Blood, fangs, darkness and terror...these are the calling cards of the vampire mythos. Inside this tome are stories that embrace vampire history but seek to introduce a new literary spin on this longstanding fictional monster. Follow a dark journey through cigarette-smoking creatures hunted by rogue angels, vampires that feed off of thoughts instead of blood, immortals presenting the fantastic in a local rock band, to a legendary monster on the far reaches of town. Forget what you know about vampires; this anthology will destroy historical mythos and embrace incredible new twists on this celebrated, fictional character. Welcome to a world of the undead, welcome to the world of Eternal Night. With stories from Axel Taiari, Chris Deal, Tony Schaab, Kelly M. Hudson, Simon West-Bulford, Jessy Marie Roberts, Christopher Dwyer, Anthony Giangregorio, Richard Thomas, Spencer Wendleton, Edward J. Rathke, David H. Donaghe, Caleb Ross, Nik Korpon, Rob X Roman, and G.R. Mosca

Eternal Night: A Vampire Anthology Reviews

  • Richard Thomas

    Yes, I contributed a story to this collection, a story called "Transmogrify" about energy vampires, energivores, who feed off of misery and depression. But I don't want to talk about that.

    This collection is a mixed bag, but the ones that work, really work well. It is worth it to check out:

    "A Light To Starve" by Axel Taiari
    "Goat Sucker Blues" by Chris Deal (author of Cienfuegos)
    "Amiko" by Simon West-Bulford (author of The Soul Consortium)
    "Suicide Angels" by Christopher Dwyer
    "Song For Shadows" by Edward J. Rathke
    "Born Again Michael" by Caleb Ross (author of Charactered Pieces)
    "Devil Children Unite" by Nik Korpon (author of Stay God)

    These all took risks, and built on the standard mythology of vampires, in new and exciting ways. The rest I found to be derivative, cliché and expected. I do think it is worth it to check out the stories above, as these are some very talented authors, many of whom have novels, chapbooks, or collections out now or soon.
