Cast of Vampires
Dylan Band, Willow’s fourhundred-year-old father, has a roving eye for the ladies and an unquenchable appetite for blood, fine wine and good music.
With his own band The Others’ Blood, he hopes to conquer the Indie charts. Meanwhile, his rocky marriage to Alice is keeping him busier than he’d like to be. If only he could worm his way back into her affections…
Long suffering Alice Band harbours a deadly secret – one that could cost Willow her afterlife! Who are the sinister men coming after Alice’s only child?
Alice’s past is catching up with her and there is nowhere to hide…
Willow’s Great Uncle suddenly appears on the scene. A social climber and ambitious vampire with a high standing in the clan, Darcullus plays his own secret game of cat and mouse with Willow and her mother. What exactly is his game and why did he call Willow a Child of Light?
As right hand man to Uncle Dracullus, ancient vampire Hartmann seems to have his own agenda when it comes to dealing with Willow. When Willow turns the table on this henchman with the wingpsan of an ordinary Pipistrelle, Hartmann finds himself in trouble with his master…and in captivity in Mr. Nibble’s old hamster cage! Willow’s afinity with animals will cost her dearly on this occasion – this bat is not for the taming!

I think I know these people.

surely everybody’s got an Eddie in his life…your friendly neighbourhood axe murderer with a soft hearted approach to fluffy little animals! Sadly my drawing skills aren’t up to much, but then the pics are supposed to look like Willow’s, an 11-year-old’s pictures.

I like them. My drawing is atrocious – somewhere on par with my singing. Stop spreading rotten rumours about Eddie, it isn’t nice.

..but true! He baked his wife in a pie..actually 150 to be precise. Just what the woman deserved.

The chap was only doing a bit of baking.

I really must sit down and invent some more vampire recipes for the next book. Hm, we’ve had cured vicar, how about roasted banker with chesnut stuffing, followed by flambe-ed insurance salesman with cherries and vanilla sauce? All washed down with a goblet of bloodwine, of course.

That all sounds must appealing. Do you do one with politicians?

Marinated in BBQ sauce overnight and grilled over a moderate flame they aren’t nearly as tough and stringy as people would have us believe. In fact, some Tories are quite palatable, which must be because they get so well pickled during their lifetime.
