This book is a must read for anyone wanting to further understand vampirism/vampire media as a whole or for those who are looking for inspiration and knowledge for writing.
Stephanou goes into great detail in each chapter delving into what vampirism is and why blood is so important in the genre. I encourage all vampire fans to give this book a try I learned a lot from it.
