I just read a novel, Nalini Singh's Angel Blood, which features...

1. Angels who create vampires.

2. A vampangel. Or should that be a anpire?

Truly, the craze for vampires and angels cannot be taken any farther. But I'm just saying that because I know you, O Loyal Readers, will immediately comment with examples of God being a vampire or some such. (I am already aware of Vampirates, thank you. And also of Gundam Unicorn, which as far as I know is not also a vampire.)

But what I want to know is, has anyone written a unipire? It sucks blood through its horn!

It's not, actually, though I think I know the Springer you're talking about! No, it's this book (http://www.amazon.com/Rush-Wings-Book-Makers-Song/dp/1416541446)--someone else posted a breathless description and it sounded so amazingly id-tastic and trashy that I picked up a copy while I was traveling. (I'm only fifty pages in, so I have no idea if it will live up to its summary or if it will just be the dull sort of trashy.)

Is it some kind of law that paranormal romances must feature a tattooed headless woman on the cover?

[keelieinblack.livejournal.com]

Yes.

(Actually it's my theory that, no matter what the copyright pages say, all cover designs for paranormal romances are done by one guy working out of his apartment with nothing but a computer, the same twenty Photoshop filters, and one thousand pictures of mostly headless women in jeans/a leather skirt and midriff-baring top.)
