Working for a vampire hadn’t been in Harmoni’s plans, but so far it was turning out to be better than she’d expected. She and her friends were gaining more skills and experience doing what they loved best. Ares was bonus eye candy for Harm, along with fitting in well with her crew. The handsome warrior has also proven he has talents he shouldn’t possess, given his harrowing past. Omen made a deal with his young employees and so far, he wasn’t living up to his end of their bargain. They needed him to find the creature who’d altered Ares, but it wasn’t going to be easy to force him to cooperate. Now that he knows they have combat skills, she’s worried he’ll try to turn them into his personal assassins. Harmoni and Ares have a close connection, being the only two of their kind in the entire world. Their bond will be strengthened when they discover a magical artifact. While it will bring them closer together, it could also endanger Harm. They will need to weigh their desire for each other against the threat it could pose to Harmoni.

Explores the intersection of the vampire and zombie with 21st Century dystopian and post-apocalyptic cinemaTwenty-first century film and television is overwhelmed with images of the undead. Vampires and zombies have often been seen as oppositional: one alluring, the other repellant; one seductive, the other infectious. With case studies of films like I Am Legend and 28 Days Later, as well as TV programmes like Angel and The Walking Dead, this book challenges these popular assumptions and reveals the increasing interconnection of undead genres. Exploring how the figure of the vampire has been infused with the language of science, disease and apocalypse, while the zombie text has increasingly been influenced by the trope of the areluctant vampire, Stacey Abbott shows how both archetypes are actually two sides of the same undead coin. When considered together they present a dystopian, sometimes apocalyptic, vision of twenty-first century existence.Key featuresRather than seeing them as separate or oppositional, this book explores the intersection and dialogue between the vampire and zombie across film and televisionMuch contemporary scholarship on the vampire focuses on Dark Romance, while this book explores the more horror-based end of the genreOffers a detailed discussion of the development of zombie televisionProvides a detailed examination of Richard Mathesons I Am Legend, including the novel, the script, the adaptations and the BBFCs response to Mathesons script

Omen has vanished from Augury and no one knows where he’s gone. Harmoni and her team will have to perform a rescue mission for the vampire. His mind was already unstable, thanks to his addiction to Harm’s blood. Things change dramatically for the worse during his absence. The balance of power is about to shift, which won’t go down well with their boss at all. Tate Franklin and the remaining rogue squads are still on the run. They’ve been chipping away at the Aion Corp bases as they’d been ordered. Tate knows their days are numbered. Harmoni’s hold over him is slowly slipping. He can only pray that he’ll survive the nightmare she’d put him through and that he can escape from the net that’s closing around him. Harmoni struck a bargain with Enoch that they would both perform a task to build their alliance. She needs to find property that was stolen from him. Enoch has a different idea in mind. The cruelty she and her friends suffered at Aion Corps’ hands is the inspiration behind his plan. Nothing can cement a friendship faster than shared hatred of their mutual enemies. With luck, the intriguing fire demon called Phoebe will be impressed with his mission if he succeeds.

There's more than one way to keep a vampire up all night. I swore I was over clingy men—I have enough to deal with taking care of my own damn self—so I decided to give up dating until the gene pool markedly improved. But then I happened to share a toe-curling kiss with a sexy Irish vampire (What? It was an accident! My lips fell on his!), and it became obvious the problem wasn't men—the problem was human men. Unfortunately, right after my revelation about gorgeous vampires and their excellent tongue game, my "future boyfriend" disappeared. Way to make me feel unwelcome! What's a girl to do? Join V-Date, the popular vampire dating site, obviously. How else was I supposed to find my Irish delight other than to let the vampire community know I was on the hunt for him? Yeah, yeah, okay, maybe not the best idea considering there was some sort of human recruiting going on, but hey, at least he can come to my rescue now...I hope.

With a legacy stretching back into legend and folklore, the vampire in all its guises haunts the film and fiction of the twentieth century and remains the most enduring of all the monstrous threats that roam the landscapes of horror. In The Living and the Undead, Gregory A. Waller shows why this creature continues to fascinate us and why every generation reshapes the story of the violent confrontation between the living and the undead to fit new times. Examining a broad range of novels, stories, plays, films, and made-for-television movies, Waller focuses upon a series of interrelated texts: Bram Stoker's Dracula (1897); several film adaptations of Stoker's novel; F. W. Murnau's Nosferatu, A Symphony of Horror (1922); Richard Matheson's I Am Legend (1954); Stephen King's 'Salem's Lot (1975); Werner Herzog's Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979); and George Romero's Night of the Living Dead (1968) and Dawn of the Dead (1979). All of these works, Waller argues, speak to our understanding and fear of evil and chaos, of desire and egotism, of slavish dependence and masterful control. This paperback edition of The Living and the Undead features a new preface in which Waller positions his analysis in relation to the explosion of vampire and zombie films, fiction, and criticism in the past twenty-five years.
