The vampire series, 'Necroscope', has been translated into ten languages and sold over a million copies worldwide.

Bone Music
Bone Music (1995)
Alan Rodgers
"Alan Rodgers . . . uses simple and beautiful words to tell this complex and horrific story. Really weird! Don't die until you've read Bone Music."
Night Hunter

Michael Reaves
"Hard-bitten cop vs. hard-biting vampire. A sucking good read."
Waking Brigid
Waking Brigid (2008)
Francis Clark
"It's refreshing to read a novel that's so plainly stated, so succinct and yet so vivid. Here from a writer who is well worth watching, is a locked room mystery that is more than worth unlocking!"
