Under the Fang The Horror Writers of America Present Robert R McCammon Robert Petitt Richard Laymon Ed Gorman Thomas F Monteleone 9780671695736 Books

Robert R McCammon is one of my favorite authors, I have practically all of his books and have enjoyed most of them. When I found that he was the editor of this collection of vampire tales, I had to buy it.
This is a collection of short stories from various authors, each one a separate tale unlike the Horror Writers of America collection called Freak Show, which was every author writing a chapter in one continuous tale.
The premise of these stories is what would happen when the vampires won. In all reality, I didnt care much for most of these tales. I am a vampire purist, and do not care for tales where *they* want to be like *us*. This entire trend towards vampires walking in daylight and having emotions and being scientists and conducting experiments and flying helicopters and holding courtroom dramas is nothing more than the response of the masses to the erotic, appealing nature of the vampire. To the purist, it would be just as silly to have Zombies suddenly stop craving fresh human flesh and to begin to hold decoupage classes.
The only times I can remember this working is in George R.R. Martins Fevre Dream and Whitley Stribers The Hunger. In The Hunger, Miriam was never actually called a Vampire though, and in Fevre Dream the only Vampire that wanted to change was hunted by both humans and by his own species for his aberrations. In all of these stories, the only one that was really gripping was The Miracle Mile. Enjoy.
The Miracle Mile by Robert R McCammon - The last vacation before the end of humanity
Dancing Nitely by Nancy A Collins - the hottest new club in the Vampire world
Stokers Mistress by Clint Collins - In a new world ruled by the Undead, the last traitor is revealed.
Does The Blood Line Run On Time by Sidney Williams and Robert Petitt - A commando type operation from a human familiar who turns traitor to order to rescue the young female victims of those who betrayed him.
Red Eve by Al Sarrantonio - This entry is an extremely boring and difficult to follow tale of a storytelling vampire.
We Are Dead Together by Charles De Lint - A tale of Gypsy revenge on those who feast on them.
Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage by Chet Williamson - Decent story of the last survivors and how far one will go for love.
Advocates by Suzy McKee Charnas and Chelsea Quinn Yarbro - Rather boring vampire courtroom story with no conclusion.
Special by Richard Laymon - tale of human betrayer to their vampire owners, in the name of love.
Herrenrasse by J.N. Williamson - One man's hunt for the killer of his entire family. Who will win out in the end?
Duty by Ed Gorman - Would your neighborhood hate you if you were the only one left that could do the right thing?
Midnight Sun by Brian Hodge - An almost agreement, a betrayal, and the end of hope as a young girl stands up as a hero.
A Bloodsucker by David N. Meyer III - A giver of gifts or a slave master?
Prodigal Sun by Thomas F. Monteleone - Another fairly pointless muse of vampires desiring humanity.
There Are No Nightclubs In East Palo Alto by Clifford V. Brooks - Another story of how they want to be like us.
Juice by Lisa W. Cantrell - Ranching human cattle
Behind Enemy Lines by Dan Perez - The last sunrise for a reluctant vampire

Under the Fang The Horror Writers of America Present Robert R McCammon Robert Petitt Richard Laymon Ed Gorman Thomas F Monteleone 9780671695736 Books Reviews

Under the Fang presents 17 stories that, while all separate and unique, take place in the same world, a world where vampires have taken over the globe. What happens when humans have little place in the world except to be cattle? Some of the stories are presented from the point of view of the now victorious vampires, many more are from the point of view of humans.
Most are very well written with new and novel plots.
A list of the stories is
The Miracle Mile by Robert McCammon
Dancing Nightly by Nancy Collins
Stoker?s Mistress by Clint Collins
Does the Blood Line Run on Time by Williams and Petitt
Red Eve by Al Sarrantonio
We are Dead Together by Charles dr lint
Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage by Chet Williamson
Advocates by Charnas and Yarbro
Special by Richard Laymon
Herrenrasse by J.N. Williamson
Duty by Ed Gorman
Midnight Sun by Brian Hodge
A Bloodsucker by David Mayer III
Prodigal Sun by Tomas Monteleone
There are no Night Clubs in East Palo Alto by Cliff Brooks
Juice by Lisa Cantrell
Behind Enemy Lines by Dan Perez
Of these, Behind Enemy Lines, Special, and Calm Sea, Prosperous Voyage all stand out as the jewels of this collection.
Whether you just like a well written anthology or you're a fan of vampire fiction, this book is a wonderful addition to any library!
Item as described, easy purchase, shipping as promised, and communication was good.
If you like a darker look at the vampires and what would happen if they won this is a good book but NOT for children
A really good collection of stories here. You will not be disappointed.
what i expected. if you are a vampire fan, this book is for you. some of the stories were better than others.
This is the 3rd time I've acquired this book...the previous ones were taken after being borrowed and never returned....usually to the tune "Wow, I really liked it! I think it covers a wide range of writing styles from established authors in the genre to unknowns. Vampire fiction has sorta fallen from favor with me....The zombie rage is still going, but cooling.....This book, however, reminds me how sinister it can be.
This book is old. I never thought I'd find a copy. But I did. Copy in excellent condition and reasonably priced.
