Book description
Jody never asked to become a vampire. But when she wakes up under an
alley Dumpster with a badly burned arm, an aching neck, superhuman
strength, and a distinctly Nosferatuan thirst, she realises the decision
has been made for her. Making the transition from the nine-to-five grind
to an eternity of nocturnal prowlings is going to take some doing,
however, and that's where C. Thomas Flood fits in. A would-be Kerouac
from Incontinence, Indiana, Tommy (to his friends) is biding his time
night-clerking and frozen turkey bowling in a San Francisco Safeway. But
all that changes when a beautiful, undead redhead walks through the door
… and proceeds to rock Tommy's life - and afterlife - in ways he never
imagined possible. Christopher Moore began writing at the age of six
and became the oldest known child prodigy when, in his early thirties,
he published his first novel. Chris enjoys cheese crackers, acid jazz,
and otter scrubbing and lives in an inaccessible island fortress in the
Pacific.
