Blood Ending: A Vampire Novel

With elements of Gothic horror, alchemy, sex magic, and science, Blood Ending chronicles the rise of master vampire Severin, his trinity of female vampires, and the obsessed love-sick alchemist Praetorious Biederbeck. As one century ends and a new one heads towards devastating war they find that the "old ways" are no longer viable—the lure of sex and blood now competes with the lure of science. Assisted by the doomed vampire bride Justine, Biederbeck chases after Severin and the Trinity through the decades. And what a chase it is!

From an ancient school of black magic to the slave auction block in Syria; from the decadent vampire society of old Vienna to Berlin's 1920s cabaret scene, a fetish club in London, the fires of Dresden, and ending in the streets of New York, these preternatural beings are affected not only by their own whims and foibles, but also by a world that is changing itself, and the state of magic, at a frenzied pace. If you're seeking a pulse- pounding, blood-drenched vampire saga, quench your thirst with Blood Ending.
