Giveaway – Vampireology: The True History of the Fallen (Hardback)

26th July 2010 By Susan Mann 24 Comments

I have a Hardback copy of Vampireology: The True History of the Fallen available as a giveaway, thanks to the lovely people at Candlewick Press.

 

 

series name:
Ologies
A Genuine and Moste Authentic Ology
Long before the term vampire was born, long before Bram Stoker fictionalized this being’s ways, blood-drinking demons were banished to Earth by Michael’s host of Angels, or so the Bible describes. Now this rich, mesmerizing resource, written in 1900, sheds light on what happened hence to the three vampire bloodlines — especially the tortured souls known as the Belial. Interspersed are booklets, flaps, and letters between a young paranormal researcher who discovered the book in the 1920s and an oddly alluring woman who seeks his help. Among the phenomena explored are:
* vampires’ genealogical origins, attributes, and range
* myths about the making of vampires
* secrets of vampires’ powers and shape-shifting skills
* tips for spotting vampires, protecting oneself, and fighting back
* case studies of famous vampires — and vampire hunters — through history
* a shocking overview of vampires “living” among us
Explore (if you dare) the true history of the Fallen Ones — and follow the fate of a 1920s investigator lured by a beauty with violet eyes.
This is my favourite in the ology series, it is something little different. I love the pockets and the snippets of information. If your a vampire fan or fan of gorgeous books, this is a must-have.

    Just can't get enough of the vampires at the moment – my friend got me into them with Twilight (and I'm way off teenage years), now I'm hooked on Trueblood and Vampire Diaries. I have always loved Lost Boys, Dracula, Interview with a Vampire, the list goes on . . . they are just sooo intriguing! Love you site design BTW xEmail: mummymatters@gmail.com

    I've always been fascinated with the vampire genre–and no, not those sparkly ones that don't kill anyone–so this book would be so interesting to read!
