Review:
Hundreds of years in the future, climate change has created an ice age and the human population struggles to survive. Vampires, easily able to survive the harsh conditions have risen from the shadows to turn some humans and use the rest as a source for blood. Now, the human population is dwindling and vampires are facing a blood shortage. Josie, daughter or Ezra, the leader of the Western International Nation is sent on a mission to secure human donors. On Josie's team are Killian the Killer and Vin, Josie's ex-boyfriend. Among her team's personal problems, it seems that they have been set up as soon as they reach the old base camp. Josie and Vin are separated from Killilan and they are left to discover another dangerous faction of vampires that holds secrets to Vin's past and Ezra's plans for the future of vampires and humans alike. With no choice but to revolt against her father, Josie plans a revolution with Vin, Killian and new friend, Natasha at her side.
In Blood & Ice is a unique vampire story with the intriguing incorporation of climate change that brought vampires to power. There was a lot to explain in this book and it was managed without a huge info dump, although the pacing did slow down a bit in the middle. I was interested in the differences between born vampires, created vampires and Rogues as well as how vampires managed to reproduce. The politics of the vampire world seem complex as well as their relationship and necessary balance needed with humans. This tangled web was a large plot point of the book and eventually unravelled as Josie, Vin, Killian and Natasha tease out the trail of secrets, lies and deceptions that have been built up. What they find is only the beginning however as the women in the group find that their bodies have been experiments for Ezra as well. I enjoyed all the main characters, especially Josie and Natasha who were strong women, not only physically but mentally as they overcame multiple challenges, were able to reevaluate their preconceived notions, forgive and trust in one another. With vampire wars, romance, mystery and secrets, In Blood & Ice is an entertaining paranormal read.
This book was received for free in return for an honest review.
