Blood on the Heather

This isn't a bad piece of fiction--it is called an homage to b-vampire films, and it shows!

The author has written a campy and frivolous vampire story. It isn't bad, but I think it could use with some editing: while the subject matter is b-film quality, I think the writing should be a little more finely-tuned. Of course, ludicrous things happen--and are supposed to--but the actual writing could have used some editing at times and maybe a few surprises that broke the genre would have made this a stronger effort.

I much preferred the same author's noir mystery piece based on an Agatha Christie novel.
