Have you ever felt like you’re constantly getting more of the same with vampire fiction?  Tragic princes,Vampire Fiction With A Murderously Philosophical Edge! Articles moody forever-teens, and cackling, cape-clad villains are everywhere.

How many Lestat, Bill, Jean-Claude, or even Edward clones do you run into in your readings?  How often do the plots center on the problem of BEING a vampire?

There’s nothing wrong with this repetition – truckloads of vampire stories are sold on the old premises every single day, and the traditional stuff keeps the genre profitable and popular.  Not a bad thing!

But do you ever get tired of the cardboard cut-outs – and the ENDLESS romance – found in so much of vampire fiction?

What surprisingly few authors – and readers – understand is…

Vampire fiction is flexible and adaptable over a huge range of possibilities – it’s MUCH more than romantic reruns, trembling teen angst, and cookie-cutter Counts…

Vampire fiction – in the right hands – can bring you deep, compelling stories that’ll satisfy your taste for blood and mayhem… AND make you think!

Enter “Faces Of Murder.”

The gleeful, mysterious vampire Raven finds herself face-to-face with the living personification of murder itself in a vicious, hard-hitting tale that delivers you an unflinching look at what the innate human desire to kill means for the future of humanity itself.

Raven’s a diminutive, Doors-quoting vampires with a sparkle in her eyes, hippie threats, and an obscenely powerful .475 strapped to her hip.  She doesn’t need the gun – she’s one of the strongest vampires to ever live – but she keeps it around because she likes it.

Raven loves to kill – she’ll be the first to admit to it – but she’s not a slave to her hungers, and she doesn’t kill indiscriminately.  Some say she’s mad, but others recognize the method to her madness, and how completely she owns her destiny.  In fact…

This short little vampires may very well be the next step in humanity’s evolution – confident, powerful, and utterly self-aware.

On the other hand, the murder man – humanity’s inherent killing urge condensed into the shape of a silver-tongued cult leader – exists only to push humanity towards its own self-destruction.  Aiding the murder man is an army of flesh-eating acolytes who obey his every command – even killing their own families without hesitation.

When these two combustible elements collide outside of a desert truck stop on a stormy evening in the 70’s, the results aren’t pretty.

It’s a gruesome – yet compelling – look at the true place of murder in the human condition, and how it’s not as cut-and-dried as you may think.  Can murder be a positive force?

It’s not an easy question, and regardless of what happens between Raven and the murder-man, you’ll have to decide the right answer for yourself.  This isn’t the same ‘ol teeny-bopper song and dance you find in so many of today’s vampire stories…

“Faces Of Murder” will thrill you, chill you, and deliver a thought-provoking, blood-soaked story that’ll stay with you long after you’re done reading.

As you can guess, “Faces Of Murder” isn’t for everybody.  If you’re a reader who prefers traditionally safe and romantic vampire stories– you’d better move on.  This isn’t a tale for wide-eyed Edward fans – it’s a sharp-edged story for those of us who need vampire fiction with REAL fangs.
