[King's Blood 00] • The 3-Book King’s Blood Vampire Saga
The first three books in the bestselling "King's Blood" series by P.J. Day, including:
VAMPIRE REVEALED
Jack King is a postmodern vampire who’s assimilated into contemporary American life and upper middle-class culture. He works from home for a software company. And, except for his need to drink blood and avoid sunlight, he lives a successful, if routine, life. Until he meets Holly. Holly, a commercial photographer, is the blonde whom Jack wants to impress. She’s smart, attractive and they click. She’s also mortal, which means he can’t tell her his true nature or—game over! This also means Jack must hold his bloodlust in check around Holly. Their first date is a debacle, but he wants to see her again. Just when Jack sets up a second date with Holly, his employer sends him and his co-worker, Ted, to Hong Kong to deal with a big client’s issues. Unfortunately, the problem is more complicated than they anticipated. Their business contacts in Hong Kong have a dangerous plan of action. One that could have dire consequences. As Jack and Ted team up with them, Jack’s blood-deprived vampire body threatens to reveal his true nature. Jack and Ted need to take care of company business before it’s too late. But will they? And will Jack be able to control his vampire instincts—or will he blow his cover? Join Jack King in KING’S BLOOD, a wry and darkly funny sci-fi / fantasy thriller series that is packed with international settings, sophisticated plot twists, and intelligent, original characters.
VAMPIRE UNLEASHED
Jack King, postmodern vampire and software expert, is still in Hong Kong on a business trip that’s turning into a spy versus spy adventure. Unexpectedly, his would-be girlfriend, Holly, is in Hong Kong, too, and wants to meet up. Will their second date be a comedy of errors like the first one? Can Jack hold his vampire hunger in check when Holly’s at her most vulnerable? Things with Jack’s business trip begin to spiral out of control when Ted, Jack’s co-worker and translator, goes missing. This means Jack has to deal with the worsening business debacle without his right-hand man—it’s getting scary, the things he’ll have to do to save the company. When Jack finds himself in a compromising situation, he discovers that his adversaries play rough. Very rough. In the struggle between hiding his vampirism and tipping his hand, Jack finds himself in a conundrum. He needs to feed, but the most dangerous thing he can do now is unleash himself completely and go full-on vampire. Will Jack survive this business trip gone wild?
VAMPIRE DESCENT
On his worst business trip ever, Jack King’s true nature as an American vampire has been revealed to his diabolical adversaries—a group of evil scientists who want to learn what makes vampires tick. Now, there’s just one thing Jack needs to do. Run! Betrayed and gravely wounded, Jack goes on the lam in China with the help of a mysterious friend. However, he quickly discovers that his tentative freedom will come at a price. Separated from Holly and worried about her, Jack follows the lead of his mystical guides to what he hopes is the path to a ticket home. Alas, he descends into a counterculture where he must choose his path with care. And, if he tells the whole truth, he may lose everything and everyone he holds dear. Will Jack be perceived as a monster, or will he learn more about vampirism than he ever wanted to know? Will Jack ever see Holly again? As his enemies begin to close in, will Jack become entangled in an uprising that could mean the end of his existence?
“Hip. Relevant. Darkly funny. Day's vampires offer a unique perspective on what it means to be human. A fantastic new series.”
