Publisher Description

You're invited to a celebration of vampires by a baker's dozen of favorite authors. Sink your teeth into 13 stories, each one a fresh and unique take on the concept of what birthdays mean to the undead.

In New York Times best-selling author Charlaine Harris's Dracula Night, Sookie Stackhouse is the only human at the annual commemoration of Dracula's birth. But this year, the Prince of Darkness actually shows up - and finds Sookie a tasty-looking present.

New York Times best-selling author Jim Butcher's crime-solving wizard Harry Dresden, of the Dresden Files novels, heads to a role-playing party to give his vampire brother a birthday present in It's My Birthday, Too, only to discover there are some bloodthirsty party crashers who don't share their brotherly love.

In Twilight, Cassandra DuCharme, from New York Times best-selling author Kelley Armstrong's Dime Store Magic, knows she has to kill to live as a vampire another year - but finds herself disturbingly disinterested in the hunt.

National best-selling author P. N. Elrod's hardboiled vampire PI Jack Fleming, from The Vampire Files, infiltrates a suspicious séance on the eve of the dearly departed's birthday in Grave-Robbed.

And in award-winning author Toni L. P. Kelner's How Stella Got Her Grave Back, vampires become amateur sleuths (with breaks for feeding) to solve the murder of a Jane Doe.

Suspenseful, surprising, sometimes dark, sometimes humorous - these and eight more frighteningly original stories will ensure you'll never think of vampires or birthdays quite the same again.

The list of authors also includes Jeanne C. Stein, Rachel Caine, Tanya Huff, Carolyn Haines, Christopher Golden, Bill Crider, Tate Hallaway, and Elaine Viets. This anthology was edited by Charlaine Harris and Toni L. P. Kelner.

"A very enjoyable anthology built around the twin themes of vampires and birthdays. The stories range from comedy to romance to tragedy and all are well done in their own different ways. Recommended, if this is the kind of thing you like, you will like this."

    " I kinda fell out of love with vampires a while back, however a friend lent this to me so I figured I'd give it a chance. I didn't read all the stories but I did enjoy what I read and made me want to read books by some of the authors I didn't already know. It's mostly a book of fluff which made it a simple and fast read "

    " This review is only for "Twilight" by Kelley Armstrong. I feel like I've read this one before. Perhaps is was available on the author's website or in another anthology. Or maybe I just forgot I'd already read this one! It's nice to read from a vampire's point-of-view since it is one of the creatures never featured as a main character in The Women of the Otherworld series. The description of Cassandra's lethargy was so accurate it was making me exhausted just thinking about getting up off the couch! I enjoyed the relationship between Cass and Aaron, but found myself wishing for just a little more. :) I'm glad for the new knowledge of the inner-workings of vampire "life" and how it is earned. Another good foray in the series! "

    " I love the Harris/Kellner team ups! One, I usually get a new Sookie short story and two, I get turned on to new authors. And I love the themes. It's interesting to see what the authors come up with, and how they are all different. "
