Description
Guillermo del Toro is a Mexican-born film director and a horror writer specializing in vampires. His work in cinema often informs his bloody, terrifying novels, giving his books a cinematographic feel. Del Toro puts his signature visual style to work in words: his vampires are ugly and disgusting rather than sexy, feline, and seductive. His preferred city for the clash of mortals against immortals is, fittingly, New York -- the city that never sleeps. His relentlessly paced plots introduce new characters and kill off others faster than you can shout, "Don't go down in the basement!" Start with: The Strain
