New Reviews for DARK THIRST, vamp-romance by Sara Reinke

What's new in the worlds of author Sara Reinke? Fantastic new reviews for Dark Thirst, the first in The Brethren vampire-romance series from Zebra Books, available for only $3.99 in bookstores and online now!

LoveVampires.com calls it "fast-paced ... an extraordinary book with a lot going for it...enjoyable reading for anyone who is looking for something outside of the usual vampire romance offerings and conventions."

Vampire Romance Books says Dark Thirst is "a solid book that efficiently plants the seeds of a promising series."

ParaNormal Romance reviewer Deborah Macgillivray declares, "Reinke creates a vivid world, mixing the vampire clan with old country codes, gives you a hero that is white, a heroine black, basically saying she is not going to follow the patterns of all the writers before her. With this impressive novel, the author boldly cuts a vivid debut."

And Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews gave it 5 out of 5 Stars. "Reinke writes in a smooth flowing style that I found extremely easy to read... I eagerly look forward to the next segment of this mafia-style, vampire saga."

In Dark Thirst, Brandon Noble is one of the Brethren, an ancient clan of ruthless vampires. Horrified by his birthright, Brandon shuns the ritual of the first kill, earning his family's lasting wrath. When he finds love with a human woman named Angelina -- forbidden among the Brethren -- his fate is sealed. Can Brandon protect Angelina from his enemies -- and his own dark thirsts?

PublishAmerica Presents The Heart of the Sword: Shallin Awakes by Franklyn Thomas Jr.

Frederick, MD October 12, 2007 -- PublishAmerica is proud to present The Heart of the Sword: Shallin Awakes by Franklyn Thomas Jr. of Kissimmee, Florida.

The stories Franklyn tells are from a time long past, but not forgotten. A time when dragons walked the land's and filled the skies. When the sword decided who lived and who saw not another day. When kingdoms would rise and fall, and men who were once great turn to evil and forsake the ones they called friend.

It's time was long ago.

He awoke from a nightmare, realizing he could no longer hide from his destiny, the task of finishing what his father started some time ago: stopping one called Sillack and the evil he planned on releasing. He did not know how to accomplish this quest, knowing only that his father had Shallin. In his heart he knew she was his only chance at stopping such evil.

Forming a team unmatched, they move across the land, evening the score. In their travels, they find people willing to stand with this young man, ready to fight. They meet mystical creatures, some trying to help, while others are trying to stop them at all costs.

This story will show you powers of good and evil never imagined, taking your breath away with every turn. Shallin shows you, when given the chance, what strength of faith brings to all who employ it.

He is Sanch, son of Lackshin.

Franklyn Thomas Jr. was born in April of 1975 on the island of St. Croix, to Jacklin Lindsey and Franklyn Thomas Sr. As a boy, his imagination separated him from everyone around him and started him on this journey. It wasn't an easy journey, yet he wouldn't change any of it. It's made him who he is today.

The Powder Merchant book description

What kind of man is above the law, beyond suspicion, madly brilliant and seeking life everlasting?

Alexander Volga, a distinguished billionaire entrepreneur, veils himself in respectability, hiding a murky lineage, a uniquely devious and sharp mind, and literally millions of destroyed lives. Believing he once lived as a deity on ancient Atlantis, he re-creates the mythical land in Virtual Reality! Sensing storm clouds of retribution approaching, Alexander prepares for his last, best trick, an audacious attempt to have his mind live "on-line" after body death!

An unexplainable force draws sultry, no-nonsense Harriet O'Keefe to Alexander. She's the first female head of a new drug enforcement agency, CRUNCH (Crime and Racketeering Unit of Narcotics-Cocaine and Heroin). Harriet, whose job is to track down the big chieftains of the cocaine and heroin world-the Merchant's of Powder-finds herself dangerously close to falling for Alexander's lure, the most wanted and insidious man against whom she's ever matched wits as she races to topple his empire and ego.

With tensions mounting from all sides, and uncertain of where loyalty remains, Alexander, for the first time, sets a Machiavellian plan in motion unsure of its evil outcome. But his enemies better check their life-insurance policies, and Harriet O'Keefe, her heart.

David Orange writes for several wine and food magazine publications. He is also an accomplished Broadway, film and television actor. Orange, part owner of a New York City-based wine importing company, divides his time between New York and Sunny Isles Beach, Florida.
