As he did with his "Cave and the Vamp" series of supernatural thrillers (available from Vampires2 Publishing), C. C. Blake once again tackles vampire fiction and injects the genre with new doses of adrenaline and imagination. In "Bloody Business," a sexy vampire with a vendetta against organized crime meets a gangster in the wrong place at the wrong time. Their encounter triggers a shooting war in the streets, and a pair of cops are caught in the crossfire. Will anyone make it out with their skin intact? "I Feel So Numb" presents a new twist on immortality. When two ancient bloodsuckers grow world weary, only one game remains to stimulate them: the most dangerous game imaginable. What follows is a story with high stakes and ferocious action! In "Night School," the bloodsucker is an amoral teenager with plenty of time to kill. Yearning for company, he sets his sights on turning the girl who rejected him. Unfortunately, a mysterious group has identified him, and are about to take action. This is going to be one hell of a learning experience. These stories will thrill fans of Laurel K. Hamilton's early Anita Blake books, David J. Schow's hyperviolent fiction and Richard Laymon's horrors.
A vampire's quest for vengeance against organized crime ignites a brutal street war, ensnaring innocent bystanders in the deadly crossfire. A vengeful vampire, driven by a vendetta against the mob, finds himself in a violent confrontation with a gangster, initiating a bloody conflict that spills onto the city streets. Caught between the supernatural fury and human desperation are two police officers fighting for survival. The narrative explores themes of immortality and the dangerous games the ancient play, while also depicting the predatory nature of a young vampire and the consequences of his desires when a mysterious group intervenes.
The collection is positioned as a fresh injection of adrenaline and imagination into vampire fiction, drawing comparisons to the early works of Laurel K. Hamilton, David J. Schow, and Richard Laymon. The stories are presented as thrilling tales of undead danger, featuring high stakes and ferocious action. The reception, based on the publisher's description, suggests a focus on visceral excitement and genre subversion. Readers can expect a blend of supernatural conflict, crime elements, and dark themes.
