Synopsis

My legal name where I currently reside in the city of Liege, Belgium, in the year 2010 A.D., is Gaspar Valessi, but that is not my real name. The name I was given some 30,000 years ago, when I was born in a Paleolithic settlement in the region that is now called Germany-- the name my father gave me shortly after I was voided, bloody and howling, from my mother's womb-- is Gon. So begins the saga of the immortal Gon, a 30,000 year old vampire. This, the first volume of his memoirs, recounts his human life in prehistoric Germany alongside his companion Brulde and his two wives Eyya and Nyala, and details the fearsome events that lead to his transformation from man to undying monster.A blend of historic fact, fearsome fantasy and sensuality, author Rod Redux pushes the boundaries of fantasy and horror, creating a world that is both mysterious and eerily similar to our own in its depictions of the human-- and inhuman-- condition. Gon, a compassionate yet bloodthirsty monster, asks only to share his life with us, to be our guide through the millennia.

About this title

About the Author

With almost a thousand positive reviews and several #1 best sellers in their category, Joseph Duncan is one of the most highly acclaimed indie authors on Amazon.com. Born and raised in Southern Illinois, Joseph worked as a landscaper, a comic book artist and owned his own business for ten years before trying his hand at writing. His first novel, The Oldest Living Vampire Tells All, was a surprising hit, and allowed Joseph to become a full time author. He has since produced 13 more novels and several short stories, many of which regularly inhabit the best seller charts on Amazon.com. Joseph was offered a publishing contract but turned it down, preferring instead to work independently. His horror and fantasy novels have been favorably compared to the fiction of genre masters like Stephen King, Dean Koontz and Anne Rice, and are often praised for their lush descriptions, interesting wordplay and originality. Though some readers have found his works challenging due to their subversive content and explicit violence and sexuality, Joseph has been a perennial best seller since his debut in 2010.
