Queen Victoria - Demon Hunter?

Check out this new novel coming out on Queen Victoria...but with a twist...a demented twist!  I can't wait to read this!


Release Date:  October 15, 2009

June 19, 1837. A night to dismember . . .

When King William IV of England dies, 18-year-old Princess Alexandrina Victoria assumes the crown. Though she has long prepared to devote herself to God and country, keeping the British Empire safe carries responsibilities far darker and more dangerous than the new queen knows. A diabolical enemy (no, not the French!) has vowed to bring war, disease, and pestilence to the land, and is unleashing all manner of satanic sprites-hellhounds, giant rats, vampires, werewolves, flesh-devouring zombies, feral chimney sweeps with angelic smiles-to make a bloody mess of London's foggy, cobblestone streets.


Fortunately, the plucky Victoria has the armor-clad Maggie Brown, Demon Hunter and Royal Protektor, by her side, as well as her beloved suitor, Prince Albert, a quiet chap with a German accent and secret knowledge about their powerful foe, a.k.a. the lord of misrule. Armed with immeasurable courage and an arsenal of first-class weaponry, the ass-kicking Victoria and cohorts are locked, loaded, and ready to crack some evil minion heads. Filled with fog, a coronation, corsets, armor, romance, political machinations, tea, swordfights, a frenemy or two, spilled brains, lots of mayhem, and hordes of ill-mannered undead with really bad table manners, Queen Victoria, Demon Hunter gives the story of this legendary ruler and her devoted prince a hilarious, demonic twist.

  7. I think this one looks good but I am a wuss so if it is too scary I will put it in the freezer like Rachel on Friends with the shining book.
