Synopsis

Essef - Dark, erotic Fantasy. Herald Childe has just seen a home movie in which his partner was brutally murdered, his life-fluids drained by a lady with razor-sharp dentures. Childe is a private dick. He's accustomed to sticking his nose into other people's business, and it's usually dirty. But he's not prepared for the gut-churning horrors which await him as he wades through the L.A. smog following up a lead in the most disgusting case of his career. He is plunged into a waking nightmare of sexual brutality and supernatural bestiality; he becomes entangled with a snake-woman; he is seduced by a filthy human sow; and he lays a ghost, only to realize that he's the one getting laid - by a woman working off the frustrations of over a century in ectoplasmic exile. But what can he do? He can hardly tell the police that he's discovered a crowd of sex-mad vampires and werewolves from another universe... Blown: Dark, Erotic Fantasy novel. In this sequel to The Image of the Beast, Herald Childe continues what started out as a murder case - a very gruesome one, admittedly - but which has now become a struggle against the strange and deadly beings who have taken his wife, who threaten his manhood and who threaten mankind itself. His seems a hopeless quest.
