Vampire Peter

Hugo and Shirley Jackson award-winning Peter Watts stands on the cutting edge of hard SF with his acclaimed novel, Blindsight Two months since the stars fell... Two months of silence, while a world held its breath. Now some half-derelict space probe, sparking fitfully past Neptune's orbit, hears a whisper from the edge of the solar system: a faint signal sweeping the cosmos like a lighthouse beam. Whatever's out there isn't talking to us. It's talking to some distant star, perhaps. Or perhaps to something closer, something en route. So who do you send to force introductions with unknown and unknowable alien intellect that doesn't wish to be met? You send a linguist with multiple personalities, her brain surgically partitioned into separate, sentient processing cores. You send a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultrasound. You send a pacifist warrior in the faint hope she won't be needed. You send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist—an informational topologist with half his mind gone—as an interface between here and there. Pray they can be trusted with the fate of a world. They may be more alien than the thing they've been sent to find. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

New Vampire Cinema lifts the coffin lid on forty contemporary vampire films, from 1992 to the present day, charting the evolution of a genre that is, rather like its subject, at once exhausted and vibrant, inauthentic and 'original', insubstantial and self-sustaining. Ken Gelder's fascinating study begins by looking at Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula and Fran Rubel Kuzui's Buffy the Vampire Slayer – films that seemed for a moment to take vampire cinema in completely opposite directions. New Vampire Cinema then examines what happened afterwards, across a remarkable range of reiterations of the vampire that take it far beyond its original Transylvanian setting: the suburbs of Sweden (Let the Right One In), the forests of North America (the Twilight films), New York City (Nadja, The Addiction), Mexico (Cronos, From Dusk Till Dawn), Japan (Blood: The Last Vampire,

THE SEVENTH DAY was inspired by actual events and their resulting, recurring nightmares. “Skyla could not—would not—believe that she was meant to lead a mystical life. The plane was taking off and leaving the imaginary world behind.”But the magical world had never been interested in leaving Skyla Jane Judge alone and would not start now. Bound for her home in New England, 21-year-old Skyla Jane Judge is leaving behind the “den” where she found acceptance and the promise of eternal love and enlightenment in New Orleans. Confused about who she really is, she hopes that a return to her roots will provide her with some direction and help to ground her again. But den leader Steve has other plans. When he pays a call on her after a mysterious trip to the Louisiana Bayou, he proposes a destiny far more grand than the simple one she’s come home in search of. Skyla ultimately must look deep into her soul for answers, and what she finds opens the door to a fate that exceeds her wildest imaginings. THE SEVENTH DAY (50,000 words) is Book #3 of The Vampire’s Witch Saga, following Book #1 (THE DEN) and Book #2 (IN THE BLOOD). Book #4 in the series--SOMETHING WICKED--is now also available!
