Description

CONTAINS Blood Brute: Rise of One (Book 1), Fall of Two (Book 2), Ebb of Three (Book 3)

Capture. Destruction. Escape.

The first three books of the Blood Brute Series combine in this first volume. Follow the adventures of The Vampire Rise as he struggles with being zombie-bitten, the collapse of his coven at Owl Court, and the triangle between his love, Cypriot, and his vampyric blood match, Iskar. Under constant threat from the Warwolves, Rise wants only one thing in this ravaged world: for everything to go back to normal. For him to be left alone. For those he loves to be safe.

Blood Brute is a heart-wrenching journey in the tradition of Stephen King's The Stand and The Road by Cormac McCarthy. If you like LGBT romance, dark themes, and complex characters, then you'll love this paranormal post-apocalyptic tale.

Advance Praise

"What can I say? Vampires and Zombies?... Oh my! How can this be? Two of my favorite book character types in one book? How can this be? I asked myself, how will the vampires change when bitten? This book answers some of these questions while giving the reader thoughtful, colorful, engaging characters you will find yourself invested in. I loved every minute of this story, set in the beautiful backdrop of the English countryside! I highly recommend this book to those who enjoy sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and all things dystopian/apocalyptic! Even if you are not a zombie fan, I think you just may find yourself pleasantly surprised by this refreshingly different take on the genre!" - NETGALLEY

"Its dystopian setting proves to be refreshingly unique in many respects, which makes for a fresh read. The sun, for example, causes vampires nausea and "Blaschko lines," or stripes on the skin. The vampires in the small coven have no clue about their origins, and unlike many other fictional vamps, they're much less concerned with domination than they are with subsistence. These vampires can compel others to obedience but with severe limitations. In addition, the world's history, including the zombie event, is revealed only in pieces, as in a discussion of how it may now be the "zero times," "a tipping point in an environment, where one species will eventually outdo another."A slow-moving but offbeat take on mixed-genre horror." -KIRKUS REVIEWS
