Welcome to Sanguinarius's Vampire Books Store, presented in association
with Amazon.com,
which contains a variety of fiction and non-fiction vampire books. You
can browse the titles here or use the search box to find what you're looking
for. When you buy something from Amazon.com through us, you help support
Sanguinarius.org in a small way, and help it to continue growing and providing
the community with more and better resources and information.
Each section is alphabetized by title; titles that actually start with
"the" are alphabetized by the next word in the title. Example:
"The Quotable Vampire" is alphabetized by "Q", not
"T". For more information on an item (or to buy it), click on
title or the book graphic.
A note: Some books may be out of print, but I have included them here
anyway, because they may be available through the Amazon.com Marketplace.
Also, please be patient for the page and graphics to load if you have
a slower net connection.

The Darkness: Undercover with Vampires in America Today, by

Ostensibly chronicling her search for a missing reporter, the book
is about the author's excursion into the vampyre subculture/scene,

entertaining reading. |

books and movies. |
|
Something
In The Blood: The Underground World of Today's Vampires, by

didn't bother to verify his information. Good thing he didn't name
names. |
|
Unholy

by Barbara E. Hort, David O'Neal (Editor).
The author uses "psychic vampires" figuratively as a term

actually deal with "psi-vampires". |

Burial and Death: Folklore and Reality, by Paul Barber.
A scholarly and fascinating study of how science-ignorant peasantry
came to view the normal processes of decay and decomposition as being
signs that a dead body was actually in an "undead", vampiric
state. I highly recommend this. |

Immortals,
The, by James Gunn.
While not strictly speaking a vampire book, this all-but-forgotten

obviously inspired by a character in this book. |

school, Clive Swinburne comes to believe his music teacher from Eastern
Europe is a vampire. |
|
World
On Blood, The: A Novel, by Jonathan Nasaw.
Excluding all the outlandish sex (which is very fun and ... interesting
... to read about), and blood-as-drug themes, this is the most realistic
vampire novel I've ever read (and one of the best). Nick Santos runs
a support group for vampires.... (Whaaaaaaaaat?? Don't look at
me like that...) |
