More About the Author

I'm best known for writing THE VAMPIRE FILES, a series about an undead vampire Jack Fleming whose first case is to solve his OWN murder! There's 12 books and counting, as well as a number of short stories about his adventures.

In addition to writing, I've gone into editing and had the pleasure of working with the top names in urban fantasy with several award-winning collections.

Lately, I've just signed to edit a new anthology for St. Martin's called HEX SYMBOLS and signed a 3-book contract with Tor for a new steampunk series, ON HER MAJESTY'S PSYCHIC SERVICE. I'm currently working on the first book, THE HANGED MAN.

I consider myself to be danged lucky to have a job that I love this much!

There's a lot more info on my website: www.vampwriter.com and, yeah, you figured it, I'm on FaceBook. Far too often for my own good! Drop in and hang out!

This book is the third in the series and keeps the same feel as the first books. Jonathon Barret travels to England to search for Nora, the woman who made him a vampire, and gets into trouble which has a surprising outcome. The book really is great, even though I don't do a very good job describing it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Back to England!, June 17, 2000

This review is from: Death Masque (Paperback)

Again, our gentleman vampire goes to England, this time to trace his beloved Nora. Even when doing his best to avoid it, he lands into much tribulation.

This addition to the history of Jonathon Barret and his family is as well written and engaging as the others. With revelations popping up through out the novel, delightful and otherwise, from the trip across the Atlantic to the final pages, this book is well worth the read.

This review is from: Death Masque (Paperback)

This is one of the best series I have ever read. Jonathan has gone back to England with his sister, Elizabeth, and is desperately searching for the woman, Nora Jones, who made him a vampire. On the journey, brother and sister discover some things about themselves that could prove their demise. This is an excellent book and I would recommend this series to just about anybody!
