Tanya Huff may have left Nova Scotia at three, and has lived most of her life since in Ontario, but she still considers herself a Maritimer. On the way to the idyllic rural existence she shares with her partner Fiona Patton, six cats, and a chihuahua, she acquired a degree in Radio and Television Arts from Ryerson Polytechnic—an education she was happy to finally use while writing her recent Smoke novels. Of her previous twenty-three books, the five—Blood Price, Blood Trail, Blood Lines, Blood Pact, Blood Debt—featuring Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, romance writer, and vampire are among the most popular.
"Entertaining characters, wry humor, crazy plots, glimpses of
horror, the occult, romance, and just a dollop of sex."—VOYA
"The novel [has] an unexpected serious theme that helps raise it
above the crowd. It may be funny, often lighthearted and highly
entertaining, but it's more than just another 'light'
fantasy."—Locus
"A yummy concoction of equal parts fantasy and mystery, throwing in
a splash of humor and a dash of romance to beguile the palate quite
delightfully.... Ms. Huff manages to develop all her different plot
threads to marvelous effect. How could anyone resist this vastly
entertaining pastiche?"—RT Book Reviews
"A fine mix of the detective story with the supernatural, and
easily Huff's best novel to date.... A rousing adventure tale
with likable characters and an interesting setting."—Science
Fiction Chronicle
"The author of the Blood novels has once again proven
herself a master of urban fantasy."—Library Journal
"Huff tells a great story, but never takes herself or it too
seriously. She consciously borrows elements from other books as
well as movies, comics, and mythology and combines them with her
own great imagination to make a thoroughly satisfying story."—SF
