Hugo, Nebula, and Tiptree award?winning author Suzy McKee Charnas offers
up her lush stories in this compelling retrospective story collection.
In Stagestruck Vampires, the supernatural and the real intertwine
seamlessly. A villainous maestro is redeemed by his lovely, apt pupil in
?Beauty and the Opera or The Phantom Beast." Inside the ?Unicorn
Tapestry," a psychotherapist stalks a vampire. A dazzling performance of
Tosca is marred by a shocking murder during ?A Musical Interlude."
This collection features original work by Charnas?the mystical
novelette, ?Peregrines," and two original essays. Also included is a
collaborative story on vampire themes, ?Advocates," written with Chelsea
Quinn Yarbro, author of the Saint-Germain Chronicles.
