Movie Vamps

Angie Fox has leaked out the titles to books 3 and 4 of her Accidental Demon Slayer series.  A Tale of Two Demon Slayers and The Last of the Demon Slayers (respectively) is what we have to look forward to.  Angie doesn’t mention when they’ll be out, but we still have 2 more novels to look forward to.  Although the title of book four has me worried that she’ll try and end the series, so hopefully that isn’t true and the title is still tentative.  :)

Check out the cover hotness Katie MacAlister has for her upcoming steampunk novel, Steamed.  Is that not awesome?  SciFiGuy has the blurb.

Also, Katie is holding an online booksigning for Crouching Vampire, Hidden Fang.  Here’s the info:

• Date: Saturday, May 23rd
• Time: 3pm Pacific (an online time zone converter can be found here)
• Place: The chat room can be found at www.katiemacalister.com/chat.php

The online chat is going to run for about an hour and will be moderated by the Minion Wranglers.  They’ll be organizing the question queue so Katie doesn’t get blasted with a ton of questions, so don’t be afraid to submit a question.  During the virtual signing, Katie is going to be giving away prizes, so it’ll be worth spending an hour with her over the weekend.  Katie is also looking for questions for Aisling, Drake, Jim, Gabriel, or May, for a project she is working on, so if you have any, contact her via her website (or if you have her email).

And in Twilight news, we have a new pic for New Moon.  And UPI.com is reporting that Robert Pattinson has said at the Cannes Film Festival that there will be a movie for Breaking Dawn and that he will be playing Edward in it.  And, the Sisterhood of the Trampoline Pants has a couple more movie posters for New Moon that are just as good as the one I’m showing.

And speaking of movie vampires, JustJared.com has a look at the upcoming CW television series The Vampire Diaries, which is based on the same novels by LJ Smith.

Finally there is some news on the anthology Dark and Stormy Knights.  Another great collection being edited by PN Elrod, she confirmed that everything is a go and the release is scheduled for some time in 2010.  The amazing authors involved in this collection are: Ilona Andrews, Jim Butcher, Shannon K. Butcher, Rachel Caine, P.N. Elrod, Deidre Knight, Vicki Petterson, Lilith Saintcrow, Carrie Vaughn, so it’s one you really want to keep an eye out for.  Carrie Vaughn has already given us an idea to her short story – it’ll involve Cormac and I’ve been soo wanting more of him.

I wasn’t aware of this, but Rachel Vincent is doing an online prequel for her upcoming YA series, Soul Screamers.  My Soul to Lose is going to be available July 1st and as soon as I find out where, I’ll let you know.

SciFiGuy is just a fountain of information right now.  He has more information on the upcoming television series The Vampire Diaries, which are based the LJ Smith novels of the same name.  The show will air this fall on Thursdays at 8pm, right before Supernatural.

He has also found a little more information on the Never After anthology that will be coming out this fall.  Supposedly, the story that LKH is contributing will be called Can You Bake a Cherry Pie, but no word if it takes place in Merry’s or Anita’s world.  Marjorie Liu also posted the blurb for her short, The Tangleroot Palace.

CONTEST ALERT – Diana Peterfreund is giving away three (3) copies of Sarah Cross’s Dull Boy and all you have to do is talk about your superhero side.  Or go make yourself into one.  :)  The contest ends at midnight on Sunday.  Check it out, I am the Glorious Lasered Whip Lash.
