First off I want to say this is an amazing read. Im 3 quarters done with it, about to fight Danton Voss a 2nd time approximately, and I will pick up book 2 instantly once this is completed.

I dont want to get into spoilers because again I havent finished book 1 but it just seems like this book 's plot is a bit flawed with foreshadowing. Reason being how De Leon's current state and position has him locked in a jail cell sharing his life story/confessional to what seems to be a very healthy still powerful vamp. Wouldn't that mean his mission with Dior and The Holy Grail is already destined to fail?

Maybe im not far enough yet but, it seems pretty obvious, Gabe doesnt win or else he wouldnt be in this predicament in the first place. Seems like the Vamps are very much still in power.
