The Gloaming is the first novel in the series and the best place to begin. Michael is a prequel novella set earlier in the same world. It features different characters and can be read independently, though many readers prefer to start with The Gloaming for full context. The sequel, Vânător, continues the wider series narrative.

Now The Gloaming is out there in the world, Jamie is working hard on writing the sequel, Vânător and getting it into ship shape. You can expect it sometime in 2026.

Blood of the Revenants is planned as a trilogy, with room for a couple of additional books about some of your favourite side characters...

Right now, you can read four bonus chapters of The Gloaming, told from Nicholas's POV, available here on the website to download as an ePub. Jamie also has a novella about a new character who will appear in Vânător. His name is Michael, and his story is available to read here on the website for free! However, if you really can't wait for Vânător, then the paperback version of Michael is available on Amazon and includes a bonus chapter from Vânător in the back...

They are books about love. Love and relationships are central to the emotional arc of Blood of the Revenants. However, they are not capital R romance. The stories also explore isolation, moral complexity, power, restraint, and the consequences of supernatural otherness. Love matters deeply, as it always should – but it does not erase conflict or simplify difficult truths.

Yes. The Gloaming contains open-door sex, along with other intimate/heated moments. These scenes serve the emotional and narrative development of the characters.

No. These books are written for adults. They contain explicit content, violence, and dark themes. A detailed content warning is included at the beginning of each book.

Contemporary gothic vampire fiction brings traditional gothic themes into the modern world. It explores transgression, isolation, restraint, and the tension between human and immortal, hunter and hunted, mortal and undying. At its heart, the genre examines the real-world cost of supernatural otherness – and what it means to desire connection when a divide cannot be fully bridged. These are stories of characters hiding in plain sight, haunted by what they are. Key ingredients include: • Supernatural isolation and moral complexity • Restraint that costs something to maintain • Desire that creates as many problems as it solves • Violence with lasting consequences • Relationships built on agency, not destiny • Power examined honestly, not romanticised The genre prioritises atmosphere and psychological truth over spectacle. It favours slow-burn tension, complex characters, and endings that don’t tidy everything away. While rooted in gothic tradition, contemporary gothic vampire fiction may unfold in modern or historical settings, and can range from accessible to richly atmospheric prose. What defines it is not the era, period, or style, but its emotional and moral tension. Readers who appreciate works like The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice, Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo, the gothic tradition of Shirley Jackson and Angela Carter, or films such as Only Lovers Left Alive and Byzantium will likely feel at home.

At the moment, The Gloaming is available as a paperback, hardback or in eBook format. However, Jamie would love to turn it into an audiobook later down the line, but finding someone who can do the accent is easier said than done. IYKYK.
