Thirteen Plus-1 Lovecraftian Narratives Stories honoring the intriguingly dark and imaginative world of H.P. Lovecraft. Elder Gods and hideous creatures change the lives of human beings forever. These cautionary tales remind us to: Be careful Pay attention Remember: you never know what lurks just beneath the surface. Forward by S.T. Joshi Phantasmagoria Magazine #23 by reviewer Tori Born: "I found this collection incredibly engaging and had to take breaks between stories to fully digest each one. I enjoyed 'Flesh and Bones', and genuinely feel that this is a stand-out story. Perhaps less terrifying than the other tales, this one is disturbingly romantic in its own, macabre way. Kilpatrick is a master at creating atmosphere and setting a scene that you can't just see but can smell, and can feel, and this story is the perfect example of how she best employs these skills." Lovecraftiana Magazine review: "The anthology as a whole is well textured, with running themes at some points, while at others introducing stories that come as a complete surprise." Hellnotes by reviewer Elaine Pascale: "Thirteen Plus-1 contains clever stories with recurring themes...which delve into the origins of the human species. ...gothic horror, body horror, bizarro horror, feminist horror-enough of a buffet to delight any palate."

Vampires and humans are at war Moarte, King of the Vampirii, is a prisoner of his Sapiens enemy. The beautiful Sapiens Princess Valada, believing that Moarte killed her mother, tortures him, even to the point of breaking the bones in his wings so he cannot escape. She intends to incinerate him to ash in sunlight, but Moarte escapes. Moarte hungers for revenge. When, through an act of betrayal, Valada is captured by the vampirii, his first instinct is to drain her blood and annihilate her. But he realizes he can get revenge in other ways, using her as a tool to gain the upper hand in this conflict. But who is manipulating whom? Both want revenge, and control of the other, and Moarte wants to drink Valada's blood. Dark desires lead down a path neither had envisioned, a threatening spiral that can destroy empires. Hunter and hunted change places again and again in this novel of twisted, violent passions. Seeds of deception are sown amidst love and hate, loyalty and betrayal, obsession and indifference, in an erotic tale of warring races, foes since the beginning of time, and two unlikely adversaries aligning to battle a common enemy.
