Blood Bank by Tanya Huff
The Blood books center around three main characters: Vicki Nelson, a homicide cop turned private detective, her former partner Mike Celluci, who is still on the force, and vampire Henry Fitzroy, who is the illegitimate son of Henry VI and makes his living as a writer of bodice rippers. Not only are the three of them caught in a love triangle, but they are, time and again, involved in mysteries with a supernatural slant--from demons, to werewolves, to mummies--and inevitably must join forces to solve crimes and defeat supernatural enemies.Now all of Tanya Huff's short stories about Henry, Vicki, and Mike are being released in this collection entitled Blood Bank. As an added bonus for fans of the TV series, Blood Bank includes the actual screenplay for Stone Cold, the episode Tanya herself wrote for the Blood Ties series along with a special introduction by Tanya, detailing her own experiences with the show.
“An interesting departure from the many vampire books now availableIt provides an entertaining and engrossing story for leisure reading.”—Kliatt
“A suspenseful story that deals with the emotional content of the situation rather than the obvious potential for overt horror.”—Science Fiction Chronicle
“Huff has retained her humor along with her horror, her characters have continued to develop, andher plots are quirky and original.”—VOYA
“Explores the borders of death and beyond with an intensity that is only partially lightened by touches of ironic humor. Written with the author’s usual flair for realistic fantasy.” —Library Journal
Tanya Huff may have moved away from Nova Scotia when she was three years old and has spent the majority of her life in Ontario, but she still considers herself a Maritimer. She earned a degree in Radio and Television Arts from Ryerson Polytechnic on her route to the lovely rural existence she shares with her girlfriend Fiona Patton, six cats, and a chihuahua, an education she was thrilled to finally put to use while writing her new Smoke novels. Blood Price, Blood Trail, Blood Lines, Blood Pact, Blood Debt--featuring Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, romance writer, and vampire--are among the most successful of her previous twenty-three works.
