Vampires. One thing you must know before I get to the review; I hate vampires. More to the point, I hate the current "vampire craze". Especially when there are multiple fiction books out on the market that are simply thinly veiled teen angst/romance novels, targeted to a demographic that is very vulnerable to flattery and "someday my prince will come".That being said, I had feared that this book was going to be more of . T. Hastings said Loved it!. Besides being really well written, this author is very knowledgeable about real Vampyres, and the historical/mythological vampires. He does a good job tying the two together, as well. If you want a good book on Real Vampires or Psychic Vampires, this is a great investment.. I highly recommend it. Cat Pyne Myth and reality are both well covered in this book. I'm a huge fan of real vampires and the modern vampire community, and this book gives a good overview of real vampires, with a few details that cannot be found elsewhere.
From the shadowy coffin of Dracula to the high school hero Buffy the Vampire Slayer to the love story of Edward and Bella of Twilight fame, vampires have fascinated humans for centuries. The Wesier Field Guide to Vampires provides a handbook not only to mythical and historical legends, but also to the modern vampire, their community, and the science behind modern vampire feeding. Learn how to recognize a true vampire, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to tell if you are a vampire. Includes a glossary of who's who in the vampire world, and top vampire terms.
