Publisher Description
Mortimer Moorecook, retired Wall Street raider, avid collector, is losing his fight against cancer. With weeks to live, a package arrives at the door of his hillside mansion—an artifact he paid millions for…a hominoid skull with elongated teeth, discovered in a farmer's field in the Romanian countryside. With Shanna, his beautiful research assistant looking on, he sinks the skull's razor sharp fangs into his neck, and immediately goes into convulsions.
A rural hospital. A slow night in the ER. Until Moorecook arrives strapped to a gurney, where he promptly codes and dies.
Four well-known horror authors pool their penchants for scares and thrills, and tackle one of the greatest of all legends, with each writer creating a unique character and following them through a vampire outbreak in a secluded hospital.
The goal was simple: write the most intense novel they possibly could. Which they did. A Word of Warning: Within this story, you will find no black capes, no satin-lined coffins, no brooding heartthrobs who want to talk about your feelings. Forget sunlight and stakes. Throw out your garlic and your crosses. This is the Anti-Twilight.

Sonic exuberance!
I absolutely LOVED this! As is now expected with all of Kilborn’s works, I new I was in for something special with its own unique brand of depravity; mixed with hilarity & intrigue. This work most certainly bears the mark of Kilborn & his exceptional blend of genre: horror/action/comedy/thriller/blow-your-mind-out-of-your-a**! (A mix of themes I’ve come to know & love). Additionally, the collaborating Authors have more than kept up with Kilborn’s pace in this one. They’ve brought their own little something in narrative weaponry to keep the flames of this roller coaster of a tale burning high & hard! If you’re a horror fan, & can appreciate a performance laced with a myriad of macabre & derangement for your listening pleasure... than I highly advise you to swan dive into this one! 5 star excellence; sonic exuberance. Thank you!
