Join Thad Baker in his journey from simple farmer to blood drinking vampire. Along the way he meets up with some of the most unique creatures you've ever met. (Not all of which are vampires, but not quite normal either!)
Thaddeus “Tad” Baker, a man born in the Southern US during the mid 1800's seemed to have everything going for him before meeting a beautiful young woman named Tabitha, who turns out to be a vampire in search of a companion. And during his moment of weakness, he's transformed into one himself.
After becoming a vampire, he manages to escape Tabitha and quickly returns home to his wife and family. Tad then tries to devise a way to hide what he'd become from those around him.
After remaining by his wife's side for the duration of her mortal life, Tad sets out to see the world. While on these travels, he meets up with various other unusual creatures, not all of which are vampires like himself, some are far more unique creatures.
This story takes the reader on an action-packed ride through the lives of it's characters.
So if your looking for a book that takes a different spin on the world of those that roam the night, then I think this may be the book for you.
Thank you in advance,
Charles E. Lee
Excerpt
As I walked through town, I still thought about that smell at the
bar the night before.
“Could there actually be another one of my kind here?” I asked
myself, while watching people scurry in and out of the line of Bars
on Main St.
I had caught scents that resembled my own before, but they
usually turned out to be other things. In today’s times, it was
harder to be sure what anything was simply by the way it smells.
Pollution and people wearing all types of perfume scented
products made it easy to confuse the senses.
I began to walk down the sidewalk waiting for my “unlucky
meal” to walk by. Hunting has became easier the last twenty years
or so. Hell, people will leave a bar with just about anyone.
Hookers don’t take their pimps along for protection like they did
a hundred years ago. Dope heads will give themselves to you for
just a few dollars worth of drugs. From a Vampire’s point of view,
the twentieth century is an all you can eat buffet.
Thanks to the Goth look, I am able to walk the streets
I found this book to be very interesting. I liked the way Mr. Lee mixed together a good dramamatic, thrilling tale, with some very unusual characters.
Thanks and hope to see more of his works soon!
In a near-future Baltimore, an unemployed bipolar journalist and a teenage hacker are the last hope for a dystopian world controlled by a giant media corporation.
