The Dark Side
Looking for a new series with vamps, demons, shapelifters and other beings who are misunderstood? Try these:
Charlaine Harris has finally found her way out of the coffin with her series, Sookie Stackhouse, now an HBO series called "True Blood". Read the books and see what's been changed!
Vampire Academy, by Richelle Mead - Going to school with the undead is no picnic!
In the Company of Ogres by A. Lee Martinez - Never Dead Ned is undead with a twist...he keeps dying but coming back to life and this is cramping his lifestyle. In an attempt to avoid deadly situations, Ned switches to the army accounting department, only to be ordered to the front :)
Only in Canada, eh? Well, we too have our vampires, werewolves and zombies. Look into Tanya Huff and her Blood Ties series - Blood Price and Blood Trail.
For a lighter side of dark - try Michelle Rowen's Bitten and Smitten, Fanged and Fabulous and Lady and the Vamp.
Need something a little Fang in Cheeck? Blood Sucking Fiends by Christopher Moore should hit the spot, and the sequel, You Suck is even better!
Had it with vamps and want something a little different? Take a walk on the light side of demons and dragons. Aisling Grey didn't know she was destined to be a guardian of Hell, would fall for a dragon/man who is Ranger with flames, or inherit a dog named Jim, who happens to be a demon, and not a very good one!
