Kentucky Geek Girl just posted a wonderful new review of my first anthology as editor, Vampires Don’t Sparkle! Here is an excerpt:
“In a world which has become oversaturated by creatures of the night, this anthology brings the topic of conversation back to the monster, back to the old-fashioned vampire of lore. The vampires in this collection are meant to be terrifying, to cause suspense, to enthrall you rather than make you squee like a teenage Twihard. There are no vegetarian vampires in this book. There are fifteen stories in this Vampires Don’t Sparkle! and each piece of this collection adds a new layer to the vampire mythos. Whether its by reimagining old tales or looking toward the future, these stories fit together in a brilliant tapestry with the common thread of the classic, fearsome vampire. I think that the stories flowed together quite well and I liked to see different themes within the book including the vampire hunter, which in my opinion is a very important part of the vampire mythology. Where there is a creature of the night there will (most likely) be someone who wants to figure out what makes them work and put an end to the terror…Great storytelling, plain and simple. If you’re a fan of horror and vampires in general, this is the collection for you.”
