Abduction of Two Rulers
by Nancy Kilpatrick (Macabre Ink) ASIN: B07DRBCHK3
THRONES OF BLOOD Vol. 3

Award-winning Canadian author and editor with nearly two dozen novels and more than 200 short stories to her credit, Nancy Kilpatrick excels at writing dark fantasy, horror, mystery, erotic horror, and nonfiction. Abduction of Two Rulers--a dark, erotic fantasy--sizzles with her veteran skill and sense of adventure.

This third novel in the series involves the betrayal, imprisonment, and romance of the vampir King Thanatos. Meanwhile, King Moarte and the Sapiens are on the brink of war. Moarte and Wolfsbane are busy trying to head off the war, leaving them unable to help Thanatos or his true love search for him until long after he is surely dead.

I am a fan of dark fantasy but not a reader of erotica. When I pick up the first in this series, and then the next, and now this one, I always say, “I am not the right audience.”  Nevertheless, I can’t help but get caught up in the story.  Kilpatrick has been a vampire fan for decades and she knows them well. Her skill weaves stories that feed the cravings of the traditional lore fan as well as offering new treats.
