More About the Author

Barbara Mack has been fascinated by words and writing since early childhood. The first story she put into print format was about the birds who came to nest in the gardening shed; it reviewed well with critics (the neighbors, her mother and father, grandparents, etc.) She then had a poem - Love Never Dies - published in an international magazine at age 11, and she's never looked back.

She currently has several historical romance novels available and when she's not writing furiously, you can find her in the kitchen. Her cookbook Easy, Fabulous Bread Making: A collection of quick, no-knead bread recipes is consistently in the top 50 Kindle books on bread making.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Modern Day Gothic Vampire, July 18, 2003

By

This review is from: Blood Worship (Paperback)

Blood Worship is a vampire story set in the hot and steamy climes of Florida. It centres around the teen goth culture and you could at first be forgiven for feeling that Sang Adorer is just another crazed psychopath with sanguinarian tendencies......but as Barbara Mack reveals in shocking detail he is the "real deal".

Jessie Hartwell is not your typical embodiment of the media perception of a goth, having dealt with her mothers tragic and grisly demise she is well equipped for the final showdown with Sang Adorer and his minions.

This tale takes you through the standard vampire mythologies and is fast paced running rapidly into the showdown where the speed slows to create a frisson of tension as you enter the house that has been transformed into a temple of bloodlust.

To say more would be to give away the plot of the book but if you are looking for an entertaining, slightly risqué vampire tale to fill your time with this one should amply suffice.

This review is from: Blood Worship (Paperback)

Entertaining and a fun read.
A mystery/horror story, Jessie is a college aged girl trying to make her way through life after her mother dies and her friends drop like flies.
The dialogue between Jessie and her deceased mother is very entertaining. Her mother guides her from the afterlife as Jessie winds her way through a madman's maze, meeting unsavory characters and losing friends to a hedonistic vampire.
While there are an abudance of characters, each has a place and function within the plot.
I read this book in one sitting, following the twisted killer as he toyed with Jessie and her friends. Heart thumping, breath pausing good.
