When the first body appears drained of blood, Paul Walker automatically thinks the killer is a vampire. But vampires aren't real, or so he's been told by the local constabulary. But when he witnesses the murder of his sister by one of the vampires, he realizes the creatures are real; they're just different from what the books and movies have led him to believe. Now he only needs to convince the local police before the town is overrun. As he races back to town, though, he realizes he might be too late.
Born in 1959, and preferring not to think too hard about it, Neil Davies writes genre fiction (mostly science fiction and horror, but he refuses to be held to that). When not writing books, he records music with his son as The 1850 Project, and paints pictures of dubious artistic merit with acrylic paints. When not creating, he likes to read books, listen to music, and watch well-made films and trashy TV. A solitary animal by nature, he nevertheless lives with his long-suffering wife and two adult children in the Wirral, UK.
As a fan of Davies' stellar novel, The Demon Guardian, I looked forward to his new work, the horror novella, Vampire Worms. Keeping steady with his solid handle on the horror genre and what makes it rock, this short, fast novella never bores, never bogs down, gets to the goods immediately. Vampire worms are decimating cities across England! That's all you need to know. Reminiscent, and as fun, as some of the SyFy Channel's better horror films, this book rocks and takes you along for shocks, fun, suspense, good characterization, and thrills. Plus, Davies is a fine writer with nice style. Bonus! Check it out, horror fans!
