Zero problem. I have read the ancient greeks. They don't hold back on the darker side of human existence. Briggs is a delight - I strongly recommend her website where she discusses the practical side of making silver bullets. Turns out that this task is a LOT more complex than most fiction authors would have you believe. The economics are also atrocious. Vampire/werewolf hunting in 20/21 century is a VERY expensive business.
Economics! I'm sending you a rec for Chris Wooding, and dinner ๐บ
Many blessings upon your house and all that live therein!
