BIBLIOGRAPHY Dark Series The Dark Series introduces the Carpathians, a powerful and ancient race. They have many gifts, including the ability to shape-shift, and extended life spans, living over 1000 years. Though they feed on human blood, they don't kill their human prey, and for the most part live among humans without detection. Despite their gifts, the Carpathians are on the edge of extinction. There have been few children born to them in the past few centuries, and those that have been born are all male and often die in the first year. It has been more than 500 years since a female has been born. In the absence of their female counterparts, also known as "lifemates", male Carpathians lose the ability to feel emotions and to see in color. The only feeling left to them is the thrill of making a kill. Once a male has done this, he loses his soul and "turns", becoming the monster of human legend, the vampire or the "undead". With so few females left, males are forced to make a stark choice- either become vampire or "greet the dawn" (i.e. commit suicide). #'' Dark Prince '' (July 1999) #'' Dark Desire '' (December 1999) #'' Dark Gold '' (April 2000) #'' Dark Magic '' (July 2000) #'' Dark Challenge '' (November 2000) #'' Dark Fire '' (August 2001) #'' Dark Dream '' (September 2001) (in the anthology '' After Twilight '') #'' Dark Legend '' (January 2002) #'' Dark Guardian '' (May 2002) #'' Dark Symphony '' (February 2003) #'' Dark Descent (novel) '' (May 2003) #'' Dark Melody '' (November 2003) #'' Dark Destiny '' (July 2004) #'' Dark Hunger '' (August 2004) (in the anthology ''Hot Blooded'') #'' Dark Secret '' (February 2005) #'' Dark Demon '' (August 2006) #'' Dark Celebration '' (August 2006) #'' Dark Possession '' (Coming 2007) Drake Sisters Series # ''Magic in the Wind'' (In the anthology ''Lover Beware'') # ''The Twilight Before Christmas'' (December 2003) (and in the anthology ''Wicked and the wondrous'', 2004),(and in the ''Holiday Treasure'', 2006) # ''Oceans of Fire'' (April 2005) # ''Dangerous Tides'' (June 2006) # ''Safe Harbor'' (Coming 2007) Ghostwalkers Series Dr. Peter Whitney, a brilliant and wealthy scientist, creates a technique to enhance the natural abilities of psychics.
