What are people's takes on the vampires in Blindsight?
Post Body

So I'm about halfway through Blindsight, and I'm loving the themes and the atmosphere so far, excited to keep reading, but I feel like the vampires are a little out of place. I kinda feel like the "Transhumanist Sci-fi Vampire" book and the "Bleak Sci-Fi Existential Horror About Consciousness" both could and should be seperate books, and it kinda seems like two unrelated stories attached to each other for no real reason. Even though in universe there's a scientific explanation for their existence, It kinda takes me out of it a little bit when someone's rhapsodizing about philosophy of mind and then I remember that fucking Dracula's hanging out in the corner. Anybody feel the same way?
