<p>The Black Knight Chronicles: Lots of Vampires. No Sparkles. Serious Snark.<br />
<br />
<strong>HARD DAY'S KNIGHT</strong><br />
<br />
Children are missing.<br />
The police are stumped.<br />
Halloween is coming, and an ancient evil is on the horizon.<br />
The vampires are the good guys.<br />
<br />
This is not your ordinary fall weekend in Charlotte, North Carolina. Vampire private detectives Jimmy Black and Greg Knightwood have been hired to save a client from being cursed for all eternity, but end up in a bigger mess than they ever imagined.<br />
<br />
Suddenly trapped in the middle of a serial kidnapping case, Jimmy and Greg uncover a plot to bring forth an ancient evil. Soon, they've enlisted the help of a police detective, a priest, a witch, a fallen angel and a strip club proprietor to save the world. This unlikely band of heroes battles zombies, witches, neuroses and sunburn while cracking jokes and looking for the perfect bag of O-negative.<br />
<br />
<strong>BACK IN BLACK</strong><br />
<br />
Vampire detectives Jimmy Black and Greg Knightwood investigate a series of assaults plaguing the alleys of Charlotte, North Carolina. The string of hate crimes becomes personal when Jimmy's just-maybe-main-squeeze Detective Sabrina Law's cousin is attacked. Helping a lady out could get the boys killed when they end up in Faerie. Before long, they're up to their butts in trolls, dark fae and a grand battle royale. The odds are against them, but to the boys, this is just another day on the night shift-if the night shift included a steel cage match of supernaturals.<br />
<br />
<strong>KNIGHT MOVES</strong></p><p>Et tu, Vampire? The boys discover they may be tied to a string of serial killings at the college and that they suddenly aren't the only vampire game in town.<br />
<br />
The vampire count in Charlotte is at least three. Or more. As far as the unhappy boys are concerned, anything more than two is a crowd not to be tolerated.<br />
<br />
While tracking down the killer and the competition, they encounter coeds, booby traps (not related to the coeds) and a hirsute bounty hunter with a moon fetish and a bad attitude. To catch the killer, Jimmy will have to survive a dive headfirst into the great unwashed horde of Dorkdom (game night at the local comic shop).<br />
<br />
What's a red-blood-drinking vampire to do? His job. Again.</p>
