Publisher Comments:

Life in San Francisco is anything but the dream Tommy Floyd envisioned for himself. When a beautiful woman named Jody enters Tommy's life, she changes it for all eternity. Jody is a vampier who sets her sights on tommy. Their ensuing romance is filled with passion, bloodlust and, of course, an inevitable amount of blood loss.

Just another vampire romance? Hardly! It's funny and sarcastic, with characters who are just strange enough to be real. Not my favorite Christopher Moore, but It's pretty close.

This has got to be my favorite Christopher Moore book to date. I love vampires (okay well not LOVE them, but enjoy reading about them) and I enjoy Moore's humor, so the two together is just spectacular. The concept of vampires entering the world with no knowledge how to survive is brilliant - and add Moore's irreverant humor and you've got a magical mix. And a love story to boot. All of this with wit and sarcasm and irreverent over the top humor which could only come from Moore.
