Lucienne Diver writes the Latter-Day Olympians urban fantasy series for Samhain, featuring Tori Karacis, a heroine who can, quite literally, stop men in their tracks. Titles thus far include Bad Blood, Crazy in the Blood, Rise of the Blood, Battle for the Blood, Blood Hunt and the *free* prequel story “Trickster Blood”. She also writes the popular Vamped series of young adult novels (think Clueless meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer): Vamped, Revamped, Fangtastic and Fangtabulous. Her short stories have been featured in the Strip-Mauled and Fangs for the Mammaries anthologies edited by Esther Friesner (Baen Books), and the Kicking It anthology edited by Faith Hunter and Kalayna Price (Roc).
