Quote from Night's Embrace: "Had I been at Troy when they left the
horse behind, there would have been roasted Greek on the beach that day."

In the original version of Seize the
Night, the body count was so high
that one of my critique partners
pointed out that New Orleans would
have called in the National Guard.
So I tweaked the body count a
bit--it's still a good blood bath
though. |

Factoid:
Even though it came out the week of
Christmas which is a killer time for books
on lists, STN had a remarkable showing. It
landed at #1 mass market for Waldenbooks and
Borders and was #9 NYT, # 8 Publisher's
Weekly and #22 on USA Today. It spent a
total of 29 weeks on bestseller lists.

Valerius
of Rome
(Vah-lair-EE-us)
Valerius is the son of a Roman Senator. He became a Roman general who led
conquests throughout Greece, Gaul and Britannia. For a most obvious reason,
he doesn't play well with most Dark-Hunters and it is imperative we keep him
far away from Kyrian, Kell, Safrax, Zarek and Zoe.
Val is truly ostracized from the rest of his brethren. Retta
has tried from time to time to bring him more into the DH circle, but the
older Dark-Hunters refuse to forgive him for his past crimes.
No one knows what brought him into our circle.
Val makes his debut in Night's Embrace:
Talon followed his line of vision to see Valerius
approaching them. He'd only met the Roman general one other
time. Val had taken one look at Talon's jacket and torc, and
sneered the word "Celt" thus letting Talon know friendship
with this Dark-Hunter was about as likely as finding a
parking space for a tank on Bourbon Street during Mardi
Gras.
The Roman's black hair was pulled back into an impeccable
queue. He wore black pleated pants, loafers, turtleneck and
a long cashmere coat. If one didn't know better, he would
appear to be an affluent attorney, not a Daimon executioner.
