The Last Vampire: Book Four
Author: R. A. Steffan
Publisher: OtherLove Publishing, LLC
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 187
Book Description
Allies are turning into enemies. I have enough enemies already, thanks. So… yesterday was Hell. Literally. Now, I find myself asking how a day could be that terrible, while also being the most amazing day of my life. When I fled my safe haven in the demon realm to deliver news of betrayal and conspiracy to Rans, I thought it meant I was losing everything. Again. Instead, I've just gained the most valuable gift I could ever receive. I'm hopelessly in love with the last vampire on Earth. That's hardly a news flash at this point. But I never expected my feelings to be returned… and I've never been happier to be wrong. Now he's mine, and I am his. Our lives are bound inextricably, even unto death. Of course, at this rate it just might come to that. The demon we thought was our most powerful ally has been using Rans for his own ends. And he's been doing so for centuries. Until now, I thought Rans and I were on one side of a war between the demons and the Fae. Turns out we're standing squarely in the middle of the battlefield, and both armies are shooting at us. When both sides are in the wrong, who do you stand with? Maybe the answer is obvious. I stand with Rans, and he stands with me. The last vampire, and the first demon-Fae-human hybrid. Together against the world. * * * The Last Vampire is a steamy urban fantasy romance series from USA Today Bestseller R. A. Steffan and Jaelynn Woolf, co-authors of the Circle of Blood saga. Download Book Four today, and enter a world shared by humans, fae, demons, and one very reluctant vampire. It's a place where the supernatural threatens the mundane, nothing is as it seems, and love will either be the world's downfall—or its salvation.

The Vampire Almanac
Author: J. Gordon Melton
Publisher: Visible Ink Press
ISBN: 1578597544
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1324
Book Description
Grab a stake, a fistful of garlic, a crucifix and holy water as you enter the dark, blood-curdling world of the original pain in the neck in this ultimate collection of vampire facts, fangs, and fiction! What accounts for the undying fascination people have for vampires? How did encounters with death create centuries-old myths and folklore in virtually every culture in the world? When did the early literary vampires—as pictured by Goethe, Coleridge, Shelly, Polidori, Byron, and Nodier as the personifications of man’s darker side—transform from villains into today’s cultural rebels? Showing how vampire-like creatures organically formed in virtually every part of the world, The Vampire Almanac: The Complete History by renowned religion expert and fearless vampire authority J. Gordon Melton, Ph.D., examines the historic, societal, and psychological role the vampire has played—and continues to play—in understanding death, man’s deepest desires, and human pathologies. It analyzes humanity’s lusts, fears, and longing for power and the forbidden! Today, the vampire serves as a powerful symbol for the darker parts of the human condition, touching on death, immortality, forbidden sexuality, sexual power and surrender, intimacy, alienation, rebellion, violence, and a fascination with the mysterious. The vampire is often portrayed as a symbolic leader advocating an outrageous alternative to the demands of conformity. Vampires can also be tools for scapegoating such as when women are called “vamps” and bosses are described as “bloodsuckers.” Meet all of the villains, anti-heroes, and heroes of myths, legends, books, films, and television series across cultures and today’s pop culture in The Vampire Almanac. It assembles and analyzes hundreds of vampiric characters, people, and creatures, including Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Vlad the Impaler, Edward Cullen and The Twilight Saga, Bram Stoker, Lestat De Lioncourt and The Vampire Chronicles, Lon Chaney, True Blood, Bela Lugosi, Dracula, Dark Shadows, Lilith, Vampire Weekend, Batman, Nosferatu, and so many more. There is a lot to sink your teeth into with this deep exhumation of the undead. Quench your thirst for facts, histories, biographies, definitions, analysis, immortality, and more! This gruesomely thorough book of vampire facts also has a helpful bibliography, an extensive index, and numerous photos, adding to its usefulness.
