�What we have here is a very high-quality junkie novel that happens to be about a unique case of vampirism.� �Evan Clark, author of Movers. WHEN WORN-OUT MUSICIAN DAN FERRY decides to take a shortcut back to the band's hotel, he picks the wrong dark alley to go down. Within days of being attacked by a bat-like creature, he becomes consumed with the need to drink human blood. Terrified of what will happen if he doesn't get his fix--and terrified of what he'll do to get it--he turns to his best friend and bandmate, Ray Ford, for help. But what the two don't know as they try to keep Dan's situation quiet is that the parasite driving Dan's addiction has the potential to wipe out humankind. Poignant and terrifying, heartfelt and ingenious, Suckers is a story of sacrifice and friendship in the face of an alien contagion that threatens to destroy humanity. Read it today. "Mixing recent apocalyptic and zombie stories with classic vampire legends, Rider has come up with a daring and eminently readable new take on both." � Publisher�s Weekly "Suckers manages to create an almost perfect balance between the tragic, real life, and the modern macabre... One of the most realistic and original novels I have read this year." � A Slice of Horror "As far as apocalypse novels go, this is one of the best I have read." � Dark Matter Zine "The author plays with our expectations of vampiric tales and makes this something totally new." � The Books of Blood "Easy to immerse into and entirely engrossing." � 100% ROCK Magazine "I found myself sat on my own in the dark in the wee small hours, book still clutched in my hands as everyone slept, refusing to sleep till I had finished and finish I did, in one night!" � Scarlet's Web
