The God of Endings

"Zombies, haunted houses and vampires are a few horror tropes that must feel entirely new and unique in order to work, and that’s exactly what Jacqueline Holland pulls off here. Sure, this is a vampire novel, but it’s also much more than that. Gorgeously written even when it gets dark and violent and epic in terms of breadth, scope and the years it covers, The God of Endings follows one woman’s journey for two centuries, while also exploring the transformative power of art, the effects of solitude, the power of love and the beauty of brevity."
