The Vampire Earth Series
« on: January 19, 2005, 02:15:29 AM »
I was just looking for some cheese horror/action to waste away the minutes between patients when I saw this series, written by EE Knight, being talked about over at the Pinnacle forums.  They're making a Savage World plot point book out of it, in fact.

So I picked the first two novels up.

Cheese, but excellent cheese.  Like fondue.  Good action, nice  backstory...I'm hooked.  I'm eager to see where he's taking these and hoping he doesn't jump the shark anytime soon.

I only tread with trepidation because the last cheese horror series I tried was the Anita Blake series, which we all know is just soft-core porn.

*laughs and points*

Only soft-core?  Well Hamilton's OTHER fantasy series is hardcore porn, so that's a step up.

Um, not that we're mentiong HOW I know what her other series is like.....  *cough*

Isn't Hardcore to Softcore a Step Down?

/me unwittingly references that Order of the Stick joke where they want to go up an experience level and down a dungeon level.

Or you could go old school and just use evocative sentence construction.

He can be easily appeased, however, through the proper application of virgins.

I'm attempting to picture Tage draped in women, but the word "application" is wreaking havoc with my mind and I'm getting images of his using them as Band-Aids.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

I want 50% as many virgins as Tage or else I won't be appeased even if he is.
