Description:

Are vampires played out as subjects for fiction? The misfortune of this deft, appealing little novel is that this may be an inopportune time for another tale of rock stars, slackers, and vampires in a wealthy-but-seedy California setting. If you can get past that problem, though, you'll find much to admire in Stainless: spare, lyrical prose; a refusal to glamorize empty lifestyles; a vampire-human love relationship that reaches for, but never achieves, real connection. Douglas Winter, in the Washington Post, calls this "an intriguing alternative to the usual suspects of the vampire set."
