Long ago, mankind was cast out of Eden. Now, a cadre of dark beings wants to claim it for the demonic forces and they need Eve, the mother of all mankind and of all vampires, to do so. She is part of a group known as the Menagerie. Lead by Arthur Conan Doyle, this diverse band of magical beings commands formidable powers, but will that be enough to keep the Fallen Angels out of paradise?

I regret that this was my first book in the series. It was completely fascinating in the way it portrayed both historical and fanciful figures. The relationship between the characters combined with provoking action made this a book hard to put down and definitely made me want to read more by these men.

Synopsis
The Legion of Doom is hell-bent on breaking into Eden, and they've got the perfect captive to help them: Eve, mother of all humanity-and all vampires. Only Doyle and the Menagerie can stop them from turning a blessed garden into a paradise lost.
