As the Crow Flies by Lorraine Brown
Sara's empathy with animals takes its cue from Francis of Assisi, but her husband Isaiah regards her as backward and in need of guidance--administered physically as often as necessary. Sara is a good witch with a good heart, and willing to tolerate Evil. But how much can she take?
Lorraine Brown's "As The Crow Flies" is a battle between the mundane and the arcane. Evil has the advantage of weapons and physical strength. But Sara has lots of little friends . . .
This story chapbook includes illustrations by Marge Simon.

Beast by Erin Donahoe
Beast is an illustrated collection of poetry that derives some of its themes and sensuality from the Japanese tales of the fox-woman. Its eroticism is both haunting and intense, its language both folkloric and intimate. And its imagery and vision is beyond the scope of anything you have ever read before. You owe it to yourself to buy this chapbook...and to read it in candlelight, with a glass of wine and with a...close friend.

Blood Journey by Henry Lewis Sanders & Terrie Leigh Relf
Blood Journey is an intricately constructed tale of love and revenge among the undead. The beheading of the evil Baroness Andora by Count Vasilie sets off a chain of events among the followers of the Church of the Dark Mother that threatens to destroy the vampire community. Relf and Sanders follow the trail of blood and darkness that began long ago and far away as they weave an erotic path through the exotic nights of London, Athens, and Seattle. Blood Journey has enough sex, blood, lust, and mayhem to slake the thirst of even the most avid readers of the Dark Side.

Blood Sampler: Subtle Sips & Spicy Shots by David Lee Summers and Lee Clark Zumpe
Two of the finest minds in the genres have amalgamated their imaginations to come up with some of the rockinest and rollinest vampire flash fiction this side of Bucharest. David Lee ["Yes, we have no sferatu"] Summers, of Tales of the Talisman and Heirs of the New Earth fame, and Lee Clark ["So that's Buffy"] Zumpe, mild-mannered reporter for a daily metro-Floridian newspaper, take you on a journey through the short stuff. With detailed illustrations by Caroline O'Neal, who also did the cover art, Blood Sampler is a must-read even if you don't care for the suckers.

Blood Verse by Derek Clendening, illustrated by Marcia A. Borell
In Early and Late Romantic Writing Classes at Brock University, Derek Clendening hit upon the idea of combining poetic concepts—what is a poet, what does he do, and how does he see more clearly than others—with vampires and vampirism. Coming to regard the vampire as a creative being, he envisioned new possibilities for the literary vampire.
Within these pages are poetic works that will take you beyond the stereotypes of the media—the movies, the novels, the nosferatu. Come turn these pages and see how the undead do it.
