Blurb:
Louis’ whole life was planned right to a bite on the neck at his seventeenth birthday. The British native has a whole lot of changes coming his way. There’s the cravings, the urges, the relocation to rural USA…it’s a lot for a teenager to handle. Throw in the possibility that he might not be as straight as he always thought and it’s a tangled mess as Louis tries to navigate his new life as a vampire.
Things aren’t going to be easy though, and his foster-vampire Duncan is determined to make Louis a fine upstanding example of vampirism—or else. Louis has his handbook though to explain well, some things. But not everything.
When a new vampire shows up in town, Louis thinks he’s finally found someone to confide in, except Eli has his own agenda and Louis is about to find out that being a vampire means more than drinking blood and causing mayhem—there are also dirty politics, dark secrets, and a whole lot of reading assignments.

Author Interview with Voss Foster

Enjoy our fun interview and a reading from Voss Foster. We chatted about his new release Tartaros in early with Prizm Books as well as life in general.


Tartaros by Voss Foster


A demon hunter, Daniel Tartaros is sworn to slay the denizens of Hell and, for over a decade, he has. He’s kept the world, and his girlfriend, safe. But, one night, the demons cross the threshold to his home. His girlfriend is taken, possessed by a powerful demon. Too powerful for him.
But the horror increases when he finds out the truth: it’s not just a demon. Lilith, the Queen of Hell, has bound herself into a human body to be with him. But broken free and without the restraint of a human life, she still needs him, and plans to use all of her power to keep him. She’ll do what it takes to keep him, even if it means the end of life. With Earth hanging by spider’s silk, the tiniest ripple from either Daniel or Lilith could send it swinging into the fires of destruction.

A Guidebook to the Strange

Vampirism and You is my response to a swathe of sparkling, moody, vegan vampires. Louis is a moody teenager who never wanted to be a vampire, but he's certainly going to make the best of his situation.

*****

Tomas a priest for the vatican is feeling lust for the lovely Joaquin while on a ship. He cannot resist his urges and Joaquin seems to reciprocate this sentiment. After flirtation and inuendo the who stand at a crossroads. Will this be a trip they will never forget?

How many ways can I say loved this. The plot was the best kind of scandalous. The characters were well written and the story was perfectly paced. The only thing better would be if there were more people brave enough to tackle such a theme. A good read for anyone.

****1/2

Devon inherited a home from his familie's estate. It is in great disrepair and in need of a handyman to tend to it. The home is for the workers of the hammer club who make little money. Could the man hired for the job be just the man for Devon?

This was a good story full of drama and sex. It would have merited a whole five stars had the drama in the plot not taken over so much. The back story could have been simplified and the sexual content more prevalent.

Dromos by G. Arden O'feden


Thousands of people go missing each year, and Everett Lacrowe discovers where they go when he falls into a world where the only purpose seems to be collecting others like himself. While most people in Dromos accept their surroundings and use a pointless routine to distract themselves, Everett will attempt to find out a way out.
