SLAY is a groundbreaking unique collection and will be a must-have for vampire lovers all over the world. SLAY aims to be the first anthology of its kind. Few creatures in contemporary horror are as compelling as the vampire, who manages to captivate us in a simultaneous state of fear and desire. Drawing from a variety of cultural and mythological backgrounds, SLAY dares to imagine a world of horror and wonder where Black protagonists take center stage - as vampires, as hunters, as heroes. From immortal African deities to resistance fighters; matriarchal vampire broods to monster hunting fathers; coming of age stories to end of life stories, SLAY is a groundbreaking Afrocentric vampire anthology celebrating the rich cultural heritage of the African Diaspora.--Amazon.com.… (més)

If you enjoy vampire fiction, don't let this one slip under the radar. I've been enjoying vampire fiction for many years, everything from Bram Stoker to Charlaine Harris to Octavia E. Butler, and yet this anthology was chock full of things new to me. New stories, new authors, new ideas, new perspectives. As with all anthologies, some stories are stronger than others, but overall it is a beautifully varied and nicely structured book, with some exciting digressions from the usual vampire tropes. ( )
