Reseña del libro "Sovereign Blood Feud (en Inglés)"
An edgy debut novel of lust, suspense, violence and horror. The first in a series. Pray that this ancient vampire never reunites with his queen . . . Two powerful vampires, Draden and Leandra, are bound by a centuries of passion and separated by human guardians sworn to never let them find each other again . . . Millennia ago, the world knew the terror of these two dark lords when joined in their desire for blood, dominion, and each other. When their mortal subjects rose up against them, they found destroying the two vampiric masters more difficult than they had ever anticipated; the best they could do was separate them . . . in distance and time. Draden cannot remember his beginnings; all he knows is his hunger for blood and for the mysterious woman who haunts his dreams. When the discovery of a relic awakens undead memories, he begins a journey that will ignite old flames and new ambitions, coursing the blood through his cold heart and bringing to life the worst fears of humankind and a war that threatens civilization. Excerpts: Draden: "Once the life has left her, I let go of her neck, and her limp body plunges to the ground, landing atop her deceased lover. I take a moment to gaze at this motionless corpse of a beauty whom I've just robbed of her very life and say to myself . . . What a waste." Leandra: "I can hear the soldiers outside of our door, fighting with the soldiers trying to get inside. Our men easily kill them, and the blood runs thick as it seeps underneath the door and over to our naked bodies. It covers us, which only increases our appetite." When they ruled the old world: "IT'S BEEN A hundred and sixteen years since I left a peasant town in smoke and rubble. Here in Sicily, where I declared that I would never fall in love, or allow myself to be loved again, I've met someone. A young woman named Leandra. She's like me, a darkling. Both of us bloodsuckers, both immortals, but most of all, we've noticed that while we're together, our abilities are three times as powerful. Since we've been together, an eclipse has formed, allowing us to walk about the city anytime we want. We are gods, and as such, we should be worshipped." And when the guardians find them this time: "I see two men throwing Leandra and our daughter, Kaelen, into the back of a white van and shutting the door. When he steps around the van, I see that it's Lorenzo and his crew. The first van pulls away while Lorenzo walks around the other. He looks up and notices me standing in the middle of the street, and I see the look of panic overrun his face. I get so furious that every sensation leaves me, and the only thing I feel is the uncontrollable urge to kill." C.B. Rogers lives and works in the mountains of north Georgia. His next novel will be published in trade paper and ebook at Amazon in summer 2013.
