The trouble with being a vampire is . . . You can't get a decent haircut. You live on guinea-pig blood. And even worse, most of the world's population wants to kill you. For no good reason. Nina Harrison became a vampire in 1973, when she was fifteen. Since then, life's been one big drag - mostly because she spends all her time with a bunch of vampires, in a vampire therapy group. Then one of them gets staked by an anonymous vampire slayer, and things become even worse: while tracking down the culprit, Nina and her fellow vampires end up in the middle of an illegal werewolf-fighting racket, and find themselves the target of some genuine villains who'll stop at nothing to get their werewolf back.

Tobias ist ein normaler Jugendlicher, vielleicht nicht ganz normal: er hat besonders schnelle Reflexe, einen hervorragenden Geruchssinn und schnell wachsende Haare. Alles nicht weiter beunruhigend. Beunruhigend ist allerdings, dass er eines Tages im Krankenhaus aufwacht und Tobys Mutter ihm erzählt, er sei splitterfasernackt in einem Dingo-Gehege im Nationalpark gefunden worden.

An exuberant, roller - coaster family adventure with a mad - cap cast of all - too - believable characters experiencing their dream holidays and worst nightmares.
