Penny Dreadful Adventures: Vampyres of London 1. Varney the Vampire (My Part in His Creation)

Alexander C. MacNeill came to London expecting a place in his uncle’s vast publishing business, only to find he wrote penny dreadful’s to scratch a living. Alexander takes over as editor of the venture, and their first story Varney the Vampyre is received with some success.
But not is as it seems… Alexander has doubts about the source of the material. As the weeks pass and subsequent Varney chapters are released, the real story behind the grizzly tale are revealed…
Alexander always thought Varney was confined to the pages of a Penny Dreadful, perhaps was wrong…
The Penny Dreadful Adventures is the first in a series, bringing the writing of these macabre shorts to a new generation of readers. Some authors sold a few thousand copies, some sold many millions, yet their names do not survive.

About the Author

I am Scottish, born in Edinburgh, and spent the first 41 years of my life not far from my fair and bonnie "Athens of the North". I now live in Topeka, Kansas with my wife (bless her), no pets (don't like 'em), no children (all moved out), and with many gallons of home-made wine bubbling as I write.

I love to write, and enjoy literary challenges of all kinds. I'm not confined by genres, having equal success in Historical adventure, Sci Fi, Fantasy, Horror and hard hitting gritty crime.

I watch far too much football (Don't even think of calling it 'soccer'.) and at times chase a dimpled ball along carefully manicured countryside, with a collection of calibrated, graphite-shafted sticks. I play guitar and sing in a folk/rock band, and would love to have enough money to tour the world's archeological sites until I'm too old to walk.
