There is perhaps nothing more erotic than the potent mixture of danger, darkness, and desire that the vampire represents. Creatures cursed by lust to walk the night, seeking ever more decadent pleasures, vampires are the ultimate sexual beings. In these stories of carnal pleasure and dark magic, erotic writers such as Thomas S. Roche, Catherine Lundoff, and Allison Lonsdale explore the attraction and seductive power of the dark side. One vampire encounters virgin blood, another finds a willing victim with a blood fetish, and yet another mixes the games of dominance and submission with the eternal game of feeding and sex. Assembled by the editor of over 40 erotica anthologies, Blood Surrender presents the most sensual and erotic vampire fiction available.

Yep, another biased opinion... ~ Written on Dec 4, 2005. 8 out of 11 users found this review helpful.
I picked out the stories in this nthology so of course I think they are great, but I thought it would be helpful to tell a little of the philosphy behind them. I've edited several erotic vampire anthologies over the past dozen years, and I've seen every cliche you can imagine. The trick is to find fresh, new interesting takes on vampire myths, and yet to have enough of what makes a vampire recognizable, and sensual and interesting, to satisfy the reader. There are some very intense characters in these stories, and the authors really did a great job of making the vampires sexy, alluring, dominating, etc. It's stories like these that keep me reading the genre and keep me wanting more.
Completely biased opinion. ~ Written on May 30, 2005. 3 out of 5 users found this review helpful.
I have a story in this book, so I'll admit to a baised opinion. My rating is based on my one disappointment with the anthology, and that is that Cecilia Tan didn't contribute. My personal favorite stories were When We Rise by Jason Rubis and Bloodletting by Michelle Blaid - very modern stories - but the traditional treatment by Thomas Roche in Moonlight and Trouble is a deft, lush return to familiar territory.
