Sink your fangs into this feast of vampire fiction. Here are twenty-five stories rich in gothic tradition. Turn out the lights and curl up with your Kindle and let a flickering candle flame light the way to a world of ruined castles, deconsecrated abbeys, and crypts where vampires in evening dress dream of seducing beautiful young virgins as they await the coming of night. Vampires come in many guises and you will find every type of bloodsucker within these pages, including an unforgettable lesbian vampire who spawned an entire genre of fiction and film.Stories in the collection:An Episode of Cathedral History, by M.R.
