Friday Night Bites
Release Date: 8th April 2010
Publisher: Victor Gollancz Limited (Aus)
VAMPIRES IN CHICAGO!You’d think a headline like that would have made the fine citizens of the Windy City to take up arms against us bloodsucking fiends. Instead, ten months later, we’re enjoying celebrity statue and fending off the paparazzi, who are only slightly less dangerous than angry stake-wielding slayers. Don’t get me wrong – Joe Public isn’t exactly thrilled to be living side by side with the undead, but at least they haven’t stormed the castle . . . not yet . . . But it could be a matter of time. There’s a first-time reporter sniffing around vampire society, and if he uncovers the Raves – mass feeding parties, where vampires round humans up like cattle and drink themselves silly. The fact that it’s majorly frowned upon by vamp society won’t make a difference to that kind of a headline, or a new reporter who’s out to impress his family.So now my ‘master’ – the centuries-old yet gorgeously well-preserved Ethan Sullivan – wants me to reconnect with my own upper-class family and act as liaison between humans and vampire . . . and use the opportunity to keep the less savoury aspects of vamp existence out of the media spotlight. Tough job, when it seems someone doesn’t want vamps and humans to play nicely – someone with a serious, ancient grudge . . .

Some Girls Bite by Chloe Neill
Release Date: 7th April 2009

Sure, the life of a graduate student wasn’t exactly glamorous, but it was mine. I was doing fine until Chicago’s vampires announced their existence to the world – and then a rogue vampire attacked me. But he only got a sip before he was scared away by another bloodsucker . . . one who decided the best way to save my life was to take it.Turns out my saviour was the master vampire of Cadogan House. Now I’ve traded sweating over my thesis for learning to fit in at a Hyde Park mansion full of vamps loyal to Ethan ‘Lord o’ the Manor’ Sullivan. Of course, as a tall, green-eyed, four hundred year old vampire, he has centuries’ worth of charm, but unfortunately he also seems to expect my eternal gratitude – and servitude. Right . . .But my burgeoning powers (all of a sudden, I’m surprisingly handy with some serious weaponry), an inconvenient sunlight allergy, and Ethan’s attitude are the least of my concerns. Someone’s out to get me. Is it the rogue vampire who bit me? A vamp from a rival House? An angry mob bearing torches?My initiation into Chicago’s nightlife may be the first skirmish in a war – and there’s going to be blood . . .
