Today is my 36th birthday (yipes!) and later this week I'll be going on a date with my son to go see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. We watched the first 6 movies over the Thanksgiving break so we're all ready to go. This is the official last day to enter the Third Rule of Bite Club contest and the winner will be announced this weekend.
It's also release day for some really good series books (hooray!). To celebrate we are having a contest and the good folks at Simon & Schuster have generously offered a copy of each book for giveaway, 2 books, 2 winners. Just leave a comment sharing either your favorite birthday memory or your ideal birthday gift and I will toss your name in my magic hat. Or if that doesn't work for you just tell me what your favorite series is and why. All the official details will follow the post.
When you're staring evil in the eye, don't forget to watch your back . . . For the first time in forever, JaynÉ Heller's life is making sense. Even if she routinely risks her life to destroy demonic parasites that prey on mortals, she now has friends, colleagues, a trusted lover, and newfound confidence in the mission she inherited from her wealthy, mysterious uncle. Her next job might just rob her of all of them. At Grace Memorial Hospital in Chicago, something is stirring. Patients are going AWOL and research subjects share the same sinister dreams. Half a century ago, something was buried under Grace in a terrible ritual, and it's straining to be free. JaynÉ is primed to take on whatever's about to be let loose. Yet the greatest danger now may not be the huge, unseen force lurking below, but the evil that has been hiding in plain sight all along—taking her ever closer to losing her body, her mind, and her soul. . . .

Zombies and Witches and Vamps . . . Oh, My! What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas—at least that's Delilah Street's hope. With Sin City's vampire and werewolf mobs wanting to cash in her chips once and for all, she's retreating with her partner Ric Montoya and half-wolfhound Quicksilver to her Kansas birthplace. Unfortunately, when it comes to finding trouble, there's no place like home. . . . It doesn't take long before Delilah realizes she's not in Vegas anymore. Zombie cowboys and spectral cattle drives are kicking up dust, the local weather girls are total witches who forecast perfect storms, and some Hollywood fanatic is recasting zombies as the greatest stars of the silver screen. And speaking of silver, Delilah's special affinity for the all-purpose monster-repellent leads her posse straight down a silver brick road—and into a notso- fun house of mirrors—putting her face-to-face with her dicey past and a mystery woman named Lilith, who's a real dead ringer for Delilah. The key word being dead.
