V Wars

Now a Netflix series starring Ian Somerhalder. The world has been transformed by a millenia-old virus that turns the infected into vampires, each one as unique as the victim's DNA and culture. But, the response from unaffected humans is like never before, leading to all-out war. New York Times best-selling author Jonathan Maberry takes you on a non-stop thrill ride of action, horror and suspense! These all-new tales chronicling the early days of the Vampire Wars offer the first salvo in the battle between humans and hundreds of new species of vampires! No matter how it ends, the world is going to bleed. Collects the complete 11-issue series.

The Crimson Queen makes her first appearance and brings with her one of the most disturbing truths about the Vampire Wars: you can't tell who is infected. The enemy might be right next to you. This is a war that will be fought everywhere- within the government, within communities, within families. And, no matter how it ends, The World. Is. Going. To. Bleed.

Joe Ledger and Big Dog: two top field agents who hate each other more than they do the vampires--have to find a way to work together to stop a new species of genetically enhanced vampire super-soldier. How far into darkness will heroes go to stop monsters? How far is too far?

Big Dog and V-8 are the top gunslingers in the escalating battle with vampire terrorists. But the hunt for a new and intensely brutal species of bloodsucker puts them in the crosshairs of the world's most dangerous special operative: Joe Ledger. NY Times bestseller Jonathan Maberry brings the hero of his internationally popular series of weird science thrillers into the thick of the hunt!

With the Vampire Wars burning hotter and bloodier with each new day, Reporter Yuki Nitobe is abducted and brought into the vampire underground. When Yuki is shown the world of these new species of vampires, she realizes no one has been telling the truth! Does she risk everything by exposing both sides or file the report that she knows gives her the biggest ratings?

A group of vampires who claim to be nonviolent and non-predatory, try to settle in a small southern town. When problems escalate between ´Bloods' (vampires) and ´Beats' (non-infected humans), the military special operations unit, V-8, rolls in to contain the situation. This one doesn't end well for anyone.

They say that when you fight monsters you sometimes become a monster. In the bloody conclusion of the vampire super soldier arc, Joe Ledger, Luther Swann, and Big Dog are trapped in a secret underground called The Abyss. If they fall, the world of man will drown in an ocean of blood.

It's been one year since a virus triggered junk DNA and people all over the world started changing. Becoming something else. Craving blood. It's been ten months since the word 'vampire' stopped being something from old monster stories and Hollywood movies. It's been six months since our world and theirs erupted into war. It's been two months since an uneasy peace was signed. It's been one hour since that peace was shattered. The war is here again. The vampire war. Our world will burn. Our world will bleed! When anyone can turn, when every street is a battlefield, there is nowhere to run! V-Wars: Blood and Fire is edited and co-written by New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry and features all new stories of the Vampire Wars by Kevin J. Anderson, Scott Sigler, Larry Corriea, Joe McKinney, Nancy Holder, Yvonne Navarro, Weston Ochse and James A. Moore.
