Vampire Books or stories for Men, Guys or Boys

When writing my book, "The Birth of Vengeance," I always had in mind the main audience would be male. The book was written from a male point of view and the main character is male.

I have always been happy how many women have responded well to the book and like the strong character of Thorn, the female vampire. I always intend her character to be strong and independent and the opposite of the hapless females of other paranormal fantasies.

I have researched other vampire books for men in the bid to find my audience. There are a few of well known note, and I am sure there are plenty in the midst of the vampire catagories I haven't yet found.
I noticed they come listed under a number of keywords.
- vampire books for guys
- vampire books for men
- vampire stories for guys or men
- vampire books or stories for boys

There is also a list I created on Goodreads
https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/45401.Vampire_books_for_Men

Here is a list of the top books I have found. These are the ones that are most often mentioned.

1) The Birth of Vengeance (start with my own book. Why not)

2) Dracula (of course)

3) A Living Nightmare (Cirque Du Freak, #1) by Darren Shan

4) Let the Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist  

5) Vampire Chronicles: Interview with the Vampire, The Vampire Lestat, The Queen of the Damned

by Anne Rice

I shall continue to add on books to this list.

The Truth of Vengeance - Update

The first edit completed and returned for review. Good news its finally coming together. I have commissioned someone to do the cover art and have finished the book description.

 I will do a sample chapter and book cover reveal soon, once the book is near completion.

In the meantime, here is the book description:

"On the run from the Hunters after taking his deadly revenge on Barry, V must adapt to the truth. He is no longer the innocent little boy, Jon Harper, but a hybrid human-vampire, a killer.

He craves answers about vampires and why he was betrayed by the ones he loved.  Another vampire, Cassius, holds the truth about vampires and they arrange to meet.

The truth that he discovers is far more unreal than he expected, setting him off on a journey to uncover the whole story. He must unravel what really happened in England in order to make sense of the dark path he chose. Everyone and everything isn't as it seems.

Thorn and the vampires are even stranger than he thought."

Comments from reviewers

“Strong characters keep the story going from start to finish with plenty of twists and turns throughout. I can’t wait for the next in the series.”

“It is such a refreshing change to read a vampire novel that is different from the standard novel. This is no "Twilight" and as such is so much the better for it.”

“I didn't think it was possible to come at the vampire genre from a new angle any more, what with the numerous books already out there. However P.A Ross has managed to do this and has created an interesting and intriguing story.”

“Definitely a fresh twist for a vampire story. The premise of the whole story is very interesting. It isn't like your usual vampire novel which is mostly heroine-centric and romance-driven.”
