This book is just one in a popular series by Thompson where he has written about such topics as Monty Python, The Beatles, Les Zeppelin, and The Sopranos. His latest, takes on True Blood. Dave is quoted as nursing a secret vein of gothic fascination and has amassed a vast library of vampire-related books and movies, which are kept in a suitably dark room.

If You Like True Blood . . . is a popular history of vampires in classical and popular culture, by an author who has been reading and watching such things since high school, and who seriously believes The Hunger is one of the best things David Bowie has ever done. With chapters embracing silent movies and modern erotica, mist-shrouded myth, and Gothic rock, If You Like True Blood . . . transports the reader from the moss-drenched wilds of Louisiana to the mountain haunts of Transylvania, via introductions to some of history and literature’s most accomplished bloodsuckers. More than 200 new-to-you stories, movies, adventures, and eccentricities are staked out in the sunlight. Exclusive interview material stirs fresh plasma into the pot, and selections from the authors own collection of vampirabilia are among the many illustrations. Anne Rice, Peter Cushing, Sookie Stackhouse, Screamin Jay Hawkins, Marvel Comics, Bram Stokers Draculaall flit not-so-silently through these pages; Vlad the Impaler, the Countess Bathory, Mina Harker, and Roman Polanski, too. In addition, authoritative appendices offer up a guide to best movie, TV, and literary vampires out there. If You Like True Blood . . . may not grant you eternal life, but it knows plenty of people who can.

“If you Like True Blood . . .” by Dave Thompson, $16.99 offers all kinds of suggestions for the Sookie Stackhouse fan for reading and viewing.
