Synopsis

BLOOD TRIAD is a collection of three novellas from the Blood & Ancient Scrolls series by Raven Belasco, giving a more intimate view into the lives of some of the am’r (the vampires’ name for themselves) that readers have met along the way. Standalone novellas, each story can be enjoyed without having previously read any of the series."There's a very important thing that Raven Belasco wants you to remember about the undead, and in her novella collection Blood Triad, she gets into it, finding the pulse of storytelling behind some of our culture's favorite monsters." — John Scalzi"Blood Triad is a must-read for fans of vampire fiction and historical fantasy, especially those who value meticulously researched narratives that deliver immersive world-building, nuanced character dynamics and diverse perspectives, and thought-provoking explorations of love and resilience." — Publisher's Weekly BookLife"Three bite-sized vampire stories that make for a tasty sampler. A powerful, timely read. All three stories feature well-developed characters, impressive emotional intensity, and a dark, lyrical writing style." — KIRKUS ReviewsBlood Triad sweeps readers across eras and locations, from the ancient Norsemen and Picts of the 900s, to the turbulent colonial history of Haiti, to Prohibition-era Philadelphia, infusing each of these periods with her unique vampiric lore. Belasco’s action scenes are brisk, and her carefully-researched characters are memorable. Her vampires are so much more than the violence of their history—within their bloody hearts, they retain their humanity. — Tara Campbell, author of City of Dancing Gargoyles and TreeVolution

Vlad Dracula former "Impaler" of enemies impales "Superhero" librarian! This read is, to me, "off the charts" amazing.

Thrilling and captivating read – make time for this book! I don’t have a lot of time to write reviews of books, I barely have time to even read them right now! But I had to stop and take a moment to review this book. It might look like a typical “paranormal romance” book. And it has lots of romance (a......more
