, which I normally love, but I just didn't connect to this one. I can see why people would love this though!

The main reason I am DNF'ing is because of the way the LGBTQ+ rep was portrayed. Others might view it as good, which is absolutely fine! We all view stuff differently at the end of the day. But for me personally, the rep was not handled right, especially in regards to Sham. But for all I know, my problems might be resolved by the end.

Overall, I am very glad I had the opportunity to read this comic and I would definitely recommend trying it out if it sounds like something you would enjoy, unfortunately, it just wasn't for me.

This was a delight. The artwork was fun, the text was AMAZING - so many one liners and panels that were done splendidly and I want to use as reactions. I loved how queer it was and how willing to poke fun it was. I cannot wait to get a finished copy for my collection.
