Pete, Drinker of Blood

Pete Tyler is an average blue-collar guy, working nights in Hollywood. Much to his chagrin, he's also a vampire. He tries to stay out of trouble, lives alone, sticks to his diet, and avoids the other vampires prowling the City of Angels. Unfortunately, Pete's simple life goes haywire when he falls for Angie, the cute bartender at a Sunset Strip dive. Then sinister vampire lord Carson Fitzgerald returns, the vamps start losing their heads, and Fitzgerald wants Pete at his side. Pete just wants to save the girl and maybe taste a cheeseburger one last time, but in sunny California, nothing's ever that easy for a creature of the night. Scott S. Phillips, author of SQUIRREL EYES and TALES OF MISERY AND IMAGINATION, trains his monster eye and rock n' roll style on his beloved La-La Land. The freaks come out at night in this blood-spattered, sweet-n-salty taste of life after death, SoCal style. Dark, action-packed and full of Phillips' trademark wit and pop culture wisdom, PETE, DRINKER OF BLOOD is the cure for your restless nights and midnight cravings. "Compulsively readable and laugh-aloud funny" -- Ian Tregillis, author of THE COLDEST WAR
