Blood Sine Qua Non

Covered in blood, a knife in one hand and a gun in the other. This rescue attempt has gone terribly wrong.

I was finally getting used to life among the am'r (the name vampires use for themselves) in Romania, archiving a library of ancient texts, learning how to fight, and having lots of quality time with Sandu-who used to go by the name Dracula-perhaps you've heard of him?

But then the dreams started. Bagamil, the maker of Sandu (and, ahem, also my lover-life has gotten a lot more exciting recently), was supposed to be on a mission to the am'r of South America, but he has been missing for months now, and these nightmares tell me that something is terribly wrong.

So Sandu made rescue plans, and I insisted on coming along to help. But now I've been separated from all our (supposed) allies, and I'm trapped in a booby-trapped cave system down at the bottom of the world, chased by enemy am'r with knives and guns-not fair!

And I have two problems even on top of that. First, I'm now part-am'r, which makes me smell even more delicious to them, and secondly, well, there seem to be even more bad guys than expected down here, and it turns out they're all holding deep grudges against both Sandu and Bagamil. They want revenge right now, and they are happy to use me as part of it.

How can I find my beloveds without falling into a trap or being taken captive by the hangry bad guys? Once we're all together again, how do we figure some way out of all of this? If I've learned anything in my time amongst the am'r, it's only going to be by fighting our way out...

Blood Sine Qua Non is the second book in a fresh and unique dark fantasy series mixing horror, history, and blood-soaked passion featuring a snarky librarian in an adventure like no other, with thrilling plot-twists and characters faced with "personal growth or death." Ranging from Romania through gorgeous settings in Buenos Aires and Tierra del Fuego, get caught up in the clashes of personality and chaotic melees, fight for love with guns, knives, and the ultimate weapon against vampires: fire.
