Valentine: Book 2

S. P. Somtow

Timmy Valentine is a vampire - he was created magically in an alchemical experiment performed in ancient Pompeii. But unlike most vampires of fiction, Timmy is not an adult - Timmy is forever and always an 11-year-old boy/rock star with a beautiful soprano voice and a face like an angel. This sequel to Vampire Junction finds Brian, PJ, and Terry 10 years after the disappearance of Timmy, remembering the terrible night in Junction and fighting the Gods of Chaos who believe Timmy is still alive.

Valentine: Book 3

S. P. Somtow

Vampire Junction, S. P. Somtow's groundbreaking novel of vampiric horror, introduced Timmy Valentine, a world-famous rock star with the body of a 12 year old boy... and the ageless soul of a bloodthirsty predator. Timmy returned in Valentine, in which he finally shed his undead curse forever. Or did he?

In Vanitas, Timmy Valentine has relinquished his immortality and transferred his vampiric essence to young Angel Todd. Timmy is now an ordinary boy, awakened at last from an ancient nightmare. His new album has just come out, but there's something missing. In a desperate bid to salvage his career, he goes on a world tour. Every stop, though, brings haunting memories of his inhuman past and terrifying manifestations of a blood-drenched future.
