Download or read book The Secret History of Vampires written by Claude Lecouteux and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A look at the forgotten ancestors of the modern-day vampire, many of which have very different characteristics • Looks at the many ancestoral forms of the modern vampire, including shroud eaters, appesarts, and stafi • Presents evidence for the reality of this phenomenon from pre-19th-century newspaper articles and judicial records Of all forms taken by the undead, the vampire wields the most powerful pull on the modern imagination. But the countless movies and books inspired by this child of the night who has a predilection for human blood are based on incidents recorded as fact in newspapers and judicial archives in the centuries preceding the works of Bram Stoker and other writers. Digging through these forgotten records, Claude Lecouteux unearths a very different figure of the vampire in the many accounts of individuals who reportedly would return from their graves to attack the living. These ancestors of the modern vampire were not all blood suckers; they included shroud eaters, appesarts, nightmares, and the curious figure of the stafia, whose origin is a result of masons secretly interring the shadow of a living human being in the wall of a building under construction. As Lecouteux shows, the belief in vampires predates ancient Roman times, which abounded with lamia, stirges, and ghouls. Discarding the tacked together explanations of modern science for these inexplicable phenomena, the author looks back to another folk belief that has come down through the centuries like that of the undead: the existence of multiple souls in every individual, not all of which are able to move on to the next world after death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I´d never really given much thought as to the precise moment that I´d fall in love with the person that I would one day give up my humanity for or to the myth about vampires being real and if someone had told me then that I´d not only discover the truth but that I would fall completely and undeniably in love with a vampire I would have told them that they were crazy. Vampires are some urban legend that people use to explain things that otherwise have no rational explanation but Lucian is a vampire and he is very real and everything that I could ever want or need and so much more. Lucian is so completely in love with me that he would die for me or kill for me if it was needed and that scares me a little. Unfortunately for us he carries with him a deep, dark secret that he´s been hiding from everyone for years. A secret that could very well destroy us both. Vampires from Lucian´s past are hunting him and now that he has devoted his immortal life to me they have finally found him and will stop at nothing to punish him for his past crimes. I love Lucian more than I thought someone was capable of loving another person. But then there’s Matt who is a vampire spy and has come here to find Lucian and create even more problems for us than we can handle. Matt is the most forth-coming vampire that I’ve ever met and maybe that’s what draws me to him but whatever Matt’s charm is ----- it has captured me, we share a connection that Lucian and I don´t and every time that Matt is near me it is becoming impossible for me to resist him any longer. I´ve finally admitted to myself that I’m in love with him and then there is my best friend Josh who is a human and whom I’ve also fallen in love with recently so now I’m caught in the middle of this mess and soon I’ll have to choose between them. In the meantime I´m caught in the middle of a mess with Lucian and a vampire named Michael from his past out for revenge who will stop at nothing to hurt Lucian including turning my friend Jill into a vampire and her hatred for me could easily end up getting me killed. Now I can only hope that Lucian can find me before my captor has a chance to replace my life with an immortal one full of darkness and blood. I don´t know if I´ll be able to choose between the two vampires and the human who are competing for my heart and if I’ll survive what has happened to me or if I´m doomed to spend forever as a vampire with the evil vampire who came back from the past looking to destroy Lucian‘s new life. Follow my story and see who will survive the events that unfold in Vampire Secrets----- a story of what happens when a vampire who has a dark past to hide, a vampire with another motive, and a human who is just trying to stay alive fall in love with a human girl who has everything to live for and possibly everything to lose including friends, family, love and possibly the ultimate sacrifice that a human can give --- my soul.

When Violet inexplicably wakes thousands of years after a nuclear holocaust, she finds the world very different. Fae exist now. They're vicious, animalistic monsters who pervert magic and can morph into any shape-including vampires. They hoard the bounty of the new world, and keep humans banished to the wasteland. At least, that's what the humans of today have told her. Determined to make up for an unforgivable mistake in her past, she becomes a covert assassin and seeks revenge for her human brethren. And she's good at it. But when the thing she hunts saves her life, injuring himself in the process... her crystal clarity suddenly becomes blurry. Vampires are meant to be monsters, not protectors... not charismatic, annoyingly handsome and loyal and... everything. Indigo is a Fae Guardian, and a ruthless vampire protector of Elphyne. The Order has tasked him with finding a human with deadly secrets before the unhinged Unseelie Queen, or the fanatical human leader, can exploit her. They chose him for one reason, and one reason only - the taste of human blood does things to him. Addictive, dark, insatiable things. And when he catches Violet's scent, they know he'll do everything in his power to covet her and keep her safe. But Indigo hides his own shameful secret in the shadows of his heart, and if it ever comes to light, Violet will never trust him. She'll kill him.

If you love your books full of page turning action, romantic tension, and world building you can get lost in, then this series is for you.
