I’ve always had a thing for vampires, ever since I was a kid. There are a million reasons, more than I could ever name off. I thought it might be high time for me to write a book about them. I’ve read about and seen all sorts of different versions of vampires. There are so many theories as to what they are, how they work and everything else, I figured I’d throw my hat in the ring. You may read this and think I hit the nail on the head, you may think I’m nuts, maybe a little of both. At any rate, I’m taking this opportunity to tackle a handful of the questions that I, and many others, have about vampires. Each chapter will handle a different aspect of vampires from their origins to feeding habits, sexual abilities and a lot in between. I hope that if nothing else you’ll find this book entertaining.

Those stories you hear? The ones about things that only come out at night? Things that feed on blood, feed on us? Got news for you: they’re true. Only it’s not like the movies or old man Stoker’s storybook. It’s worse. Especially if you happen to be one of them. Just ask Joe Pitt. There’s a shambler on the loose. Some fool who got himself infected with a flesh-eating bacteria is lurching around, trying to munch on folks’ brains. Joe hates shamblers, but he’s still the one who has to deal with them. That’s just the kind of life he has. Except afterlife might be better word. From the Battery to the Bronx, and from river to river, Manhattan is crawling with Vampyres. Joe is one of them, and he’s not happy about it. Yeah, he gets to be stronger and faster than you, and he’s tough as nails and hard to kill. But spending his nights trying to score a pint of blood to feed the Vyrus that’s eating at him isn’t his idea of a good time. And Joe doesn’t make it any easier on himself. Going his own way, refusing to ally with the Clans that run the undead underside of Manhattan–it ain’t easy. It’s worse once he gets mixed up with the Coalition–the city’s most powerful Clan–and finds himself searching for a poor little rich girl who’s gone missing in Alphabet City. Now the Coalition and the girl’s high-society parents are breathing down his neck, anarchist Vampyres are pushing him around, and a crazy Vampyre cult is stalking him. No time to complain, though. Got to find that girl and kill that shambler before the whip comes down . . . and before the sun comes up.
