A Home Run! June 9, 2008

Ariel has hit this one right out of the park. Just when you think you have read every different take on vampires, Ariel comes along and gives us a new and different approach to this age old tale. The fact that there is a reflection of the real world in the characters as two of them at least are gay, just makes it more endearing. Highly recommend this work to anyone who loves gay fiction or things that go bump bump in the night!

What a great story - suspense, romance, love, sex, vampires.... the baddies want to take over the world, mages and vampires must band together, ebem though reluctantly, and ... best yet, the book is a first of a sequel!
Worst thing about the book is that I have to wait till 2009 for part two.

Ariel Tachna has, once again, left me amazed by her writing. Whenever I think I've read everything homoerotica has to offer she comes out with yet another amazing book! And her skills go much further than just smut, the plot is solid and just as interesting as the between-the-sheets moments (though those leave little to be desired too!) It's a great read and the characters, despite being less than human, are relatable and lovable. I only hope I can wait (somewhat patiently) for the next installment in november. This book is DEFINITELY worth every penny.

Marcel is a powerful wizard. He has contacted the leader of the vampires Jean Bellaiche to try and form an alliance against Pascal Serrier - a powerful dark wizard. Alian Magnier is the wizard Marcel sends to meet with the vampires. Orlando St. Clair is the vampire chosen by Jean to meet with Alian. There is an immediate attraction between Orlando and Alian. When Alian offers his blood as a sign of good faith, something magical happens between them - a strong connection forms. Orlando can feel Alian's power flowing through him. The vampires and wizards discover that the unique and powerful bond that has formed between Orlando and Alian may happen for other wizard/vampire pairs. One effect of the connection is the vampire's ability to withstand the sun when he feeds from the wizard. This could make their alliance that much stronger. As they work to find suitable matches between their races, Serrier is planning his next attack.
Alliance in Blood is an emotionally charged story. Orlando's insecurity and his need for acceptance and love is tangible. Alian is so good to and for him. They make a very loving and passionate couple. Orlando's past is filled with violence and pain. The images he recalls are heartbreaking. There is a scene in Alliance in Blood that brought tears to my eyes because of its heart- wrenching poignancy. Alliance in Blood is dark, erotic, and very well written. I love the concept of this story. It's very cool and very different. Alliance in Blood is the beginning of what promises to be a terrific series.
