I saw this book at the store the other day, I tried to read the jacket but I just couldn't do it.

Antibellum emo vampires? Can't really see it. These must be pre-mormon pre-emo and pre-sticky knickers vampires. I'll read.

Since when did books have trailers anyway?

Welcome to the 21st century.

The reviews have been great, even the Abraham Lincoln blog liked it. Tim Burton has already optioned the film rights.

Your Honor, exhibit #598 of why Tim needs to be punched in the nuts repeatedly

It's a best seller, as was Pride & Prejudice & Zombies before it, and both are being made into movies. You can't pin this on me.

Objection overruled.

I pronounce you guilty.

Then I must counterattack with the upcoming movie "Leonardo da Vinci and the Soldiers of Forever"

Da Vinci is best known as the painter behind "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper," though he also was an inventor, engineer, architect, mathematician among many other occupations. The project re-imagines Da Vinci as a member of a secret society who falls headlong into a supernatural adventure that pits the man against Biblical demons in a story involving secret codes, lost civilizations, hidden fortresses and fallen angels. Think "National Treasure" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark" by way of "Clash of the Titans."

Boring.

[grumbler]

Boring.

Of course.  The Hack Attack follows every original idea and produces tons of boring unoriginal copies.  Happened to fantasy, happened to vampire novels, and now to the "unusual combo" genre.

Philip Jose farmer did all of this stuff much better than the modern writers, back in the 1960s and 1970s.

Abe Lincoln vs. vampires actually sounds like it would work very well as an allegory -- vampires being parasites who survive off of the life energy of others.
