Oh Where, O Where have the Black Vampires Gone....?
Hello and welcome to my blog! I'm an avid reader with a fierce love of Mystery novels and pretty much anything supernatural. Even before the introduction of the Twilight Series, I've always been facinated by the Vampire genre of fiction. Not the hard core Bram Stroker's Dracula books -- (I have to admit I've only seen the movie version). But the modernization of the Vampire story into present day. But I'm not limited to books -- television shows too! Do you remember Forever Knight? Moonlight and I have to mention the Buffy Series along with the Angel spinoff series.
But for all of the enjoyable entertainment factor, I've found myself wondering -- where are the Black Vampires? Shifting back to written fiction -- I'm on the search for Supernatural stories that feature black or at least multicultural lead characters. I'll post what I find for those who are interested as well as what I'm currently reading and my book lists.
While my reading list isn't limited to a Multi-cultural focus - I enjoying finding a good read. So sit back and join the ride. Visit often and feel free to comment. The Hunt for the Black Vampire begins now!
I'm an avid reader. I'm excited to read your reviews. I hope some of your recommendations are available in Kindle format.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog and terrific content! The colors are hot! But how can you not mention Blade as a modern black vampire???
ReplyDeleteAdrienne recommeded the Jaz Parks Series to me and I loved it. Can't wait for the next installment.
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of a black vampire since Eddie Murphy and that was the movies.
Congrats and Good luck on your blog!!
