Carrion ComfortCarrion Comfort by Dan Simmons
Buy used from: £1.75
Carrion Comfort didn't get the recognition it deserved. Absolutely tremendous work from Dan Simmons about mind vampires. 900+ pages of energy I normally get through in 3 days by the pool!
NightwalkerNightwalker by Thomas Tessier
Buy new: £4.80 / Used from: £2.82
I read this back in the 80s. Back then it was a new slant on werewolves. Probably inspired American W in London.
The Wolf's HourThe Wolf's Hour by Robert R. McCammon
Buy used from: £8.96
Loved this: Russian werewolf fights for the Brits against Hitler. Who said imagination was dead?
Speaks the NightbirdSpeaks the Nightbird by Robert McCammon
Buy used from: £5.00
McCammon returns from the wilderness with this huge tale set in 1699 about a witch trial. Brilliant and satsifying.
Twilight EyesTwilight Eyes by Dean Koontz
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £0.01
Koontz stories roll into one another like big red buses. You can't tell one from the other., This was different - a boy who could see goblins disguised as people who revel in tragedy.
The Saga of Darren Shan Box SetThe Saga of Darren Shan Box Set by Darren Shan
Buy used from: £90.40
Darren Shan's marvellous tales of vampire armies, eclipses JK Rowling for pure magic of storytelling in a dark and macabre way.
SavageSavage by Richard Laymon
Buy new: £6.96 / Used from: £0.01
My favourite Laymon book - teenager follows Jack The Ripper to USA. Rites of passage + typical Laymon butchery
Fevre Dream (Fantasy Masterworks)Fevre Dream (Fantasy Masterworks) by George R.R. Martin
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £0.75
Great vampire novel set on Mississippi riverboat. New edition now in print.
ReplayReplay by Ken Grimwood
Buy used from: £0.94
An unknown classic. What would happen if you lived your life again, and again...trying to avoid those mistakes you made first time round. Finding there are others like you?
RaptureRapture by Thomas Tessier
Buy used from: £1.44
A gentle opening gives way to a full blown obsession with tragic consequences. Tessier has tried and tested this format, but this first one is brilliant.
