Bloodlines: A Treasury of Nightmares
The greatest masters of the macabre are collected in a single volume that spans two centuries. In these pages are the dead and the damned: bloodthirsty vampires and wicked werewolves, mythic monsters and cosmic terrors, and enough haunted houses to fill a city block. Showcasing classic masterpieces mixed with hidden gems and forgotten phantasms, Bloodlines traces horror’s literary lineage from one generation to the next.

Will this book help you lose weight, regrow your hair, and improve your sex life? Probably! But don’t take my word for it. Listen to knockoff Christopher Golden Mr. Oxy-Clean himself:
A genre retrospective like Bloodlines comes along every decade or so; we’ve been overdue for a new one, and I’ve been busy for the past three years compiling a knockout anthology that looks great on your bookshelf sandwiched between The Dark Descent and The Weird.
My hope is that Bloodlines helps to preserve the past and foster the future. It honors those genre wizards upon whose shoulders we stand, and lays the foundation for aspiring authors to take weird fiction into exciting new directions in the coming decades.
Several dozen authors are included, from undisputed masters like Arthur Machen, M. R. James, Algernon Blackwood, and H. P. Lovecraft (now with 80% less racism!), to oft-forgotten practitioners of the supernatural such as Davis Grubb, Irvin S. Cobb, Aleister Crowley, and H. Russell Wakefield. Plus all your favorites from the heyday of the pulps.
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE! What’s that, hipster Jason Blum Sham-Wow guy?

Now I’m not saying you should give in to peer pressure; I’m just saying that all the Cool Kids are buying multiple copies of Bloodlines, and you’ll be ridiculed and exiled by friends and loved ones if you don’t too.
“One for me, and one for Michelle!”
Even dipshit Svengali Donald Trump is shilling this book, and he doesn’t shill things lightly.
“Buy this book! And don’t vote for me!”
In summary: please pick up a copy of Bloodlines. I’m ever so hungry.
Tell your friends, spread the word. I wanted to drop this book as a surprise, so there are no preorders to give it an Amazon boost. As such, word of mouth is even more important, so feel free to link or Tweet or podcast or Tik-Tok dance, or whatever the hell sells books these days.
