Give me vampires, werewolves and don't forget the romance. I've been reading vampire stories for thirty years and yes, that was way before they were popular. Robert McCammon and The Wolf's Hour got me hooked on werewolves as well. Now angels, demons and even zombies (thought I would never go there) fill my bookshelves. My world of vampires includes werewolves but you never know what lurks around the corner. Book I is Fang Chronicles: Amy's Story and Book II Is Fang Chronicles: Emily's Story. In real life I'm a police officer although that probably sounds scary now. I write about my adventures of becoming an officer in my 40's under the name Suzie Ivy Views: 29
The Chaos Space Marines of the Iron Warriors Legion, long renowned as the masters of siege warfare, find the tables turned as they become the target of a massive ork invasion.About the AuthorThe blazing wastelands of Arizona, home to rattlesnakes, gila monsters, and other unpleasant reptiles such as C. L. Werner. A scheming, twisted little desert rat, he is continually dreaming up new and imaginative rule interpretations of the many tabletop war games he can often be discovered dabbling with. When not finding new ways to ensure the dominion of the Horned Rat, C. L. Werner busies himself with a vast library of horror and sci-fi films and an equally extensive collection of mystery and fantasy books. His pen has been responsible for such characters as the infamous bounty hunter Brunner, the cunning sorcerer Thyssen Krotzigk, the ruthless witch hunter Mathias Thulmann, and skaven fifth columnist Skrim Gnaw-tail. Like Brunner, it seems there are no creatures too vile for C. L. Werner to have dealings with and he is currently rumored to be haunting old Sylvanina graveyards in search of 'fresh' material for further tales of dark adventure in the grim Warhammer world.

How do you trap someone in a lie? For centuries, all manner of truth-seekers have used the lie detector. In this eye-opening book, Geoffrey C. Bunn unpacks the history of this device and explores the interesting and often surprising connection between technology and popular culture.Lie detectors and other truth-telling machines are deeply embedded in everyday American life. Well-known brands such as Isuzu, Pepsi Cola, and Snapple have advertised their products with the help of the "truth machine," and the device has also appeared in countless movies and television shows.
