"Those that know me and follow my on-line work know that I am a
vampire fanatic. By that I mean real vampires, the undead creatures that
prey on humans for survival, not the glorified sissy boy vampires that
keep getting shoved down our throats. If you’ve read Justin’s Cronin’s
The Passage and Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan’s The Strain, you
will absolutely love The Vampire Hunters.” -- Pete Schwotzer of Famous
Monster of Filmland
Vampyrnomicon -- Within the vaults of the Smithsonian Institute lies the key to finding the Vampyrnomicon, the Book of the Undead, that contains the history and secrets of the vampires. According to legend, whoever possesses the book can establish a vampire nation on earth – or destroy the undead once and for all. With an opportunity to end the war against the vampires so close, Drake Matthews is determined to find the book. But the vampires also want the Vampyrnomicon. When Master Chiang Shih and her coven of the most powerful and dangerous vampires arrive in Washington to claim the book as their own, the hunters find themselves facing their most dangerous enemy yet. With the stakes so high, so is the ferocity of the struggle.
"Scott M. Baker's The Vampire Hunters is a gut-wrenching, fast-paced
horror thriller that takes you from the back streets of Washington to
the rat infested sewer systems below. You cheer for both the hunter and
the hunted as the author rains battle scenes with stomach turning death
and destruction around every corner." -- Fangoria
Dominion -- Lost for centuries, the Vampyrnomicon, the Book of the Undead, is unearthed and with it
the terrible secret of the vampires’ origins. The book's discovery gives vampire hunter Drake Matthews the means to defeat Chiang Shih and her nest. It also provides Chiang Shih with the knowledge required to make vampires immortal. When Chiang Shih raises an army of the undead and establishes a vampire nation in Washington D.C., she cripples Drake and his hunters. Driven by vengeance, and with his ranks swelled by unlikely allies, Drake leads the survivors back into the infested city. With the fate of humankind hanging in the balance, hunters and vampires wage the final apocalyptic battle in the streets of Washington to determine who will hold dominion over the earth.
