Feb 142011
 

London 1888. Jack the ripper is at large

A Dutch vampyre hunter, Van Diermann, arrives seeking the help of his masonic

brethren to track down a vampyre that threatens their order.

By a twist of fate the vampyre escapes leaving Van Diermann cursed with the same
blood lust. The hunter has become the hunted.

Over 100 years later a ships log is found by a fisherman, Jim Mulligan. Its sale at
a London auction unleashes a series of events that drag the unwitting fisherman into
a world of vampyres, vampyre hunters and secret societies.

At a monastery in cornwall all the monks are viciously slain. Nearby a courting
couple are slaughtered. An aging secret service agent is re activated, teaming up
with a nerdy accountant they leave a trail of destruction in their wake.

A mysterious billionaire arrives at a small fishing village in the west of Ireland
in search of a mysterious treasure. They accidentally revive an ancient evil and is
unleashed to a modern world that the vampyre is not quite prepared for.

Mulligans wife is missing presumably taken by the vampyre. Swept along by events, he
joins an unlikely team each with their own motive for finding the vampyre. In a
chase that traverses the atlantic, allegiances are sworn and betrayed, culminating
in a conflict that exposes the heretical truth that will affect us all.

THE PUMPKIN SEED

Jul 032010
 

Bookcover Designed by Sue Midliak

 

The Pumpkin Seed by Timothy C. Hobbs $2.99

“I am a drinker of human blood and an eater of human flesh, a monster dressed in the skin of a man.” So states Charles, the main character of the novel, after being infected with a virus transmitted by an insect vector.

The Pumpkin Seed opens in India near the Nepal border in the late 17th century. A commissioned officer of the East India Company is seeking a profitable new trade route into China. Indian bandits of the Thuggie clan attempt to stop this further invasion by the British and release a plague of insects, which carry a unique virus. This organism not only infects humans, it transforms the chemical and physical nature of the host’s body. Longevity, resilience and the need to feed on human blood and flesh make the host an efficient killing machine, especially in regard to the human race. The novel follows the characters through 17th and 18th century England and India, culminating in present day Austin, Texas.

Set in the orphanages of London and in the vile body snatching trade, a host of characters, who are as despicable as their deeds, search for the truth and a cure for their malady.

The Pumpkin Seed takes us through the vices of greed, hate, love and despair and creates a modern novel that puts colonialism in the spot light and asks difficult questions about this generation’s guilt for the crimes of its ancestors. This novel is a classic vampire tale with a twist, told beautifully from the point of view of the vampire.

Swan Song Artwork by Jevron Mc Crory copy

E-book Description

Katrina Collins isn’t like other musicians.   She doesn’t grant interviews. She doesn’t pander to the press.  No one has ever seen her outside of her musical arena. Her manner is brief, her beauty startling and her effect upon an audience mesmerising.

Lewis Morrison isn’t like other music journalists.  He despises music. He loathes musicians. No one can stand to be in his company for more than a few moments.  Katrina and Lewis are both damaged.

In the  seedy underbelly of Camden, a unique North London habitat, they will find  each other and their discovery will bring hope, redemption, pain, pleasure and death.   This is Swan Song and it is unlike any other vampire story you have ever read.

E-book DescriptionRelease by Nicola Hadaway

“Forever.” That’s the response Ben Gongliewski receives, when he asks Miranda Dandridge how long she’s been a vampire. He doesn’t expect the word “forever” in her reply, but then again, Ben never imagined meeting vampires, let alone demons and werewolves, during his time in the Polish Resistance during World War II. Far from being horrified, Ben discovers that Miranda and her friends have very useful … talents … especially when it comes to saving children from concentration camps. After all, in these desperate times, while the line between good and evil is clear, the one between heroes and monsters is very, very blurred.

The last thing Miranda wants at this point in her immortal life is a human lover, but as she and Ben perform rescue after daring rescue, she can’t help but be drawn to his passion to save his fellow Jews. As the War draws to a close Miranda must choose her love for Ben or her duty to her race. Ben is blindsided by a betrayal that no one sees coming, which leads to a danger where all hell is about to break loose … literally.

Compelling story of magic and intrigue. The author did not cut any corners when it came to researching her story. Well worth your time.

Review by: Rachel Lynne on Jan. 27, 2011 : star star star star star
Please do yourself a favor and pick up this book. The setting and period details are amazing, the prose is elegant, and the heroine, vampire Miranda Dandridge, is classy and complex; the most unusual vampire I think I’ve ever encountered in a novel. “Hey Hollywood, this would make a great movie!”
