Though people have been exploring the legend of the vampire for hundreds of years, the female vampire has been largely overlooked...until now. Pill Hill Press proudly presents Fem-Fangs, a collection of short stories focused on fanged girls of the night with a taste for human blood and a penchant for power, seduction and terror. Find your favorite turtleneck and sink your teeth into this monster of a collection. You're in store for some long, dark nights filled with beautiful, hungry creatures. Don't cry when you find yourself with two perfectly round puncture wounds on your neck... because you've been warned.

    A very solid read. Nearly all the authors involved are new to the craft, so a few of the stories do fall flat, but there is such a sheer variety, and for an EXTREMELY fair price (particularly the $5 Kindle version!) that there's really no reason not to pick it up. If even four or five of the 30+ stories appeal to you, then it was worth the price of admission, and most likely you're going to find more than that if you're a fan of vampire fiction in any way. My particular favorites were the stories by F.J.R. Titchenell, which featured one of the charmingly malicious twists I've ever seen; the work by Ray Cluley, which managed to humanize the Brides of Dracula (!) withOUT making them any bit less monstrous and cruel; and 'Night of the Suck' by Jennifer L. Barnes, which gets serious amusement props for somehow managing to make getting shot in the face and waking up in the morgue seem roughly in the ballpark of losing your car keys. But overall, there are plenty of fine short stories in here, and anyone with a taste for vampires should see this book as a solid value.

    The versatility of the vampire myth from a story-telling standpoint is really mind-blowing and on full display in this book. I heard about this short story collection from Jennifer Chambers, author of Undead Ladies Who Lunch, when we met at the Southern Oregon Author and Book Fair. Chambers' story is very short and very clever. I love vampire characters who move confidently in the modern world and make us think twice about our everyday activities, in this case, the Macy's makeup counter. Pattison's story about Van Helsing as divorce lawyer surprised me and his Vamp is delicious. And Lee's story, which opens the collection, delivers a robust Anne Rice patina that made me surprisingly nostalgic for the genuine period gothic tradition. Al in all, a solid collection and makes for great airplane, poolside or late-night easy reading.
