Summary:
Nick Knight is a 800 year old vampire who is a homicide
detective on the night shift in Toronto.
Nick is constantly searching for his way back to mortality. He has come across
a strange doll that was given to him by a mysterious woman. She says the doll will grant him is heart’s
desire. Nick ends up having a series of dreams that leave him baffled. In the dreams he is a mortal, while everyone
else in the police department are vampires, even his dear friend Dr. Natalie
Lambert is a vampire and she wants to be the one to bring him over. Even more surprisingly, LaCroix is a mortal
as well and a leader of an underground group of humans who are fighting their
morality.
Nick can’t tell what is real and what the dream is
anymore. What is the price he is willing
to pay to be human once again?
My Thoughts:
I truly enjoyed this book.
I believe it to be the best out of the Forever Knight books. It had just the right amount of fantasy to
keep my attention. I love how Susan M.
Garrett used the subject of dreams as the main plot. Dreaming is something everyone can relate
to. Everyone dreams even if they do not
recall their dreams. (That is if they get the proper amount of sleep.) Intimations of Morality gives us an insight
of what if Nick’s reality was inversed.
The character of LaCroix was kept true to himself. Even as a human, he will still sacrifice
anyone for his cause.
I gave Forever Knight: Intimations of Morality four stars
and a grade of B because I really liked it. Garrett is a fantastic storyteller
and is quite sad that we will not be seeing anymore of her work. I had just found out recently she passed away
from cancer so unless she has many unpublished writers her family has yet to
get published for her, her talent for storytelling is lost to us, the
reader. If you enjoyed the TV show
Forever Knight or just like stories of vampires, I recommend reading Intimations
of Mortality, the second book in a line of three books that was written based
on the TV series.
