Katie MacAlister revealed the cover for her upcoming In The Company of Vampires, due out November.

The cover isn't quite finished; there are still a few tweaks to it, such as lightening the eyes, and hopefully adding a diamond stud earring, but you can at least see how gorgeous the colors are. And of course, ogle the guy. –Katie MacAlister

Check out Katie’s blog for the inside image too. I don’t know about you, but this guy looks a little too tan to be a vampire.  A were on the other hand…

Book Description:

In A Town Like This, Being A P.I. Can Be Murder

Shiarra Waynest’s detective work was dangerous enough when her client base was strictly mortal. But ailing finances have forced her to accept a lucrative case that could save her firm—if it doesn’t kill her first. Shiarra has signed on to work for a high-level mage to recover an ancient artifact owned by one of New York’s most powerful vampires.

As soon as Shiarra meets sexy, mesmerizing vamp Alec Royce, she knows her assignment is even more complicated than she thought. With a clandestine anti-Other group trying to recruit her, and magi being eliminated, Shiarra needs back-up and enlists her ex-boyfriend—a werewolf whose non-furry form is disarmingly appealing—and a nerdy mage with surprising talents. But it may not be enough. In a city where the undead roam, magic rules, and even the Others aren’t always what they seem, Shiarra has just become the secret weapon in a battle between good and evil—whether she likes it or not…

Review:
HUNTED BY THE OTHERS reminded me why I fell in love with the urban fantasy genre in the first place. 

Shiarra Waynest is about to lose her P.I business because she can’t pay her bills.  Rather then be seen as a failure in the eyes of her family, she accepts a case from a client who’s willing to pay big.  The only problem is that the client is a Mage and the job involves getting close enough to steal from Alex Royce, the most powerful Vampire in New York.  Working for the Others (e.g. Vampires, Weres, Mages, Elves etc.) isn’t exactly high on Shia’s to do list.  In fact it ranks just above getting back together with her lying Were ex-boyfriend.  But she really needs the money.  Soon, Shia finds herself shopping at The Circle’s armory and outfitted by the White Hats underground anti-Other store as she prepares for a showdown with something worse than the Vampires and Weres put together—the person who’s controlling them.

Fans of Laurel K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series and Kim Harrison's Rachel Morgan series will love the world building in HUNTED BY THE OTHERS. Immediately following the attacks on 9/11, the Others seized the opportunity to reveal their existence to the world. Weres were among those rescuing people at ground zero, and Mages provided significant financial aid to prevent economic collapse in the days that followed. These efforts greatly helped ease public acceptance of the Others, but fear and hatred resulted in forming groups like the White Hats who’s sole purpose was to eradicate the Others from the face of the earth.

While the fanatics formed several hate groups, the more sane yet cautious members of society sought out political means of protecting themselves: laws. One of the more interesting legal arrangements allows humans to contractually sign their lives away to Others (the Others have lawyers too). These forms have to be signed prior to any kind of intimate (pleasant or otherwise) contact between humans and Others. These legal arrangements make for some very interesting and terrifying (depending on your perspective) scenes in HUNTED BY THE OTHERS.

Shiarra isn’t a White Hat nor is she exactly ready to cozy up with the Others (at least not knowingly).  She’s just a normal person who unwillingly gets caught up in a power struggle between the Others.  She exhibits real fear in the face of danger, but she never lets that fear paralyze her.  She forces herself to be brave (along with some encouragement and a healthy dose of magic from a possessed Vampire Hunter’s belt, that is) when those she cares about are in danger.

And speaking of danger, Alex Royce is seductive and scary (which according to a recent Throwdown makes him the best kind of Vampire). Half the time he is stalking Shia I don’t think even he knew if he wanted to eat her or sleep with her.  So, yeah, plenty of romantic tension here.  I can’t wait to see where that relationship goes in the next book. 

HUNTED BY THE OTHERS is everything you want in an urban fantasy:  A paranormal world that sucks you in, characters you actually care about, romantic tension that truly sizzles, and did I mention Royce?  Taken By The Others (H&W Investigations, book 2) is tentatively scheduled for release December 2010/January 2011, and I’m already counting down the days.

Yes, I know I recently started using the IntenseDebate comment system, and while I liked it, I got a few complaints and have been researching other alternatives.  I looked at several other choices and Echo looks like it might be the answer.  Here’s why:

PassionFruit Games is releasing the TIGER EYE game Today!   A new game based off the novel Tiger Eye (Dirk & Steele Series #1) by best-selling author Marjorie M. Liu.

I had heard that they were making a video game out of Marjorie M. Lui’s book a while ago and was immediately intrigued and skeptical about the idea.  I’ve been a gamer for years and you all know I love all things paranormal.  I’m still playing through through game right now, but my review will be up soon.  In the meantime, here are all the details about the game including a special release party today will lots of great prizes to win.

Encounter mystery, magic, and romance in the interactive tale Tiger Eye: Curse of the Riddle Box.

The game is a hidden object-style adventure game loaded with compelling puzzles and addictive mini-games.  Between levels, players will experience hand-drawn, voice-acted cut scenes that depict the story from bestselling author Marjorie M. Liu’s novel Tiger Eye.

The game will be divided into two episodes. Curse of the Riddle Box corresponds to the first half of the book and takes place in China; the concluding installment takes place in the United States.  Each episode will be available as a stand-alone game for just $6.99.  Players will also have the option to purchase the games as part of larger packages which include soundtracks, artwork and strategy guides. Curse of the Riddle Box will be available for the PC on April 28, 2010 – the Mac release will follow soon after in May.

THE STORY

Play as the psychically-gifted Dela Reese as she’s hurtled into danger after purchasing an ancient riddle box in a Beijing dirt market.  From the box emerges Hari, a striking 7-foot tall warrior who has been imprisoned for 2000 years.  Help Dela thwart assassins who seek the power of the box, and find a way for her and Hari to safely return to Dela’s homeland, while earning each other’s respect and love.
