If you enjoy paranormal books - vampires, werewolves, alternate realities - you will love Kate Locke's new book "God Save the Queen" - the first in a series called the "Immortal Empire". This is set in this time; but, in an alternate reality where Queen Victoria is an immortal vampire; along with a lot of the nobility throughout the Europe and the rest of the world. Imagine a world where Queen Victoria never died and is still ruling today. A world where there are vampires, werewolves, goblins, humans, and those who are half bloods (human-vampire and human-werewolf). Her first book is great and if the rest of the series is as enjoyable - she is an author well worth keeping an eye on. Personally, I can hardly wait.

This is good news. Such novels coming into the market, some movie directors or producers may just spot the novel and come out with a whole new movie series. Novels have been a source of ideas for the movie producers to make movies these days. Many interesting movie titles came from novel. Keep on the good work novelists. Then we shall have more movies to watch in the future.

Well, this is her first book; but, if the rest of the series is as good it would make a very interesting movie series or even a tv adaptation.

I found it at my local library and am now looking for a copy for myself to keep. Libraries are great places to find new authors and if this is her first book, it looks like it will be a fantastic series.

Oh I love this genre entirely! I did not hear of Kate Locke before though. I am thankful that you shared this information about this brand new book. I am into a lot of reading and keep purchasing new books to read from an online store. I will just take a look and see if this is available as yet. If it is not too pricey, I will give the order right away. Or else I will wait til my birthday which is next month so that I can ask my parents for it. The scenario you have described is totally fascinating. I love getting into these alternate realities kind of books. They transform my world into an entirely different one and I can visualize what I am reading if the writing style is good. I think this book will become a bestseller if the story is able to hold our attention. Hoping to get a copy soon.

I got my copy at our local library. It is a great way to check out new authors for free. Though, every now and then I find a realy good author and then go out and get the book. Right now, I think it is only available in hardcover; but, that may change.
