Book excerpt: Considered an instant collectable, Dark Bites Volume 1 is a horror lover's guide to your next favorite dark indulgence. This book transports you into the minds of the creators we crave who share the finer points of their craft along with intriguing stories behind the worlds they’ve built. The collection also includes a bevy of in-depth film and book reviews covering the work of: - Gregory Lamberson (JOHNNY GRUESOME) - With Interview - F. Paul Wilson (The Last Christmas: A Repairman Jack Novel) - With interview - Thomas F. Monteleone (Night Train) - With Interview - Jeff Strand (Cold Dead Hands) - Richard Christian Matheson (Brothers In Arms) - With Interview - And so much More! “Rick Hipson is that rare talent who conducts his interviews with sheer professionalism. His questions are penetrating, original, and sometimes surprising. His reviews reveal a person who clearly cares about his duty to write with clarity, perceptivity, and a deep understanding of his subject’s place in genre history. His ability to recognize such subtleties as style and influences marks him as more than a cut above the usual reviewer.” - Thomas F. Monteleone, 5-time winner of the Bram Stoker Award “Dark Bites is a book full of reviews and interviews swimming in the horror culture. If you’d like to discover a new movie, book, or find out the thoughts and secrets behind them, this is for you. Full disclosure: I’m in it. Twice. And I’m the least interesting person in there. LOL! Rick has a way of asking questions that dig deeper than other interviewers. He does his homework, he looks into past projects and makes sure you find out what’s coming next. This is a collection of reviews and interviews that have appeared in other locations such as the Dark Bites website and others, but you will also find some new work in here as well. Personally, after reading one of the reviews, I went to find the short film right away. Rick is honest, and I know immediately if that work he’s talking about is “for me” or not. Covering a range of topics, if you’re into horror and looking for anything ranging from schlocky to serious, zombies or psychological, Rick Hipson won’t steer you wrong.” - Dean Italiano author of Pain Machine, The Starving Queen “If you love horror, in any capacity, I highly recommend this book of interviews and articles that has been lovingly and painstakingly put together by Rick Hipson. It’s not often that I am asked to review non-fiction material but his was well-worth my time. Full of amazing in-depth reviews of books and movies, along with interviews with so many well-known authors, producers, actors and directors that I cannot name them all here.” - Candace Nola (Uncomfortably Dark)

She heads to the local animal shelter, expecting a hot news tip, which she gets in the form of a major police cover-up . . . for a ring of soul-sucking vampires out to take over Seattle. So much for saving her credibility. And if that isn't bad enough, she gets talked into adopting a cat and finds she's allergic to it. A cat that turns out to be a shapeshifter who claims to be an immortal vampire slayer on the prowl for the same corrupt cops. Her first thought: seek professional help. But as Susan's drawn into Ravyn's dark and dangerous world, she comes to realize that there's a lot more at stake than just her defunct career.

Now, in order to save the people of Seattle, he's forced to confront that nightmare all over again, and to trust another woman with the secret that could destroy him. In the world of the Dark-Hunters, life is always dangerous. But never more so than now; when a very human woman can shatter their entire world with just one story.

Born before man recorded time, I lived for thousands of years believing myself to be something I’m not. Someone I’m not. Lied to and betrayed by gods, Daimons and Dark-Hunters, I’ve struggled to find my way in a world where I’ve been cursed since the moment I was prematurely ripped from my mother and planted into the womb of an innocent woman who thought me her son. Trained as a slayer and predator, I learned to fit in and stay low. To become a tool for evil. Until I was sent to kill the one woman I couldn’t. My hesitation cost her her life. Or so I thought. In an act of betrayal that makes all the others pale in comparison, I’ve learned that this world is an illusion and that my Phoebe still lives. Now I will have to travel into the very pits of Hades to try and save her, even as everyone around me attempts to steal what little soul I have left. There’s only one person at my back and I’m not sure I can trust her either, for she was born of an enemy race. Yet sometimes the road to redemption is one that singes us to our very core. And if I fail to find the answers I need to save Phoebe, more than just my wife will die. We will lose the world. Both human and Daimon.
