A scientist in search of vampires ventures into space and encounters the horrifying true nature of reality. Join Jim Kowanolski, reluctant vampire, on his further adventures with his unruly teenage werewolf companions. The vampire Kainja comes face-to-face with his own origins via the nearly deranged machinations of a scientist who is also a Catholic nun.

It's an unfortunate fact that not all vampires survive immortality and now Charles must watch as yet another loved one fades. Were the intense colors and shapes of Vincent Van Gogh's paintings the visions of a madman or were they visions from another supernatural source? Two vampires, separately searching the world for another of their kind, finally reach their goals.

When Giu met the lost, damaged blind girl, he had no intention of taking her in; his thought shad been more on the subject of feeding. Can the certainly of advice given in youth succor the pain of years of watching a dear friend pine for a vampire you convinced her never really existed?
