I'll kick off this blog with something that showed up on my reports listing this morning. Someone ordered "Underdead." I naturally clicked to see what it is, since it didn't sound like the usual ergonomic gardening tools, "How to Add $500,000 to the Value of Your Home Without Spending a Dime" manuals, butterfly night lites, and the like.
So anyway, it's a book.
I'm a book fan, so cheers for readers everywhere, but since horror sqwiks me (yes, I frequently make up words--you'll get used to it), I've got to drop this one in my "Amazed at Amazon" pile (can blogs "pile"?) . Here's the description in case you're not so easily sqwiked (and once I make up a word, I use it over and over... as they say, use it five times and it's yours!):
"Underdead By Liz Jasper Science teacher Jo Gartner thinks teaching geology to hormonal pre-teens is deadly...until she is bitten by an inept vampire and becomes Underdead all the problems of being a vampire, none of the perks. When she finds a body on her classroom floor with teeth marks in his neck, she must figure out whodunnit before her Underdead secret gets out. But she's running out of time. The detective in charge of the case is dogging her every move, her vampire traits are evolving in new and embarrassing ways, and someone wants Jo dead...the traditional way!"
One does wonder what the difference is between underdead and undead. I suppose genre experts can explain it (I patiently await for comments from genre experts).The book just came out last month, so if you've been dying for a new vampire novel, I guess this one's for you:
Underdead by Liz Jasper
