Combining rousing pulp action with steampunk style, Vampire Empire brings epic political themes to life within a story of heartbreaking romance, sacrifice, and heroism. Vampire Empire: The Greyfriar is the first book in a trilogy of high adventure and alternate history. Clay and Susan Griffith, a married couple who have written and published together for more than two decades, are the authors of the Vampire Empire trilogyThe Greyfriar, The Rift Walker, and The Kingmakersand the Crown & Key trilogy, as well as the first Vampire Empire: A Gareth and Adele novel, The Geomancer. Their dangerous relationship plays out against an approaching war to the death between humankind and the vampire clans Her only protector is the Greyfriar, a mysterious hero who fights the vampires from deep within their territory. But her quest turns black when she becomes the target of a merciless vampire clan.
