Hex Appeal
by P. N. Elrod, Lori Handeland, Rachel Caine, Carrie Vaughn, Ilona Andrews
Fall under the intoxicating spell of their hex appeal...
In the magical world that lies hidden beneath our own, witches and conjurers play deadly games. They know just the right spell to kill a man with one kiss—or raise him back again. And they’re not afraid to exact sweet revenge on those who dare to cross them. But what if you’re the unlucky soul who falls victim to a conjurer’s curse? And if you had the power to cast a magic spell of your own, would you use it?
In this bewitching collection, nine of today’s hottest paranormal authors tell all-new, otherworldly tales. Spellbinding stories featuring bigfoot, albino vampires, professional wizards, resurrected boyfriends and even a sex droid from the twenty- third century named Silicon Lily. But as our conjurers are about to discover, it’s all fun and games until someone gets hexed. And sometimes, even the best spun spells can lead to complete and utter mayhem.

P. N. Elrod's Bio
I’m best known for writing THE VAMPIRE FILES, a series about an undead vampire Jack Fleming whose first case is to solve his OWN murder! There’s 12 books and counting, as well as a number of short stories about his adventures.
In addition to writing, I’ve gone into editing and had the pleasure of working with the top names in urban fantasy with several award-winning collections.
Lately, I’ve just signed to edit a new anthology for St. Martin's called HEX SYMBOLS and signed a 3-book contract with Tor for a new steampunk series, ON HER MAJESTY’S PSYCHIC SERVICE. I’m currently working on the first book, THE HANGED MAN.
I consider myself to be danged lucky to have a job that I love this much!
There’s a lot more info on my website and, yeah, you figured it, I’m on FaceBook. Far too often for my own good! Drop in and hang out!
