吸血鬼女王1- 5套書(另類吸血鬼愛情話題)
創造「紐約時報」另類吸血鬼愛情話題,號稱《慾望城市》吸血鬼版。
書籍簡介:
貝絲.泰勒這個星期過得可精彩了!她先是丟了工作,而後發生車禍喪失性命,又被她自私的繼母以粉紅色套裝與塑膠鞋下葬,而還不是最糟的事,因為她怎樣也想不到,自己會成為吸血鬼一族……
誇張的是,她還被推為吸血鬼界的女王,並被賦予一個重責大任──推翻五百年來最可憎、最貪權,但服裝最爛的吸血鬼暴君。坦白說,貝絲對吸血鬼政治毫無興趣,不過最具說服力的武器出現了:設計師名牌鞋。這是任何懂得愛自己的女孩,都不會拒絕的。
然而,對貝絲形成誘惑的又豈止幾雙名牌鞋?那拎著鞋、堪稱吸血鬼界型男的艾瑞克.辛克萊,或許比刺穿心臟的木樁更加危險……
貝絲.泰勒已漸漸適應吸血鬼女王的頭銜,不過,命運之神似乎還嫌貝絲麻煩不夠多,她意外從父親口中得知她其實還有個同父異母、已經成年的妹妹,但這還不是最讓她「驚喜」的事,《亡者之書》甚至預告:她妹妹是魔鬼留在世間的女兒,注定將統治全世界!?
Product Description
It's been a hell of a week for Betsy Taylor. First she loses her job. Then she's killed in a freak accident only to wake up in a morgue to discover she's a vampire. On the plus side, being undead sure beats the alternative. She now has superhuman strength and an unnatural effect on the opposite sex. But what Betsy can't handle is her new liquid diet...
And whilst her mother and best-friend are just relieved to find out that being dead doesn't mean Betsy's can't visit, her new 'night-time' friends have the ridiculous idea that Betsy is the prophesied vampire queen. The scrumptious Sinclair and his cohorts want her help in overthrowing the most obnoxious power-hungry vampire in five centuries. (A Bella Lugosi wannabe who's seen one to many B-movies.) Frankly Betsy couldn't care less about vamp politics. But Sinclair and his followers have a powerful weapon in their arsenal - unlimited access to Manolo Blahnik's Spring collection. Well, just because a girl's dead - er undead - doesn't mean she can't have great shoes...
小業務推薦:
這套Queen Betsy小說,說是都會愛情小說也不為過,故事設定上很像慾望城市,咱們的女王是個名牌狂,卻意外成為吸血鬼族的女王,故事也因為添加了吸血鬼的身份設定,很多事就這麼不小心的超出「常人」的範圍,偏偏女王又是個非常堅持「人性」的吸血鬼,故事常常就在這女王的人性思考與非常人族類之間爭扎,好笑又一針見血的觀點,絕對是輕鬆閱讀的好選擇!
