Rain's The Lost Ark is a breakneck thriller that traces the thread of history from Biblical stories to current-day headlines. Be prepared to lose sleep!"-JAMES ROLLINS, international bestselling author of The Devil Colony"I enjoyed this immensely. The protagonist, Samantha Moon, is a female vampire with a husband and children. Those predate her condition; six years ago she was attacked by a vampire and rendered into one. Now she's trying to carry on with family and private eye business, and she's a feisty, skilled person, so is doing mostly okay. It is not a horror story; she buys animal blood to eat and doesn't generally prey on humans. But her husband has an increasing problem with her coldness-not of spirit, but of body. 'You sicken me and scare the hell out of me,' he tells her. 'And when I touch you it's all I can do to not gag.' She replies, 'Words every wife wants to hear.' I love this! What makes it special are her character and nature."-PIERS ANTHONY, bestselling author of A Spell for Chameleon"Dark Horse is one of the best books I've read in a long time! A great classic detective story with a modern twist. Unique and interesting characters (I think I'm half in love with Jim Knighthorse now!), a great plot that kept me guessing until the end, and some of the funniest lines I've read anywhere."-GEMMA HALLIDAY, bestselling author of Spying in High Heels"J.R. Rain delivers a blend of action and wit that always entertains. Quick with the one-liners, but his characters are fully fleshed out (even the undead ones) and you'll come back again and again."-SCOTT NICHOLSON, bestselling author of Liquid Fear"Impossible to put down. JR Rain's Moon Dance is a fabulous urban fantasy."-APRIL VINE, author of Intrigue In India"Moon Dance is absolutely brilliant!"-LISA TENZIN-DOLMA, author of Understanding the Planetary Myths"J.R. Rain is the new modern master of vampires."-H.T. NIGHT, #1 bestselling Kindle author of Vampire Love Story"I love Jim Knighthorse! Please write faster, Mr. Rain!"-ELAINE BABICH, #1 bestselling Kindle author of You Never Called Me Princess"Moon Dance is a must read. If you like Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum, bounty hunter, be prepared to love J. R. Rain's Samantha Moon, vampire private investigator."-EVE PALUDAN, author of Letters from David"I totally loved The Body Departed. As someone who communicates with those who are either earthbound or have crossed over-your descriptions and interpretations of the dialogue and circumstances could not have been written more accurately."-JULIE BELMONT, author of The Path to Personal Success and Freedom"I thoroughly enjoyed The Vampire With the Dragon Tattoo from one of my favorite authors. A great way to spend a few hours of the afternoon.
