Book Blurb

It's the one place in the universe where a vampire can bask in full sunlight without danger of death -- a red star, deep in open space. Kristof's newly purchased ship will take vampires there, to experience the novelty of constant day. But he himself is afraid to take that last step into the light. Until Tomas arrives to show him just how arousing the sun can be.


First edition published by Changeling Press in July 2008.

Book Review

While this story is super short, it offers a tantalizing view of a vampire named Kristof who has finally found a way to see sunlight again. But even though he knows it is perfectly safe, it isn’t easy for him to forget decades of fear. The author has managed to capture the mood perfectly, including a quick peek at the history of the red sun’s discovery, and I was captured from the start. In the end, Kristof needs a little help from Tomas – who has no fear at all and is more than willing to help Kristof overcome his issues.

If you like short stories that contain a whole world inside just a few pages, if you think that a vampire hungering for sunlight deserves to find a way to get what he wants, and if you’re looking for a read that is as hot as it is thought provoking, then you will probably like this short story.
