Bloodlines: The Complete Serial Thriller
For the first time, all 5 episodes of Bloodlines: A Serial Thriller (Abomination, Brutalization, Corruption, Damnation and Extinction) are contained in a single, exciting volume.
Jamie Whitman has it all. A beautiful girlfriend he hopes to marry one day. A mother and stepfather he loves. Great friends. And a bright future as a dentist. He's built himself a new life and left the horror of his past behind.
His abusive father is gone. The crimes of his youth have long been forgotten. And he's learned to control the rage and anger that simmers under the surface, the same violent madness he inherited from his father that turned his father into a monster all those years ago.
Life couldn't be better.
Until an odd gypsy woman looks into his eyes and proclaims him monstru- an abomination.
Until his beloved Grandmother Anna dies suddenly.
Until his past catches up to him in brutal fashion.
Jamie's perfect life is suddenly turned upside down as the truth about his father, his legacy and his bloodline is revealed to him. And as the darkness and rage he spent so long struggling to control begins to surface, he finds himself fighting not only those who would use him or destroy him, but his own demons bent on corrupting him as well.
From the author of the supernatural thriller Blood, Smoke and Ashes comes Bloodlines, a serial novel in five parts.
Sometimes surviving isn't enough if it means losing your humanity. Sometimes death is the kinder fate. Unfortunately, sometimes the choice isn't yours to make.

About the author
Bradley Convissar
30 books105 followersI am a dentist by day, a writer of dark fiction at night, and a father, husband, and not-so-proud pet owner when time permits.
I am the author of several dozen short stories, four novellas, and will be releasing my first novel, Blood, Smoke and Ashes, a supernatural thriller, in early 2013.
I was born in Georgia, but moved to southern New Jersey before I could be forced to be an Atlanta Braves fan. I spent my formative years living outside of Philadelphia where I latched on to the Philly sports teams and was promptly disappointed for almost twenty years. I spent my college years in New Orleans where I learned his bachelor's degree in evolutionary biology at Tulane University, then relocated to lovely Newark New Jersey, where I earned his DMD.
After eight years of bouncing around, I finally settled down back in south Jersey, only miles from the house I grew up in. I am happily married and the proud father of two children. I am also "dad' to a diabetic, half-blind eight-year-old daschund named Friday who is little more than a lump on the couch most of the time.
When not filling cavities or performing root canals or extracting teeth or fabricating dentures, or writing, I spend my time playing with my kids, playing video games, reading comic books, reading non-illustrated books, and impotently rooting on my beloved Philadelphia Phillies and less than beloved Philadelphia Eagles.
My favorite authors are, but not limited to, Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Clive Barker, Richard Matheson, Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child, Simon Green, Jim Butcher, and Jeffery Deaver. I like to think that I learned something of the art of writing from each of these authors.
To this day, I wonder how the TV show LOST got so bad, so quickly. The wasted potential of the first three seasons still haunts me.

Don't get me wrong; I love to read. Reading has saved my life on a few occasions and my sanity on many more. I have been an editor and English tutor as well. I understand the writing process but even without an editor there is absolutely no excuse for the kinds of mistakes flooding this book. It seems as if there are glaring errors on every page to the point that the mistakes detracted from what was otherwise an amazing book.
The characters were interesting, the plot fast paced and the story put a fresh twist on the classic horror plot device of possession. These were enough to make me finish the book but not enough for me to continue to read the author. Find better beta readers and please consider hiring a qualified editor.

Couldn't put it down
I love paranormal but usually don't read books about demons,but I got this series free. Loved it!! Great storyline and good characters .Will definitely recommend this. Would have received 5 stars but had too many misspellings that had to be figured out. Still loved the series though. Stayed up all night..now I can sleep.

While I wish e-authors (or whoever they have help) would take more time with editing, I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this book. A different take on the demonic possession theme. I liked it.

FABULOUS.
Fantastic book with a very interesting and exciting story. The plot was definitely different than what I'm used to reading but I enjoyed it very much and would definitely recommend this book.
