2019 #11: Time's Convert (Harkness)

Time's ConvertTime's Convert by Deborah Harkness
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was disappointing in some respects. It fills in some of the lore and we do get a better sense of what it is to be a vampire. The backstory for Marcus is well done, and Harkness is at her strongest when she's writing historical fiction. After a trilogy centered around Diana and Matthew, their presence in this book seemed superfluous--as if the author felt those characters had to be there. I would have preferred a sequel that waited a bit longer, delved more into the development of the twins OR gave us Marcus/Phoebe's story--trying to do both here didn't work for me.
