What is the Paul Isaac Vampire Series?
"Best put, it's CSI with fangs. Many times when you write about vampires and werewolves, people automatically think gore and horror. Not entirely true with this series. Imagine a world where vampires, werewolves, and all the things that go bump in the middle of the night really existed, lived among us, and were protected by governments around the world. The Paul Isaac Vampire Series explores the 'what ifs' of that world and how it would impact the social, ethical, and criminal behavior of all demographics involved.
"Although these vampires never sparkle, make no mistake about it, they love being at the top of the food chain, indulging in their sexual appetite, taking advantage of their freedom, and manipulating the hell out of the human race. One man stands between their deadly fangs and our throats: Paul Isaac, vampire executioner. Add in a sensual werewolf goddess that is girl power to the max and needs no man to protect her, and you have a series that is full of full throttle excitement, chock full of double crossing twists, and soon to be your next reading addiction." --James C. Gillen
