Wait...what? This book sounds cracktastic.

[meganbmoore]

I have nothing but THE DEEPEST RESPECT for the brain that went "Elixabeth Tudor: VAMPIRE SLAYER vs Mordred: SUPER SEXY VAMPIRE with possible pre-slaying sexytimes thrown in."

[walkwithheroes]

Agreed.

o_O

I'm dying to read this.

AREN'T YOU JUST.

I think my favorite part is how Slayer Elizabeth Tudor and Vampire Mordred aren't enough for this author. She has to make the narrator a fictional vampire from THREE CENTURIES LATER!

[meganbmoore]

That's just so minor in comparison, though...

[bookelfe]

But it is the final perfect detail! It is like, if you are going to make it an Arthurian fanfic-Tudor RPF crossover it MAY AS WELL also be Dracula fanfic.

I... am currently wrestling down my urge to read this book. God knows I don't have enough reading/work/whatever to do.

But man oh man. Is this EVER TEMPTING.

[meganbmoore]

It is SO HARD TO RESIST. I'm trying though.

BTW, I can't remember, were you planning to read the Squire's Tales books outside of the Lynette book? Because I have an extra copy of Parsifal's Page (different editions tricked me).

I have several of them on my "to read" pile, but I sort of chose them at random and for my own bizarre reasons. ;P However, at some point I am likely to read them all, so if you are looking to unload a copy, I will gladly give it a home. ;)

I just got my hands on Vera Chapman's Lynette book (it's in the mail now) and I am BEYOND EXCITE.

I can also assure you that if this Elizabeth/Mordred book is available in any library in this state, it will be read by me sooner or later. I mean really. Mordred is the vampire king? Elizabeth I -- who is already enough of a badass that she barely needs help -- is a slayer? Really, this book cannot be resisted.

I've just been grabbing them when I see them for cheap. I'm reading the Dinadin book now. So far, they're really best when the squires are all "WTF I was gone for two minutes AND YOU ARE ON ANOTHER ABSURD QUEST WITH A DAMSEL WHO DOESN'T SEEM TO WANT YOU AROUND ANYWAY WHAT IS WITH YOU?"

Have you read the Phyllis Ann Karr book yet?

[meganbmoore]

The paperback is probably marked down because a new edition is coming out.
