Jane Davis’ Virtual Book Club: ‘I slithered bloody from my mother’s womb with a head full of other worlds…’ blood dragons and me 2

Readeropolis: ‘I see a novel happening in my mind; it’s like I’m translating it down. Tarantino has said he does the same. Apart from he probably said it in a cooler, more American way.’

Laurie’s Paranormal Thoughts and Reviews: ‘I know the end of a novel before I’ve even written the first line. It’s like being a chauffeur of a Limousine full of VIPs (the readers) – I don’t set off on a journey without first checking the car’s not going to breakdown and I know the route!’

blood-dragons-cover-large-ebook — Buy Now

With Blood Dragons on the Dark Fantasy Amazon Best Seller List and both Blood Dragons AND Blood Shackles booting their way onto Vampire Suspense Best Sellers this last week has been… exciting.

All right..understatement. If I was Light right now? I’d be on a wild whirlwind of joyous crimson carnage. Me? I settled in to write the third book – Blood Renegades. Any excuse to listen to its music…seriously, you’re going to love it.

Whilst I’ve been peeking in on the Lists and sauntering into events (yeah, there is an online saunter), still being as much a fantasy fanatic as ever, here’s Three Fantasy Writers Who Make You Think:

C. J. Rutherford: Souls of the Never. YA fantasy/science fiction as it should be. Alternate realities? Time travel? Dragons? All present and correct, sir.
John G. Hartness: Heaven Help Us. Urban fantasy just how I like it – dark – with a side order of immortal demon hunter, werewolves and Homeland Security.
Patty Jansen: Icefire Trilogy. Did I say I liked dark? This is gritty, shocking and don’t take the warnings lightly… But the world building? Class act.

Blood Dragons and Blood Shackles are both out now at 0.99 until 30th blood-shackles-cover-large-ebook November.

In a divided paranormal London, one bad boy vampire’s dangerous hidden love could bring about the end of the world – unless he can play the role of hero and save both species – and maybe even himself.

It’s a dangerous game to love your slave…

Rosmary A Johns Urban Portraits

When your whole species is enslaved – and it’s the humans who are acting like the monsters – how far would you go to free your family?

“Once you start reading it you just cannot put it down. A first class performance from a writer at the very top of her game.” – SLH Reviews

What happens when SPARTACUS meets VAMPIRES? Except the vampires are the slaves… In a divided paranormal London, Light is the rebel vampire of the Blood Lifer world, with a talent for remembering things. And a Triton motorbike. Since Victorian times he’s hidden in the shadows. But not now. Not since someone hunted and enslaved him. When he’s bought by his alluring Mistress, Light fights to escape. Even if he can’t escape their love. But if he doesn’t, he’ll never solve the conspiracy behind the Blood Club…

WELCOME TO THE BLOOD CLUB

Who are these ruthless humans? Who’s their brutal leader? And who betrayed the secret of the Blood Lifer world?

WHERE THE PREDATORS

London, Primrose Hill. Grayse is the commanding slaver’s daughter. The enemy. She buys Light, like he’s a pair of designer shoes. So why does Light feel so drawn to her? Ashamed, he battles with his desire, even as he burns for her. Can a slave truly love his Mistress? Especially when his family is still in chains. Will he risk everything – even his new love – to save them?

BECOME THE PREY

Does a chilling conspiracy lie behind it all? A stunning revelation leads Light to an inconceivable truth. To the dark heart of the Blood Club. If he can face his worst terrors, he can save his family and his whole species from slavery.

Maybe he can even save himself. spines

Get ready to dive into Blood Life…

5* “This book was awesome…an emotional ride.” – Vicki, Goodreads

HALLOWEEN FANTASY SALE – And Top Three Vampires To Invite Round On Halloween

blood-dragons-halloween-teaser

Happy Halloween! The night for ghosts, zombies and…(wait for it…), vampires.

Tomorrow Blood Life returns with the release of Blood Shackles, the second standalone novel in the Rebel Vampires series. Almost like somebody planned it…

Today Blood Dragons goes on sale for the next month at 0.99 to celebrate the launch. So readers can catch up with Light’s adventures first (and yeah, I do get how much Light would hate that phrase). Redemptive journey? Thrills, loves and heroic… Let’s stick with misadventures maybe?

Although this Halloween I’m a Vampire Queen, Light’s only in my head. So no Vampire King.

Question is: if you could have one vampire as your King (or Queen), who would it be?

It’s easy if you allow TVs and movies. But I am a creature of the night, so books alone it is.

Here are my Top Three Vampires (To Invite Round on Halloween):

Lestat (Anne Rice) – He’s a brat – but he’d be my brat.
Jean-Claude (Anita Blake) – A beautiful French incubus, who likes to play power politics. Stimulating dinner conversation…
Vampire Hunter D (Hideyuki Kikucki) – half vampire, half human and he hunts his own kind – now that’s what I call a fun party guest.

DISCOVER WHY READERS MAKE A GOOD BLOG TOUR GREAT – Tomorrow Join in and See for Yourself

fs_tourbanner_bloodshackles

Writers. Myth goes we’re a solitary bunch. Hermit-like hunched over our manuscripts. Emerging only at book launches. As Light would say, ‘Bollocks‘. Without a reader, books are merely words on a page. There’s no emotion. No connection. And no point.

Tomorrow my month long book tour kicks off. It’s a way for me – here in Oxford, England – to connect with readers all around the world. To chat, discuss and hand out exclusive sneak peeks. Blood Shackles is released on 1st November. To pre-order it now click here.

There’s going to be giveaways (the chance to win $50 Amazon card), reviews, interviews and excerpts.

Then there’s the guest blogs… Here’s a little taste: ‘The Soundtrack of My Blood Life,’ ‘Inside the Mind of a Slave,’ and ‘How to Cook Like a Vampire.’ Intrigued? Come on, that last one..? Diamond, seriously.

obsession — Photo by Flikr User Lovely Anchor: Vampire books are her Obsession

But the real secret to a good blog tour becoming great? I could’ve written War and Peace but it wouldn’t matter. If none of you folks turned up, shared, liked, commented and turned it from an event into an event.

Click here to see where I’ll be each day. I’ll update Facebook daily too. Follow me on Twitter, RT and use #BloodShackles to spread the word.

Post pictures of yourself with the novel on Facebook. Ask me anything you like – I double dare you. Tell your dog – it’s Halloween, he me-and-blood-shackles-3
may be listening.

The Blood Club is coming. How far would you go to free your family?
