My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a grown up version and very scientific version of vampires, witches, and demons. A witch and a vampire fall in love. That is not really a good thing according to all the parties involved (and even those not involved). So that's one of the plots of these characters. Another really strong plot is that the witch actually doesn't want to use her powers so that she can say she earned her PhD's the old fashioned way. However, unknowingly she has opened up the super secret book that tells about the history of all the creatures. So now all the creatures want a piece of her. A good book. A long book. And the story leaves you hanging (it's a trilogy), so no looking for a quick answer. And there are also a fair amount of dangling threads that don't seem to get resolved. If you want a grown up witch/vampire love story, then this would be good for you. And it's also a tv show...
