When a vampire seduces you, death is minutes away. When she hires you,
you'll soon wish you were dead.
It's a truth known to every guardian who worked for Fiona, including
Daniel. Aside from managing the day-to-day chores and keeping them
protected, he manages an investment portfolio to buy stolen blood from
hospital workers. The 250-year-old Fiona needs 10 pints of human blood
every night. As a result of this, Daniel and Fiona are always on the
lookout for police but fail to notice their gradual encirclement by
Mors Strigae, an ancient order of monks dedicated to the extermination
of vampires. Gone for a century, the monks start a new war when they
destroy Fiona's sire. This time, her vampire family is pushed to the
edge of extinction -- and the humans who serve them are hunted and
executed.
After 35 years, what keeps him loyal? And will he ever be allowed to
leave?
The hardback version includes two bonus short stories which introduce
the sequel to Fiona's Guardians. Dan Kleftstad's original spin on the
vampire legend brings bloodsuckers into the 21st century, exploring how
the manipulative and seductive vampire struggles to maintain her hold
to power in the technological age. This original book has already been
adapted into a creative podcast performed by Chicago's Artists'
Ensemble Theatre show: Mysterious Journey.
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Anne Rice, this sensuously written spellbinding classic remains 'the most successful vampire story since Bram Stoker's Dracula' (The Times).
In a darkened room a young man sits telling the macabre and eerie story of his life - the story of a vampire, gifted with eternal life, cursed with an exquisite craving for human blood.
When Interview with the Vampire was published the Washington Post said it was a 'thrilling, strikingly original work of the imagination . . . sometimes horrible, sometimes beautiful, always unforgettable'.
Now, more than forty years since its release, Anne Rice's masterpiece is more beloved than ever.
Willow is in need of an escape.
A former sitcom star, she’s been publicly shamed on the internet after
posting something she really shouldn’t have.
She checks in to Camp Castaway, an adults-only retreat based at an old
campground in the woods.
It’s the first night and the campers gather round the fire to tell some
ghost stories. That’s when Willow hears the tale of Knock Knock Nancy.
A local urban legend about a witch, brutally beheaded in this very
woodland.
They say her restless spirit knocks on doors late at night. If you
answer, she’ll take your head.
Willow doesn’t believe in ghost stories. But the next day, a camper has
vanished under mysterious circumstances. And then that evening, in her
cabin, Willow hears it . . . .
Knock, Knock, Knock.
